You can't attribute Ummayad (Damascus Based) victories to Morocco since at the time Morocco did not exist.
Almohad and Almoravid are Maghrebi dynasties which can be applied to Morocco. Btw the Almoravid claimed Arabian ancestry, but leader was obviously Berber since his nisba was Sanhaji.

They could be doing much better, especially considering their long history and head start. It is quite a shame that their country is doing so poorly today. They should have been at least on Iran's level of development.

Funnily enough, most of the Egyptians I know are actually anti-Islam. They think it's stopping them from recreating the glory of Ancient Eygpt but will only communicate in Arabic.

Interesting people

1. Egypt(Everyone knows why.)

2. Morocco(Tariq ibn Ziyad's famous conquest of Hispania; Almoravid & Almohad Empires; Kingdom of Mauretania and held their ground against the Ottoman invaders & desired a united Maghreb.)

3. Ethiopia(Kindom of Axum.)

4. Sudan(Kingdom of Kush/Meroe)

Egyptians could revive the Egyptian language if they have the will to do so.

It's not a popular idea because Egyptians wrongly intertwine Arab identity with Islam just like the Sudanese etc.

How practical would that be? Hebrew was revived because it was used for Jewish liturgy.

You can't revive Egyptian, its simply incomparable to Arabic.

The only people yearning to bring Ancient Egyptian culture back is the wealthy liberal Egyptians. 90-95% of the country is still very much pro Arab and pro-Islam.

Yep in free elections they vote for Muslim brotherhood. Rich young Liberals always want to placate Europeans for some reason.

Most of the Egyptians I've run into in Toronto make it clear they're not Arabs.

Egyptian/Coptic is the liturgical language of the Egyptian(Copitc) Orthodox Church. It's spoken mainly by Priests and those types of people.

If the Egyptians ever wanted to revive a more indigenous cultural identity then it can be done, since the language has been preserved by the Church just like how Hebrew was preserved by the Rabbis.

Why would Muslims adopt the Coptic language (which isn't ancient Egyptian)?

Historic Achievements: Literature, Art, Military Prowess, Peak Power, Relevance are the categories I'm using.

1. Egypt
2. Morocco
3. Ethiopia
4. Tunisia
5. Sudan
6. Algeria
7. Mali

Tunisia should be the 2, since it once tired to conquer Rome, and it was about to do it.

Coptic/Egyptian is the latest stage of the Egyptian language. Just like how Modern English is the latest stage of the English language & is very different from Old English/Anglo-Saxon but still a direct descendent.

Reminds me of a similar group on this site with their cushitic nonsense.
