    Cairo is one of the oldest cities in the world. In 3200 BC, the King of Egypt was unified up and down Egypt. The capital Memphis was established near the west bank and the top of the Delta. Many ancient Egyptian dynasties used this as their rule centers and built pyramids and a large number of tombs nearby.
