my proposal:
[...]
Levantine: Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Jordan
Egyptian: Egypt
N. African: Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Hassaniya
N. Egyptian forms a bridge between Egyptian and N. African.
Presumably Libya (at least in the north) falls in with N. Egyptian, rather
than with your other N.African or African?
African: Sudan, Chad, creoles & pidgins
Syro-Mespotamian forms a bridge between levantine and Iraqi, Egyptian
and Levantine are quite close.
