Egyptians
The Egyptians (Egyptian: ; Coptic: ni.ramenkīmi; Arabic: مِصريّون ; Masri: مَصريين ) are a North African ethnic group native to Egypt. Egyptian identity is rooted in the lower Nile Valley, the small strip of cultivatable land stretching from the First Cataract to the Mediterranean Sea and enclosed by vast deserts. This unique geography has been the basis of the development of Egyptian society in antiquity.
