That’s cool. Not only not mention the countless heritage sites in Ireland but also completely cut it out of the map with a text box. Lol

Why is a concrete statue of Jesus a world heritage site?
SteO153 t1_j4i0g34 wrote
Because the Egyptian government hasn't proposed them. Unesco sites are not selected by Unesco, but the different governments must propose them, and then the Unesco member states will vote for them. So, to have more Egyptian sites on the list, first the Egyptian government must select (tentative list) and propose them for selection (nomination).
