For the region, see Egypt (region).

Egypt is a formable country. It can be formed by nations whose primary culture is Egyptian and their capital is in Cairo (361). This means that naturally only the Mamluks will be able to form them, though a player may change their primary culture to get access to the decision. Egypt does not have unique national ideas, and instead will use the ideas of the nation that formed it.
