Coptic community

The Coptic community primarily consists of Coptic Christians, the largest Christian group in Egypt, with roots dating back to the early centuries of Christianity. They follow the Coptic Orthodox Church, characterized by distinct liturgical traditions, liturgical language (Coptic and Arabic), and religious practices. Despite being a minority in Egypt, they have a rich cultural heritage, including unique religious art, music, and festivals. Throughout history, the Coptic community has faced challenges such as social discrimination and periods of persecution; however, they remain an integral part of Egypt’s religious and cultural fabric.
