Blank Map of Egypt Worksheets

Printable maps of Egypt's 27 governorates. Most Egyptians live in the Nile Valley and the Delta, where the governorates are small and tightly packed, while five frontier governorates – Matrouh, New Valley, Red Sea, North Sinai and South Sinai – cover most of the land. The label-it sheet numbers every governorate, with the answer lines on page two.

How the Egypt worksheets work

The Delta governorates around Cairo are numbered with leader lines where there is no room inside them. There is no capitals sheet: many governorates share their name with their capital, and the Delta capitals are too close together to mark clearly.

On the label-it and capitals sheets, pupils write the names on the numbered lines – or, where there are ten places or fewer, in the empty answer box joined to each place; the labelled map doubles as a reference sheet. All sheets are crisp black line maps with light shading, so they photocopy and print cleanly in black and white.
