Cairo (around 11 million inhabitants) is the capital of Egypt. According to estimates from 2012, the total 1 population of Egypt is 83,335,036. Today the country is organized on five levels. Art. 161 of the 1971 Constitution states that the Arab Republic of Egypt is divided into de jure recognized administrative units. These are Governorates, Centers, Cities, Districts and villages. The Constitution also provides for other legally recognized administrative units to be established where it is in the public inter est.Egypt consists of 27 governorate (fig. 1) and virtuoso metropolis with autonomic character (Luxor), and those governorates contains 184 center Markez, Centers portion may contain one ore more young buck city, and the cities kingdoms contains fellow districts or fellow villages according to the function, area and population of from all(prenominal) one urban settlement.

Cities 78 Districts 4168 Villages Differences amidst Rural and Urban regions in Egypt. Governorates are either fully urban or else an admixture of urban and rural. The official distinction amidst urban and rural is reflected in the lower tiers i. e. fully urban governorates have no regions (Markez) , as the center Markez is natively a conglomeration of villages. Moreover, governorates may comprise fair(a) one city, as in the case of Cairo or Alexandria. Hence, these one-city governorates are solitary(prenominal) divided into districts (urban neighborhoods).

The General Organization for Physical Planning responsibilities10 Shape 4) self illustration of the Supreme Council for Planning and Urban development Responsibilities As it shown in shape 4, the GOPP has almost the province of every thing related to planning and urban development in Egypt, on all the scales and levels, even when they tried to breakdown this load and decentralize the process by creating the GOPP regional centers they kept the highe r word in the GOPPs hand. That lead to a weak planning process and very long time taken to start and finish a strategic development plan for any village or city. (9) craft 5. in the physical regulation total of the law 119.

Source Information and decision support center, Egypts description by information (2007), vol. 1. In 2004 GOPP decided to breakdown the Egyptian planning regions into 7 regions according to the existing economical regions, each region consists of more than 2 governorates, and they were distributed according to the main function of each governorate.That initiative purposed to decentralize the planning process and to distribute the work load on the new centers, As each center supposed to be more interfered in the region problems by coordinating with the local governorate directorate units (one in each governorate) and coach a primary development plan for each city and village in the region with the coordination and cooperation of the local planning units and assemblies. So those centers are the GOPPs arms, the link between the GOPP and the very local planning units.But still those centers dont have the power to approve a development plan or a program, GOPP has the upper hand to approve or refuse any development plan. So it was a decentralization of the work load not in the decision making process but its a step in the right path of decentralization. * For more details read Annex 1 Egyptian Administrative And Planning Systems 16 Egyptian planning Systems 4. 4.

The Number of the economic regions and their capitals The presidential decree No 495 for the year 1977 established eight economic regi ons and identified a capital for each region. These regions were 1) Cairo Region Cairo is the capital. The region shall comprise Cairo and Giza governorates. 2) Alexandria Region Alexandria is the capital. The region shall comprise Alexandria and Behira governorates as well as the Nobareyya area. 3) Delta Region Tanta is the capital. The region shall comprise the governorates of Monufeyya, Gharbeyya, Kafr Al-Sheikh, Damietta and Daqahleyya. 4) Suez Canal Region Ismailia is the capital.The region shall comprise the governorates of Sinai, Port Said, Ismailia, Suez and Sharqeyya, as well as the northern part of the Red Sea governorate up to, and including, the Gulf of Suez. 5) Matrouh Region (MERGED WITH ALEXANDRA REGION) Matrouh is the capital. The region shall comprise the governorate of Matrouh. 6) Northern Upper Egypt Region Menia is the capital. The region shall comprise the governorates of Bani Suef, Menia and Fayoum, as well as a northern part of the Red Sea governorate. 7) Asyo ut Region Asyout is the capital. The region shall comprise the governorates of Asyout and New Valley. 8) Southern Upper Egypt Region Aswan is the capital. The region shall comprise the governorates Sohag, Qena and Aswan, as well as the southern part of the Red Sea governorate.In 1986, a prime ministerial decree number 181 was issued to merge Matrouh region with Alexandria region, and to have Alexandria is the capital of this new region. This meant that the number of regions decreased from eight to seven. It is worth mentioning that in the same year, the prime minster issued decree no 197 to establish a perpetration to examine the governorates composing economic regions in Egypt, however the committee did not recommend any changes in the composition and boundaries of the economic regions. In other words, the authoritative number and composition of economic regions in Egypt still follows the last amendments made in decree number 181 for the year 1986.
