Egypt Excursions
Egypt officially the Arab Republic of Egypt, is a country mainly in North Africa, with the Sinai Peninsula forming a land bridge in Southwest Asia. Egypt is thus a transcontinental country, and a major power in Africa, the Mediterranean Basin, the Middle East and the Muslim world. Covering an area of about 1,010,000 square kilometers (390,000 sq mi), Egypt is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Gaza Strip and Israel to the northeast, the Red Sea to the east, Sudan to the south and Libya to the west.
Egypt is one of the most populous countries in Africa and the Middle East. The great majority of its estimated 80 million people live near the banks of the Nile River, in an area of about 40,000 square kilometers (15,000 sq mi), where the only arable land is found. The large areas of the Sahara Desert are sparsely inhabited. About half of Egypt's residents live in urban areas, with most spread across the densely populated centres of greater Cairo, Alexandria and other major cities in the Nile Delta.

Sharm el Sheikh has forever been a coveted township due to its strategic location. Situated at the extreme tip of the Sinai Peninsula, overlooking the Strait of Tiran and providing easy accessibility to both the Gulf of Aqaba/Gulf of Eilat and the Gulf of Suez, the possessing Sharm el Sheikh has always meant owning a naval bastion of advantage. This city has been a major port. Gold trade flourished in the Sharm el Sheikh due to its location on teh Red Sea. It also commanded enormous importance as it was the gateway to Jabal Musa, where Moses is believed to have been bestowed with the Ten Commandments. This led to Israel invading the city in 1956 and again in 1967. On both occasions, the city was restored to Egypt (1957 and 1982 respectively) under international pressure.
