A nation-less state is a state whose borders are arbitrary and with no historical context and with no real common bond among the people. Lebanon does not fit this paradigm. While there are numerous different groups of people in Lebanon, there is the historic Sanjak of Mount Lebanon, which set the prevailing, dominant Christian culture of the area. When the French expanded the Sanjak of Mount Lebanon to surrounding areas to the north, east, and south, a number of Sunni Muslim, Shiite Muslim, Alawite, and Druze groups were added to the state, making it more heterogeneous and leading to internal conflict. However, those conflicts have ended up creating a unified national identity, especially in resistance to the recent (1986-2006) Syrian Occupation of the country, and the creation of a Confessionalist Republican Structure.
By contrast, Iraq, which has no unity between its religiously and ethnically diverse groups is a nationaless state.
Who is better Lebanese or Egyptians?
The question is nonsense.
There are a hundred reasons.
Here are only two:
-- "Better" depends on what you're looking for. It means different things
to different people at different times and in different places.
-- One of the choices is a democratic, sovereign nation, while the other
is not. So there's no possible way to even begin such a comparison.
Both are groups of human beings with the desire to live their culture,
practice their religion, provide for their families, and raise their children,
in security, dignity and health, without malice toward others. It's too bad
that both groups don't act like it.

How far is it from Lebanon to Israel?
The two countries share a border, along Israel's north / Lebanon's south.
Along that line, the distance between them is zero.
In terms of getting from Lebanon to Israel, you would need to travel through Syria and Jordan before crossing the Israeli-Jordanian border. This trip is roughly 60 miles or 100 kilometers. There are two things worth noting about this travel.
- This can only be done from Lebanon to Israel (as opposed to from Israel to Lebanon) since Israel will accept someone with a Lebanese and Syrian passport stamp (unhappily, but they will) whereas Lebanon and Syria explicitly ban Israeli-stamped passports.
- Syria is currently in a state of civil war, so it is not a smart idea to drive through Syria.
What is topography in Lebanon?
This is more of a little topography with reasoning of how it helps Lebanon and how it's used:
Lebanon has many plains, where farmers plant. Heavy downpour in Mount Lebanon of winter rains has formed many deep clefts and valleys in the soft rock. The terrain has profoundly affected the country's history. East of the Mount Lebanon Range is the Bekaa Valley, an extremely fertile flatland where farmers have learned that the soil is fertile and that the plants could grow large with flat land and lots of space to grow in. Lebanon contains few rivers, and its harbors are mostly shallow and small. Abundant springs, found to a height of 1,500 m (4,900 ft) on the western slopes of the Lebanon Mountains, provide water for cultivation up to this height. Such rivers as Nahr Abou Ali, Nahr Ibrahim, Nahr el Kelb, Nahr Beirut, Nahr ed Dam our, etc. flow into Mediterranean, forming deep ravines. The coastal plain along the Mediterranean is narrow, and is found only around such cities as Tripoli, Beirut, Saida, Tyre, etc.

How do you say hello in Lebanese?
Well in written Arabic it's (ila al lika')which means "until another encounter" like au revoir in French. But we never use it in spoken Arabic (Lebanese). Some religious people say "assalam aleykom" which translates "may peace be upon you". As for the majority of Lebanese, they say informally "yalla bye" which means "ok bye". There's as well "alla ma ak" if they are saying good bye to someone who is leaving, which translates to "may god be with you". You don't have to be religious to say that, it's a very common way of saying bye too. hope it helped.
