Cairo, Africa.

Cairo is one of the most populated cities of Africa. One of its famous landmarks is the pyramids and the Egyptian Sphinx because of its historical backgrounds, amazing architecture, and outstanding, breath taking view of the Savanna Desert. One of the famous historical things about Egypt is of course the mummies and the curse of mummies upon people for trespassing in their resting place in order to find treasures which lurk for these explorers. The ancient history of Egypt has been spread throughout the world and has been twisted into their own stories and has been made famous by movies based on these historical facts. Islam people in Cairo cannot date other single men's or single women's are not allowed to be together unless they are related. When the birth of a child is accure, they celebrate. But the boys must be circumcised near his birth. The birth of the first son is a very special moment. The mother and father is called Umm and Abu (Mother and father), followed by the sons name. Families will arrange the slaughter of an animal--two animals for boys and one animal for a girl--one week after the birth of the child.
