via Wikipedia infobox
Monufia (Arabic: محافظة المنوفية Muḥāfaẓah Al Monofeya IPA: [elmenoˈfejjæ, -monoˈ-]) is one of the governorates of Egypt. Monufia’s name was derived from the ancient Egyptian word “Nafr”, which means “The Good Land”. It is located in the northern part of the country in the Nile Delta, to the south of Gharbia Governorate and to the north of Cairo. The governorate of Monufia is known for being the place of origin of four Egyptian presidents: Anwar Sadat, Hosni Mubarak, Adly Mansour, and Abdel Fattah el-Sisi. The governorate is named after Menouf, an ancient city which was the capital of the governorate until 1826. The current governor (as of 2018) is Said Mohammed Mohammed Abbas.
Monufia Governorate is home to several prominent educational institutions. Chief among them is Menoufia University, established by presidential decree in 1976. Another major institution is Sadat City University, which was founded by a 2013 presidential decree after having previously functioned as a branch of Menoufia University. The region also hosts Al-Riyada University for Science and Technology in Sadat City, Delta Technological University in Quesna, and Menoufia National University in Tukh Tanbisha. Additionally, there are faculties affiliated with Al-Azhar University in Shibin El Kom and Sadat City.
