About 10 percent of Egyptians are Copts, one of the oldest branches of the Christian religion. Egypt's population is growing rapidly. This puts strains on Egypt's resources, since most people live in a narrow strip of land along the Nile River. Having so many people in such a small area can cause overcrowding, from schools to apartment buildings to hospitals. Children are highly valued in Egypt, especially in rural areas where they help on family farms. Children are also expected to look after their parents in their old age.]]> 2021-03-01 09:23:05 UTC https://padlet.com/elshoz125/42m0aml4687x04wx/wish/1252169099 NATURE elshoz125 https://padlet.com/elshoz125/42m0aml4687x04wx/wish/1252174181
Egypt is home to a wide variety of animals and plants, including jackals, gazelles, crocodiles, and cobras. The best places to see Egypt's wildlife are in its more than 20 protected regions, which include oases, deserts, mountains, coastal areas, river islands, and wetlands.

Egyptians have always been close to the natural world. The ancient Egyptians left paintings and carvings of large animals like elephants, hippos, leopards, and cheetahs. These animals were once common in Egypt, but they are now rare or extinct because of hunting and habitat loss.

Egypt's geography, population, history, and military strength have made it highly influential in the region. Egypt is a democratic republic, although some critics claim that it is not truly democratic. Until 2005, there was never more than one presidential candidate to vote for.

Along with oil and gas exports, Egypt's tourism industry remains a key part of its economy. Visitors flock to the country to see ancient monuments like the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx.

This is how they may have done it. The size of the Great Pyramid of Giza]]> 2021-03-01 09:58:20 UTC https://padlet.com/elshoz125/42m0aml4687x04wx/wish/1252280789 WHAT KIND OF STONE DID THEY USE TO BUILD THE PYRIMIDS? elshoz125 https://padlet.com/elshoz125/42m0aml4687x04wx/wish/1252285533 Limestone was one of the materials used to build the Pyramids of Giza. It formed the bulk of the materials used in the construction of the pyramids and rough limestone was utilized in the core of the pyramid. White limestone, which is finer, was used to coat the interior walls and as the main material for the outer casing.]]> 2021-03-01 09:59:55 UTC https://padlet.com/elshoz125/42m0aml4687x04wx/wish/1252285533 WHY DID THEY USE LIMESTONE? elshoz125 https://padlet.com/elshoz125/42m0aml4687x04wx/wish/1252304399 The low-grade limestone that was used in the core of the pyramids is found in huge quantities in Egypt, and it was found near the building sites during the pyramid construction era. Workers extracted the stone in blocks by marking out crevices with just enough room for them to be cut into blocks and transported to the sites.

The stones themselves were mined from a quarry just south of the pyramid, and researchers believe that their journey across the desert was made easier by wetting the sand first. But that only explains how the stones got from one location to another, not how they were then lifted high into the air and deposited in an enormous triangle.
