- Abukir — A coastal town and strategic bay in Egypt, situated on the Mediterranean Sea, famous in world history as the theater of crucial battles during Napoleon Bonaparte's French Campaign in Egypt. Its name is inextricably linked to the 1879 'Battle of Abukir' (Battle of the Nile), in which British Admiral Horatio Nelson destroyed the French fleet, stranding Napoleon in the East and radically altering the balance of power in the Napoleonic Wars.
