Egypt borders on the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea. The Nile, the world's longest river, flows through Egypt on its way to the Mediterranean Sea. Most major cities, including about 99% of the population, lie along the Nile River. Most of western Egypt is desert. Winds blowing the sand can create sand dunes hundreds of feet high. Egypt still has many reminders of its ancient civilization. Some of the pyramids are over 4,500 years oldIn Ancient Egypt the King, or Pharaoh, built temples to the gods. The King would prepare for his death by building a great tomb or temple to be worshipped as a god. These are the great pyramids.
