    1、Unlike the Chinese, who see punctuality as a sign of respect, the egyptians rarely act on the appointed time, often verbally saying "please wait five minutes." What the egyptians call five minutes can be 30 minutes without seeing anyone. In China, if a subordinate makes an appointment with a superior, it is regarded as an act of disrespect for the leader if the subordinate is late or breaks the appointment. Egypt is predominantly Muslim about 90% of its population,and almost all of its Muslims are Sunni.The most of Chinese are non-believers.Most people in European countries are Christians.

    2、Like China, Egypt has a long history. Egyptians are honest and passionate, and they face the harsh realities of life with a sense of humor. Islam is the state religion of Egypt. Muslims pray many times a day.

    3、From a cultural point of view, Chinese culture is multi-ethnic, and Chinese culture is composed of multi-ethnic groups in the long-term development and integration, while the culture of Egypt is single, but both have a long cultural history. From an architectural point of view, most of the architectural culture in China is made of wood, while the Egyptian one uses stone to make buildings. In terms of power and leaders, the power of the Pharaoh is limited to secular power, while divine power is in the hands of the priestly class. At the same time, the powers of Pharaoh and his ministers are relative, not absolute. China, on the other hand, is not quite the same. There is no special priestly class in China, and the so-called theocracy is only one of the many powers of emperors.

    4、There are three social classes in Egypt: upper, middle, and lower. Everyone has something to contribute to society and no skill is considered unnecessary.And in classes in England is analyzed from the aspects of economy, society and culture.Thoseare income, savings, real estate value. Social assets, on the other hand, consist mainly of social contacts. In Germany, classes are divided into eight categories: occupation, income, income source, education, lifestyle, religious belief, political attitude and values. On the basis of these eight indicators, walter divided the social members into six categorie.

    5、About the Fatalism, which is closely linked to Islam. It has religious, fate is unpredictable and people's destiny in our own hands, only struggling, judging correctly the choice to grasp the fate of life.In ancient China, there was a saying that "life and death have destiny" and "riches and honor lie in heaven". In ancient Greece and Rome, there was also the idea of "obeying fate".

    If we only talk about the form of burial, the Chinese people call it being buried in the earth. On the basis of the tomb, the part higher than the ground is called a grave.
    The egyptians put bodies in pyramids, above the ground, so to speak, buried.

    Egyptians like to eat sweets. The last course of a formal banquet or a rich family dinner is sweets. Egyptians (Muslims all believe that "the right is better than the left". The right is auspicious. We should start from the right hand and the right foot to do things. We must use the right hand to shake hands, eat and deliver things. We should wear the right sleeve first, and the right foot first when wearing shoes. We should step on the right foot first when entering the house and mosque. 3. 5, 7 and 9 are the numbers people like, taboo 13, I think it is negative.
