The Egyptian Pound, abbreviated EGP, is the official currency of the Arab Republic of Egypt (Hayes, 2022). The symbol of the Egyptian pound is E£ (Hayes, 2022). An Egyptian pound is worth roughly around $0.51 American dollars. Another known name for the Egyptian pound is the Baku, or pack, for 1,000 EGP notes. The overall health of the economy in Egypt heavily relies on agriculture, petroleum, and tourism (Hayes, 2022). Most of Egypt’s economy is now controlled by Egypt’s military (Sayigh, 2019). The Egyptian military helps provide civilian markets with affordable goods, such as food which raises revenue for the state treasury (Sayigh, 2019).The relationship between both the Egyptian military and Egypt’s infrastructure can be observed over the decades.
