Egypt introduced to mankind one of the oldest political and administrative systems when the first central state was established at the banks of the Nile. In modern times, the world has derived from Egypt the institutions and modern administrative systems as well as the formulas of constitution, parliament, responsible government and judicial authority since the 19th century. Today, Egypt lives a new phase of political and democratic development aiming at more deepening of democratic practice, enhancing freedoms and laying down the state of law, institutions and respect of human rights.
