Cairo (Arabic: القاهرة‎ ​ translit: al-Qāhirah). It comes from the arabic word "قاهرة" means "Triumphant". While al-Qāhirah is the official name of the city, in local speech it is typically called simply by the name of the country, Miṣr (Arabic, مصر) pronounced Maṣr in the local dialect.

Cairo is home to 15.2 million people and is the hub of the Egyptian transport system. Cairo is known to be very busy. Central Cairo has a a population density of 35,000 people per square kilometer. Compare that to just over 2000 people for central Auckland and you'll realise how populated it really is!
