Mirror of Erised "Is this all real? Or has this been happening inside my head?"

The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source. The Harry Potter Wiki is written from the perspective that all information presented in canon is true (e.g., Hogwarts really existed), and, as such, details contained in this article may differ from real world facts.

"We tried to shut Percy in a pyramid. But Mum spotted us."
— George Weasley[src]

Egypt is an African country in north-east Africa, and is the earliest place where magic has been recorded. In its society, wizards and witches were held in high esteem. Egyptian wizards also had a tendency to place curses on tombs, which Gringotts Curse Breakers try to break. The capital of Egypt is Cairo. The Nile River runs through here. Egypt is most famous for its three magnificent pyramids, one of which nearly got Percy Weasley as a permanent resident (courtesy of his brothers) had his mother not intervened.

Magical Education

Egyptian witches and wizards may attend Uagadou School of Magic.

Known residents

Bill Weasley worked in Egypt as a Curse Breaker before taking a desk job in England. The Weasley family visited him there and also toured some of the Egyptian tombs. One of the pyramids that the family toured was full of skeletons of Muggles who had broken in and had "grown extra heads and stuff."

Hassan Mostafa is from Egypt.

Phoenixes and Sphinxes are native to Egypt.
