Geography

The Great Pyramid of Giza is located in Giza, modern day Cairo. Egypt is mostly a desert, (but there are Oases) it is separated into two parts, black and red, though red is sometimes known as orange or white. Red is the side with more animals and land forms. Black is the tan side, where there are palm trees and few animals. Egypt is extremely hot because it is in the Sahara desert, at night it is surprisingly cold. Oases are common but are slowly going away, people overuse the resources and like endangered animals, go away forever.
