Egypt Flag

We carry authentic Egypt Flags in both indoor and outdoor varieties. Our flags are proudly made in the United States from durable nylon and are printed with vibrant long-lasting inks. The Egypt national flag is often displayed at embassies, outside of businesses associated with Egypt, and at the homes of people who take great pride in their Egyptian heritage.

Our indoor flags are finished with a pole hem and your choice of with or without golden fringe. Gold fringe is the traditional way to display an indoor flag, however, some people choose without fringe for a simple and clean look that is also less expensive. If you are looking for a complete indoor presentation set, our Build Your Own Indoor International Flag Set program allows you to select a durable nylon indoor Egypt Flag and choose between premium quality poles, bases, and ornaments, and tassel. For indoor applications, most buyers choose a 3ft. x 5ft. flag with an 8ft. pole, however, if you have a low ceiling, you may opt for a 7ft. pole, which is designed to work with drop ceilings. If you are looking for a very substantial international flag display, our 4ft. x 6ft. indoor flags can be paired with a 9ft. pole for our largest indoor display option.

Our outdoor international flags are finished with a canvas header and brass grommets and are offered in four sizes: 2ft. x 3ft., 3ft. x 5ft., 4ft. x 6ft., and 5ft. x 8ft., to fit any sized flagpole. Typically, outdoor flags are flown outside of government organizations, businesses, and institutions on in-ground and wall-mount flagpoles, however, some people also buy these flags to display their international pride at home. If you are looking for a wall-mount Egypt flag set to display outside of your home, our Build Your Own Outdoor International Flag Set program will allow you to choose between premium quality 6ft. poles and brackets to display the Egypt Flag on your front porch. Outdoor flags can also be displayed indoors on interior walls of your home with screws anchored in the wall to attach to the grommets.

In addition to the flags we offer for purchase, we maintain an archive of the audio and lyrics of the Egypt National Anthem, historical information about the Egypt flag, demographic data about Egypt, and free high resolution images of the Egypt flag for use in projects and on websites.

Regardless of your application, we are looking forward to working with you to provide the required flags, flagpoles, and hardware for your application. If you need assistance, please reach out to us by phone, email, or chat, and we will be happy to help.



History of the Egypt Flag

The Egypt Flag features an iconic design which has been copied by other countries looking to demonstrate their independence. It consists of three horizontal bands, all in the same proportion. The top band is red, the center white, and the bottom black.

Egypt's official identity is the Arab Republic of Egypt. The country was formed in 1952 after a revolutionary war against the British Empire. The red band at the top represents the time before this war. The white middle band says that the war itself was bloodless, unlike Egypt's previous occupations. The black bottom symbolizes freedom and the end of oppression at the hands of foreign imperialists.

Located on the Nile River, Egypt is one of the world's longest established countries. Although situated in an otherwise dry part of the African continent, the land immediately surrounding the Nile River is suitable for agriculture.

Egypt is world-famous as the home of the pyramids, however the country offers much more than just these large physical monuments. The country is also home to ancient writings known as hieroglyphs, which are pictorial symbols which were carved in relief onto stone, temple walls, and monuments.

With such a long history, Egypt has been under the rule of many empires. These include the Greeks, Romans, Ottomans, and British. The Egyptian Flag symbolizes the country's independence. Iraq and Syria have national flags based on the same color scheme, however, Egypt was the first country to adopt this red, black, and white color-scheme.

Egypt is a large country with a unique geographical position bordering Israel, Sudan, Libya, and Jordan. To the north of the country is the Mediterranean Sea, located near the city of Alexandria. The country also borders the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba. Its most famous waterway is the Suez Canal, through which much of the Western world's oil is transported.

Egypt is a land of astonishing beauty, history, and culture. The Nile River and its delta are home to most of its population of about 95 million people. The rest of the country is largely desert, making Egypt a sparsely populated country by area.

Egypt National Anthem

My Country, My Country, My Country (Bilady, Bilady, Bilady)

Listen

Lyrics

My country, my country, my country.
You have my love and my heart.
My country, my country, my country,
You have my love and my heart.

Egypt! O mother of all lands,
My hope and my ambition,
And on all people
Your Nile has countless graces

My homeland, my homeland, my homeland,
My love and my heart are for thee.
My homeland, my homeland, my homeland,
My love and my heart are for thee.

Egypt, land of bounties
You are filled with the ancient glory
My purpose is to repel the enemy
And on God I rely

My country, my country, my country,
My love and my heart are for thee.
My country, my country, my country,
My love and my heart are for thee.

Egypt! Most precious jewel,
A pearl on the brow of eternity!
O my homeland, be for ever free,
Safe from every foe!

My homeland, my homeland, my homeland,
My love and my heart are for thee.
My homeland, my homeland, my homeland,
My love and my heart are for thee.

Egypt! Noble are thy children,
Loyal, and guardians of the reins.
We will be war and peace
With their unity and with mine.

My homeland, my homeland, my homeland,
My love and my heart are for thee.
