1 answer

The ancient civilization of Egypt is still referred to as Egypt. However, in modern terms, it is officially known as the Arab Republic of Egypt.

The Indus Valley Civilization, which thrived around the Indus River in present-day Pakistan and northwest India, is now associated with modern Pakistan, particularly the regions of Sindh and Punjab. The major archaeological sites of the Indus Valley Civilization, such as Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa, are located in present-day Pakistan.

So to summarize:

  • Ancient Egypt: Still called Egypt (Arab Republic of Egypt)
  • Indus Valley Civilization: Associated with modern Pakistan (particularly Sindh and Punjab).
