Religion   Egypt is a Sunni (sometimes referred to orthodox) Muslim country with Islam as its state religion. To most Egyptian Muslims Islam plays a very large and important role in their lives.

The economy of Egypt depends mainly on, tourism, petroleum exports, tourism and agriculture. Over 3 million Egyptians work abroad mainly in Saudi Arabia they contribute back to the Egyptian economy through remittances.
