    Mostly it’s that Egypt was culturally assimilated by Arabic-speaking invaders in the 7th century AD. The people, genetically speaking, are largely the same, as the Arabic-speaking invaders, while insistent on the supremacy of the Arabic language, generally intermarried freely with the Egyptians, and were not numerous enough to ‘push out’ (nor particularly interested in such a thing) the natives.
