He attributes it to the high productivity of Egyptian soil which allowed for increased agricultural growth . The urban population was much lower , 233 @,@ 100 , consisting of 5 @.@ 7 % of the total Egyptian population . The largest cities were Cairo ( pop . 60 @,@ 000 ) , Alexandria ( pop . 30 @,@ 000 ) , Qus ( pop . 25 @,@ 000 ) , Damietta ( pop . 18 @,@ 000 ) , Fayyum ( pop . 13 @,@ 000 ) , and Bilbeis ( pop . 10 @,@ 000 ) . Numerous smaller cities dotted the Nile River . Among the latter were Damanhur , Asyut , and Tanta .

 For thousands of years , the capital of Egypt was moved with different cultures through multiple locations up and down the Nile , such as Thebes and Memphis , depending on which dynasty was in power . After Alexander the Great conquered Egypt around 331 BC , the capital became the city named for him , Alexandria , on the Mediterranean coast . This situation remained stable for nearly a thousand years . After the army of the Arabian Caliph Umar captured the region in the 7th century , shortly after the death of Muhammad , he wanted to establish a new capital . When Alexandria fell in September 641 , Amr ibn al @-@ As , the commander of the conquering army , founded a new capital on the eastern bank of the river .
