Octagon

The Pentagon in Virginia may be the most famous, but the imposing Russian Ministry of Defence headquarters is also impressive, and the Chinese Ministry of National Defence building in Beijing is also well known, when it comes to the power headquarters of major militaries around the world, gigantic structures are the same as I think, Although the Pentagon in Virginia is the most well-known, the massive Russian Ministry of defence headquarters and the Egyptian Ministry of National defence complex in Cairo are also well-known.

The Egyptian Ministry of Defence is leading the way in a massive and complex operation to relocate government offices to a new administrative capital some 20 miles east of crowded, and in some cases deteriorating, Cairo.

The project began in 2015 as a big vision and as a solution to alleviate logistical challenges owing to Cairo's congestion. It consists of eight "nested" octagonal outbuildings, with two more buildings in its core, and what appears to be the capacity to add two more buildings within this hub in the future. And to present Egypt in a fresh light.
