That's the way the world goes. With the exception of China, all the countries that were the seats of early sophisticated civilizations are not doing great today.

Lesson: Nothing lasts forever. One day the Western World might relinquish its position as the most advanced regiom of the planet to some other region. The countries of the Asia-Pacific are already giving the West a run for its money.

Because knowledge is very transferable and other cultures basically took their knowledge and used them. Especially the Romans.

Egypt was NEVER the ''only civilised'' part of Africa. Go and study African history and stop displaying your ignorance.

Firstly, you desperately need English lessons to improve your writing and vocabulary.

Secondly, your exact words were:

''you supposed to ask How did Nigeria make it as the biggest economy and also the most populous nation in Africa while thousand years back Egypt is the only civilised and also the most populous part of Africa .''

I'll leave others to draw their conclusions. Good luck!
