Square Shaped Home Land

The more I learn about the arbitrary creation of national borders, the more disappointed I am about the shape that the British colonialists decided to give Egypt. I have one question to the pasty British colonel who drew up the Egyptian borders sitting at his desk in London: Why did you give us a right angle? right there, in the South West border of our great nation, at the intersection of Egypt, Sudan and Libya is a perfect 90 degree corner. Egypt is a country with a bottom left hand corner thanks to you. You can never get any respect with that.

On the contrary, I love our corner! We're the only nation with a logical shape; ironic seeing how illogical it actually is...
