The Egypt revolution of 25 January 2011 was aimed at ending the regime of Mohamed Hosni Mubarak who had been the president of the country for quite some time.

This paper considers the problems, such as how sexual harassment and flirting become interchangeable in a social context and lead to suppression of sexual harassment, when there are no significant definitions that delineate them.

By observations and collating anecdotal data, a survey of the factors that could potentially be regarded as crossing over the line of flirtations and treading on sexual harassment are listed. Offline and Online encounters are considered for this purpose. The paper finds ...

Introduction

The pyramids of Egypt are undeniably full of mysteries, especially regarding how they were managed to be built. However, it seems easier to focus on the number of pyramids, instead of their architecture or engineering, because of the existence of historical texts and archaeological data found within these pyramids that could explain their purpose (Rawlison & Gilman 59-67).
Most historians and scientists agree that the pyramids were made as a monument for a deceased pharaoh. The pyramids would serve as the ruler’s palace in the afterlife, so they were made with highly decorated rooms and passages filled with worldly possessions. ...

Discussing the Great Sphinx of Egypt

ABSTRACT
The Sphinx is one of the most famous images of the Ancient World. However, despite its immense, stone image, the Sphinx has and remains a great mystery to layman and experts from many different fields.

It is likely much older than previously thought and therefore not built when it had traditionally thought to have built. There are theories that work to explain the Sphinx. However, the only thing that we can be absolutely certain of is that the Sphinx is a fantastical ...

The ancient Egyptians were skilled artisans, pottery and ceramics was one of the fields that they excelled. Pottery was initially practiced for functional reasons rather that the decorative reasons although the decorations in some of the vases is quite remarkable.

Introduction

The Muslim Brotherhood refers to the transnational political and religious group that was created in Egypt by the Islamic scholar Hassan al-Banna on the basis of the belief that Islam is a way of life and not simply a religion.

The military controls much of the political and economic state of Egyptian affairs. Throughout history, the images of Egypt's revolution show that the Egyptian military supported the civil disobedience in Tahrir Square. The recent events in Egypt show that Egyptian military forces maintain opposition to terrorism. Some Egyptians believe that the Muslim Brotherhood can gain unity amongst the Islamic countries in the future and create a united country and free Palestine. However, the fall of Hosni Mubarak, the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), brought the military body to avow a peaceful conversion of authority within a democratic system. This fact ...

Another different form of a dramatization on the life of a woman who was attributed for the downfall of Mark Anthony also graces the opera house under Jules Massenet’s Cléopâtre. While there had been numerous presentation on the life of Cleopatra ...

If you believe the archaeologists and historians, art itself emerged in the Upper Paleolithic. In those days, a woman was the personification of the continuation of life and fertility - hence hypertrophy secondary sexual characteristics of Paleolithic Venuses. Ancient "Venus" - are usually small figurines from mammoth ivory, antler, stone, clay and ash. Sculptures made of clay mixtures are the most ancient examples of ceramics. Primitive female figures, being very far from real resemblance to nature (a statement of this fact are some rock paintings depicting women muscular and mobile), they suggest that primitive sculptors created image of the character, summarizing ...

Introduction

The rise of the Spring Revolution in Egypt marked a new discussion of the role that social media has played in creating political and social mobilization.

As described by Dunn (n.d.) in his article “A Short Introduction to The Pyramids of Egypt”, the well known pyramids at Giza in Egypt have been one of the most famous man-made objects for many centuries. Although they are just a few (eight in total) of more than a hundred pyramids that were built in Egypt. Most experts agree that they were built as tombs for their kings and queens, but possibly also were connected with the worship of Ra (or Re) their sun god. That idea apparently stems from the resemblance of the pyramid shape to a mound (the Benben) that ...

Once in a while, it is possible to turn to a television station like PBS and stumble upon a National Geographic documentary featuring the pyramids of ancient Egypt.

In Egypt, the archaeologists and forensic scientists have found bones of many people buried right beside the multi-dimensional triangles and other structures. They have questioned the role and status of these people who seemed ...

It was not until 1945 that the two super powers found themselves with enormous power and intense rivalry that might have appealed to third ...

The Arab Springs and Karl Marx’s Theory of Capitalism

Introduction
Sociology resonates around analysis and observation of social relations. It goes further than that and explains occurrences in life and their remedies. In the field of sociology, Karl Marx occupies an important niche for his appreciated contribution in terms of analysing, explaining and predicting societal events and outcomes. One would remember that Karl Marx opposed the concept of capitalism and predicted that it would crumble down to socialism before finally settling on communism. Indeed, it is also historically recorded that Karl Marx was the face and father of communism. His original theory has been adjusted by contemporary ...

Yesterday was the fifth day of December 2012. This day will be remembered as a dark fateful day in the books of Egyptian history.

Yesterday, it was the Islamist youths battling the secular political faction. Today, tension prevails in Cairo. Still, the situation is expected to get worse. Thus is the situation in Egypt.

The Egyptian Revolution of 2011

Totalitarianism and dictatorship has been a large part of the Middle East for a long time; due to lack of organization by the people who wish for greater freedom in their own country, it was nearly impossible to foment a successful revolution that would facilitate change. However, in the case of Egypt in 2011, an increase in resolve, as well as greater connectivity due to the Internet and social media, allowed the Egyptian people to rise up against their president and demand he be removed from power.

The lead-up to the Egyptian Revolution stems all the way back to the rise to ...
