Libya is misspelled in the type-ins, although it appears correctly on the map.

Nice :)

Just one thing, the 'Battle of Pelusium' 's hint on the map says 1525 BC but the hint below the map says 525 BC.

Good quiz, but due to the originals being Arabic or Egyptian I think more leeway is needed on the spellings. Ramses is way more common than Ramesses, I know Fayyum for Faiyum, and I feel like 'Saint Catherine' should work for Catherine as well since both are used.
