Map of Ancient Egypt, showing the Nile up to the fifth cataract, and major cities and sites of the Dynastic period (c. 3150 BC to 30 BC). Cairo and Jerusalem are shown as reference cities. (CC BY SA Jeff Dahl)

The ancient Egypts are one of the oldest documented cultures, they settled in Northeast Africa and formed first structures like cities and states.
