Militarily, there is sufficient economic support behind the military. If we want to judge this military strength, Egypt's military technology and training methods, as well as actual combat and theory are world-class. Thebes, the capital of its ruling center, has been the economic and political center of the world since ancient times.

Diplomatically, although Egyptians do not attach importance to peace, Egypt is not an unfriendly country. No matter what period, Egypt has a good historical background.
