Random information on the term ” Capital of Egypt”:
Thinis (Greek: Θίνις Thinis, Θίς This[a] ; Egyptian: Tjenu; Coptic: Ⲧⲓⲛ; Arabic: ثينيس) was the capital city of the first dynasties of ancient Egypt. Thinis remains undiscovered but is well attested by ancient writers, including the classical historian Manetho, who cites it as the centre of the Thinite Confederacy, a tribal confederation whose leader, Menes (or Narmer), united Egypt and was its first pharaoh. Thinis began a steep decline in importance from Dynasty III, when the capital was relocated to Memphis, which was thought to be the first true and stable capital after the unification of old Egypt by Menes. Thinis’s location on the border of the competing Heracleopolitan and Theban dynasties of the First Intermediate Period and its proximity to certain oases of possible military importance ensured Thinis some continued significance in the Old and New Kingdoms. This was a brief respite and Thinis eventually lost its position as a regional administrative centre by the Roman period.
Random information on the term ” Cairo”:
Shubra (Arabic: شبرا, IPA: [ˈʃobɾɑ]; Coptic: .mw-parser-output .script-coptic{font-family:”Sophia Nubian”,”Noto Sans Coptic”,”FreeSerif”,”Quivira”,”Segoe UI Historic”,”Segoe UI Symbol”,”New Athena Unicode”,”MPH 2B Damase”,”Arial Coptic”,”Analecta”,”Antinoou”}ϭⲱⲡⲣⲟ Šopro; also written Shoubra or Shobra) is a district of Cairo, Egypt and it is one of eight districts that make up the Northern Area . Administartively it used to cover the entire area of the three districts of Shubra, Rod el-Farag, and al-Sahel, until it was broken up in 1988. Therefore, many places associated with the original, larger Shubra are known as belonging to it, even though administratively they lie in one of the other two districts.
The larger Shubra is historially related to the city of Shubra al-Kheima, although in the Qalubia governorate immediately to the north of Shubra, and contiguous to it.
Although Shubra is a large city district, the name originally derives from the Coptic word ϭⲱⲡⲣⲟ Šopro, which means a small village, kom (hill), or hamlet, as the area was well known for its rich fields that neighbour the Nile River before it became a part of Cairo. Shubta is a common prefix for many places in Egypt, most of which originated as villages but may today be towns or even cities. For example the villages of Shubra Bekhoum, Quesna, Menoufia, and Shubra Beloula, Qutour, Gharbia, or Qalyubia’s industrial city, Shubra El-Kheima.
