 EGYPTIAN EMPIRE
 Egypt, Um-El-Dunya - literally translated as Mother of
the World, is an Arabic expression which Egyptians and
others have used over history in reference to the
country's ancient civilization. Egypt is the cradle of
ancient civilization nesting art and temples. The
beautiful stretches of picturesque beaches are a magnet
for sun-lovers. The Middle Kingdom was a golden age of
peace, prosperity, and advances in the arts and
architecture.
 During the New Kingdom, Egypt acquired new territory
and reached the height of its power. • Akhenaton tried to
change Egypt’s religion, while Tutankhamen is famous
for the treasures found in his tomb. • Under Ramses II,
Egypt regained territory and built great temples, but the
empire fell by 1150 B.C.
 EGYPTIAN PERIOD
 Egyptian period - The phenomenon of the tourism
industry in Egypt developed during ancient times. The
ancient Egyptians practiced many recreational activities
that related to sports tourism in various forms. In the
Middle Ages, Egypt witnessed the best periods of
tourism as a result of travel activity and the expansion of
the Arab touristic circle.
ANCIENT GREEK EMPIRE
 Ancient Greece (Greek: Ἑλλάς, romanized: Hellás) -
was a northeastern Mediterranean civilization, existing
from the Greek Dark Ages of the 12th–9th centuries BC
to the end of classical antiquity (c. AD 600), that
comprised a loose collection of culturally and
linguistically related city-states and other territories. For
this reason, Classical Greece is generally considered the
cradle of Western civilization, the seminal culture from
which the modern West derives many of its founding
archetypes and ideas in politics, philosophy, science, and
art.

ROMAN EMPIRE
 The Roman Empire - was the greatest ancient empire of
Europe. At its height in 117 AD, it ruled over large parts
of Europe and much of North Africa and the Middle
East. It was effectively split into two empires - one ruled
from Rome and the other from Constantinople. In 395
AD, Theodosius I divided the Imperial administration by
bequeathing the imperial office jointly to his sons
Arcadius and Honorius. Shortly thereafter, Rome would
be sacked for the first time in eight centuries, by the
Visigoths in 410. The Western Empire deteriorated due
to various factors, but the Eastern Empire endured and
recovered.
