Muslims Attacking Christians In Egypt

The Copts are the native Egyptian Christians, a major ethnoreligious group in Egypt...Christianity was the majority religion in Roman Egypt during the 4th to 6th centuries and until the Muslim conquest, and remains the faith of a significant minority population.

Their Coptic language is the direct descendant of the Demotic Egyptian spoken in the Roman era, but it has been near-extinct and mostly limited to liturgical use since the 18th century.

The Copts in Egypt constitute the largest Christian community in the Middle East, as well as the largest religious minority in the region, accounting for an estimated 10% of Egyptian population.

Most Copts adhere to the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria.
The remaining (around 800,000) are divided between the Coptic Catholic and various Coptic Protestant churches.

As a religious minority, the Copts are subject to significant discrimination in modern Egypt, and the target of attacks by militant Islamic extremist groups.
