L C Hey there, well I do not live in Egypt anymore now but I grew up there and lived the first 27 years of my life there. Honestly it greatly depends on what “social class” you are coming from, your family background, level of income and education is crucial to how you see things (liberal/conservative) and how comfortable your life is. Majority of Egyptians are in general not that religious or they are but sometimes in a superficial way that fortunately doesn’t stick to every idiotic detail that makes life unbearable (eg: Afghanistan-style). Gays, as every society, are not that uncommon but they still don’t dare to publicly state it unless it happens within closed circles of like-minded people as it is still considered an “affront” to manhood.

Many of the most important sites were offered to countries which could house them in a proper manner. One of these is the Temple of Dendur in New York; the large room that houses the temple was built specifically to house it, with other Egyptian artifacts sharing the large space. To this day it is one of the most striking of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Egyptian collection.

Thank you for acknowledging the Nubians, Africans and being unbiased. It’s such an atrocity that they seek to eradicate African heritage from the Egyptian timeline.

Waiting for the comment of "current egyptians are not original egyptians". This joke never gets old.😂

@@amrkhaledbelal8892 stop with your nonsense. There is no evidence of Arab or Muslim presence in Misri before caliphate invasions and eventual conquests. Modern "Egyptians" did not write in hieroglyphics nor worship the old gods of Egypt.

Not gonna happen unless you find a way to make Egypt Eurasian again.

[@tommyd.3927]

So modern-egypt gets its independence in 1922, and the British leave Egypt in June 1956. Which makes modern-egypt independence 100th year anniversary in 2022.

Egypt is maybe the only country known to have its slaves became its masters without being freed, kind weird.

[@Heo_Ashrafenko]

The problem is the translation of the word slave from arabic to english. It was more like servant, free will and free thinking. Slave was how europeans treated africans

I would like to learn more about the Tulanid's as in how did that work with their merc's and slaves ordering them around? Seems odd but from what I have learned about history, nothing is out of the question.

[@tnasr3254]

11:22 The Mamluks leaders were all killed in the famous historical event known as 'The Massacre of the Citadel' where Muhammed Ali invited all the Mamluk leaders to the Cairo citadel to make peace with them. They were treated well as part of the deception then made to walk in a narrow area, the gates were shut in front and behind them and about 500 were then killed; all but maybe one managed to escape, the Mamluks were hunted down all over Egypt, and about 3,000 overall were killed, it was the end of their dynasty and the beginning of Muhammed Ali's
