New Administrative Capital
The New Administrative Capital (NAC)[1][2] (Arabic: العاصمة الإدارية الجديدة) is a large-scale project in Egypt that has been under construction since 2015.
It was announced by then-Egyptian housing minister Moustafa Madbouly at the Egypt Economic Development Conference on 13 March 2015.[3] The city will reportedly be named Wedian, the Egyptian Arabic plural for "Wadi".[4][5][6]
