Egypt is a country which consists of various natural resources which they have a trade in local and international market management. The trading goods are woods, metals, precious stones needed for amulets jewellery, ornamentation, oil, sugar and tobacco. According to the Egyptians believes that the king is owner of all the land of everything who produced in the country because they have only power to ordained and sanctified to the Gods for creating everything in the world and their work is being as a mediator between the Gods and people. Therefore the everything on the farm along the Nile which has been produced they are considered as the property of the king and those are directly send to the capital for distribution among the people and the other parts used for the trade. Agriculture is one of the important parts of Egyptian life where they manufacture varieties of products like farming wh ere they include the grains and the cattle who are used for leather and teller, pork from pigs, linen from flax, bread, beer and many more things.

The revolution in the information technology helps Egypt to make a highest rank according to the GDP per capita from Middle East and North Africa. In the human development the railway connectivity is make the huge impact for the Egyptians along with the technology capacity which helps them to increase the economy development. In trade they had connect with the developed countries for activity and import export system between them[14]. In the Egyptian history which affected the whole economic system in trade. Therefore the industrial revolution has been found through the revolution in the railway connectivity along with the information Technologies. Sometimes Egypt also faced with the situation where the expansion in communication affected the potential economic growth which failed to achieve the revolution on the human development but interference of the parallel investment in human resource, educational system and eradicate electricity helps them to overcome the whole situation. Due to the revolution the businesses which are based on the opportunities for small and medium enterprises has make their impacts on the native bourgeoisie and middle class society[15]. On the part of economy of Egypt it was one of the highly planned economy has focused where they make a great investment on the International Monetary Fund arrangement that help them to perform and improve the economic condition. In the years from 2004 to 2009 the economic growth of Egypt has completely failed and there equitable share of the wealth and benefits of the growth and it affect the whole population and unemployment and underemployment. The Global Business trade and other economic resources have been completely fall down and not able to gaining the previous economic standards.

The agriculture is another part of the trade which helps on the economic growth through Egypt from ancient time and now days the agriculture is also largely sprayed in the whole country where they make the business, especially on the cotton and sugar p roduction. The other trades like construction, non financial services, retail trades and wholesale are also helps to promote the annual growth economic rate of the country[16]. The Egypt is mainly consist on the exporting their products like non petroleum products, natural gas, readymade clothes, medical, cotton, Textiles, petrochemical products, rice, citrus fruits, dried onion, cement, ceramics and steel[17]. They also import various products like Pharmaceuticals and the non petroleum products like maize, cars and car spare parts. These all exports and imports parts are part of the industrial revolution in recent years. It makes the GDP per capita more than other countries in the world. The International Organization for Migration has research on the external trade and remittance and they have found that almost 2.7 million Egyptians make their contribution actively for the development of the country which helps them to remittance the inflows social capital and circulation of human investment in the export and import Trade System. The Egyptian Central Bank, the United States, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates also help this country in the devel opment on their economical Trade System[18]. The warm weather and plenty full water from Nile river has helped Egypt to produce several crops in every year and by the export and import system of the agriculture, land products of the natural resources also help them to gain the economy productivity after the 5 years of the revolution. Most of the crops like cotton, rice, wheat, corn, sugar, beets, sugarcane, beans, onions and tobacco are grown on the river side of Nile.

For being a desert land Egyptian people has successfully developed some desert area for helpful in the agriculture which has become the Egypt one of the important agriculture industry in the export and import sector[19]. Egypt is also known as the gift of Nile because the Nile is one of the largest river in the world which is a great resource of water and carried fertile soil which has been produced by the Nile valley and delta. Though Egypt is a desert land but the Nile River help them to agricultural and cultivated land which has great impact in trading. The groundwater has found due to the presence of Mediterranean Sea where it supplies the water towards the coastal sent from north to south[20]. Mineral and energy resources Egypt is consisting of various mineral and energy sources like natural gas, Petroleum, iron ore, phosphates and gold. The Nile Delta is the main resources of the natural gas along with the Mediterranean shore. Through the natural gas resources the Egypt has gained there one of the part of economical growth after the revolution[21]. The mineral and energy sources products provides almost 7% of GDP in every year of the country by the export and import those natural resources to the other countries and also increase the economical development through the whole country. They mainly export the energy resources to the developed countries like Saudi Arabia Iraq and United States. Egypt has great resources of natural gas and Gold mining which are one of the fast growing industries towards the Egyptian country and it helps the Egyptian government to make several treaties and contract with the other countries for exporting the trade business[22]. Conclusion Egypt has several economic sectors like agricultures, industrial, construction and contracting service sectors, Information and Communication and Technology sectors. In the agriculture sector the Egyptian people has a great impact on the trading business of farm business which has a great effect on the economic standards of label in the country[23].

Many more critics have showed the perspective of the revolution in Egypt as a political revolution. They indicated that in the area of trade the World Bank has helps to crack the problems and sometimes they failed to solve the issues which also make the failure in the economic growth and the political sta bility in Egypt. However economic freedom is part of the political freedom. Therefore through the revolution it helps to leads to create a democratic middle class oriented Trade System where people believe on the appearance and contribution of the Government of the country along with the economic benefits for them[24].
