I AM SURPRİSED THAT SOME HAS PUT TURKEY İN THE SAME CATEGORY WHILE EXPLANİNG THE ARABS. FIRST OF ALL TURKEY İS NOT ARABİC. IT İS THE LAND OF TURKS WHOM SPEAK TURKİSH.
AND EGYPT HAS A VERY HUGE AND OLD HİSTORY . DURİNG THE ANCIENT TİMES , THE NAME COMES FROM THE COPTIC STAGE OF EGYPTİIAN. THE TIMES OF THE PHARAOHS OBVIOUSLY THEY WERE NOT ARABS.
The Thirtieth Dynasty was the last native ruling dynasty during the Pharaonic epoch. It fell to the Persians in 343 BC after the last native pharaoh, King Nectanebo II, was defeated in battle. Later, Egypt fell to the Greeks and Romans, beginning over two thousand years of foreign rule. Before Egypt became part of the Byzantine realm, Christianity had been brought by Saint Mark the Evangelist in the AD first century. Diocletian's reign marks the transition from the Roman to the Byzantine era in Egypt, when a great number of Egyptian Christians were persecuted.
The Byzantines were able to regain control of the country after a brief Persian invasion early in the seventh century, until in AD 639, Egypt was invaded by the Muslim Arabs. The form of Islam the Arabs brought to Egypt was Sunni, though early in this period Egyptians began to blend their new faith with indigenous beliefs and practices that had survived through Coptic Christianity, giving rise to various Sufi orders that have flourished to this day.[11] Muslim rulers nominated by the Islamic Caliphate remained in control of Egypt for the next six centuries, including a period for which it was the seat of the Caliphate under the Fatimids. With the end of the Ayyubid dynasty, a Turco-Circassian military caste, the Mamluks, took control about AD 1250 and continued to govern even after the conquest of Egypt by the Ottoman Turks in 1517.
The Egyptians slowly adopted the Arabic language following the Arab-Muslim conquest of Egypt in the 7th century AD. Up till then, they were speaking Egyptian in its Coptic form. For more than three centuries, there existed a period of Coptic-Arabic bilingualism in Lower Egypt. This trend would last for many more centuries in the south. Arabic may have been already familiar to Egyptians through pre-Islamic trade with Bedouin Arab tribes in the Sinai and the easternmost part of the Nile Delta. Egyptian Arabic seems to have begun taking shape in Fustat, the first Islamic capital of Egypt, and now part of modern-day Cairo.

The demography of the world's countries is contantly changing, since human civilization is dynamic and not static. Just as the population of the USA, for example, today is not composed solely of Red Indians or peoples of similar race, so too has the demography of Egypt undergone change, to the extent that the country now considers itself more Arabic in nature than any other race. It would be interesting to undertake a genetic test to determine what percentage of the present Egyptian population can claim ancestry to the time of the Pharaos. The people at the time of the Pharaos were known to be dark skinned, something present day dark skinned Africans can be proud of.

Nope, Egypt is an Arab country. If you mean that Egypt has its own individual character and qualities, maybe. We are different, but not that different from the Arab world.

It's a Muslim country but not Arabic, because Arabian Countries are Qatar, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Omán, United Arabs Emirates,Kuwait, Bahrein, Irak.
The main and most populated one is Saudi Arabia.
All the other countries not mentioned are not arabs, because they are elder in History, like Irán(ancient Persia), Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey(ancient Otoman Empire), etc

Egypt is an Arabic country in Africa. It is 98% Arab ethnically, and Arabic is its official language. Nassar and Sadat promoted the policy of pan-Arabism.
