@Guandao
Egypt has a lot of long hill ranges you could use, like Mokattam, Dakrur, the Theban Mountains or Gebel Silsileh. All of those were important places in ancient Egypt anyway.

Also, two underwater national parks seems a bit much. How about Wadi Natrun? Or the cataracts?

Just some corrections: Those are not volcanoes, they're the islands that have them. Most of the volcanoes don't have any special name, but those that do usually have names for the craters (for example, the volcanic crater of Kos is called Stefanos meaning Ring/Halo).

Also, the Rhodope mountains and Pindus being given to Macedon wouldn't really fit. Rhodope are in Thrace and Pindus in Epirus, so they would be most fitted for Greece. Technically Macedon ruled over them at some point due to Philip's conquest, but then it would be technically correct to give them almost every geographical feature Greece has as well.

And if we really want to stir up the pot, we could give Greece the Troodos mountain range which is in Cyprus, but that's kind of a stretch.
