Cairo is the capital of Egypt and its population makes it the second city in Africa (behind Lagos) and the first in the Middle East. However, its urban area is the largest on the African continent. It is located on the banks of the Nile as well as on some adjacent islands in the north of the country. To the west is the city of Giza and its ancient necropolis of Memphis on the Giza Plateau, with its three great pyramids including the Great Pyramid of Cheops. To the south is the site of the ancient Egyptian city of Memphis.

 

In 639, Amr ibn al-As, the Muslim conqueror of Egypt, founded the city of Fustat on the right bank of the Nile. Under the first Abbasid caliphs, the city extended into the suburb of al-'Aksar.

 

In 969, Jawhar, conquered Egypt in the name of the Fatimid caliph al-Mu'izz. He built a new city al-Qahirah, which includes the already existing neighborhoods. In 973, the Fatimid caliphs settled in Cairo. They founded the university and the al-Azar mosque there.

 

In 1176, Saladin had the city walls rebuilt in stone, had the citadel built and the city enlarged to the south.

 

In the fifteenth century the Mamelukes government the city which knows a great economic and cultural boom with the construction of many mosques, madrasahs (colleges) and palaces.

 

At the beginning of the sixteenth century, the Turkish Ottoman Sultan Selim I destroyed the power of the Mamelukes. Under Ottoman rule, the city stagnated, because the political center was now in Istanbul.

 

In the second half of the 19th century, the viceroy of Egypt Ismail Pasha modernized the city on the model of Paris of the Second Empire.

 

Since the city does not stop expanding, in particular towards the west, where its expansion reaches to the archaeological site of the Pyramids. The Cairo tower was built in 1961, on the top floor of the tower is a wonderful panoramic restaurant;

 

The municipality of Cairo has 9.9 million inhabitants but its urban area brings together around 24 million. The inhabitants are called the Cairotes. They represent more than a quarter of the Egyptian population.

 

In the second half of the twentieth century the city experienced a considerable expansion, the population was quadrupled. The expansion came at the expense of good agricultural land in the delta and the Nile valley. To control urban expansion, new towns were created in the desert surroundings of the city; they are occupied by the middle classes and the well-to-do social classes of Cairo society.

 

Cairo is the economic, political and cultural center of Egypt.

 

Close to the Nile is the modern business district. Large towers house hotels, central Egyptian government departments, offices of banks and foreign companies.

 

The historic city center is at the foot of the hills on the right bank of the Nile. It is dominated by the citadel. The ocher color of these districts contrasts with the color of the districts of the modern city. Residential buildings are raised by often illegal dwellings built on the terraced roofs of buildings. These districts are mostly inhabited by a poor population.

 

The city developed by welcoming the Egyptians driven from the countryside by the rural exodus. For them the capital is the hope of finding work (almost half of the jobs in the Egyptian private sector are concentrated there). Space being reduced, makeshift constructions were built even in cemeteries (such as that of the City of the Dead). The shanty towns whose occupants live in deplorable hygienic conditions are extremely widespread, especially in the eastern part of the city.

 

Urban concentration causes significant problems in automobile traffic but also causes significant pollution.
