The Egyptian people respected their kings so much and venerated them to the point that they considered them like gods and worshiped them. These kings accomplished many great achievements, such as building luxurious temples that still exist to this day.

In the past, Egypt was ruled by a group of the strongest and greatest kings and pharaohs in history, whose achievements still amaze the world until now, such as King Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, who built the pyramids, which are still among the Seven Wonders of the World. You will be impressed by the treasures left by King Tutankhamun, even though he was one of the youngest kings, who ruled Egypt.

A long time ago, there was a king who made two different places come together and become one country called ancient Egypt. This is where the history of ancient Egypt starts, and historians divide it into different periods. Sometimes, they are not sure about the exact dates of things that happened in the past.
 

Sobekneferu was a special lady who became a ruler in Egypt a long time ago. She was the first woman to use a special title that showed she was a queen. She was also the first ruler to be connected to a god called Sobek, who is like a crocodile. Sobek's name was part of her name.
 

The ancient Egyptian kings and pharaohs were a group of the most powerful rulers in the world throughout history because they made countless great achievements that history still remembers until now. They were able to defeat the most powerful armies in the world, and these victories have been chronicled on the walls of Egyptian temples until our present era.

Thutmose III was a strong and brave fighter who made Egypt very powerful by winning battles and taking over other lands. He conquered Syria and defeated the Mitannians by crossing a big river called the Euphrates. He also went down the Nile River and took control of a place called Napata in Sudan.

The ancient Egyptians were always proud of their kings and queens because they performed many great deeds, such as defending their country against enemies and building many impressive temples. They were interested in developing the economic and military aspects of the country.

During the reign of the Pharaohs, Egypt witnessed the construction of several significant structures, including temples, pyramids, and other architectural marvels, each with its own unique stories and symbols. Here are some of the most notable:

• The Great Pyramid of Giza (Pyramid of Khufu)
•  The Sphinx.

Cleopatra was a very important queen in Egypt a long time ago, and she is known as one of the most famous female rulers ever.
 

Some notable figures in Egypt's history include the great pharaoh Khufu, Queen Cleopatra, and Pharaoh Ramesses II.

The first ruler of ancient Egypt was Narmer, also known as Menes, who lived around 3100 BC. He is credited with unifying Upper and Lower Egypt by defeating the king of Lower Egypt and wearing the double crown of both regions. He also founded the first dynasty and established the capital at Memphis.

Cleopatra, last pharaoh of Egypt, may be the most famous female ruler in all of history. But her Roman enemies made her notorious for all the wrong reasons: her political ambitions, her sumptuous lifestyle, and above all her love affairs with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony.

Egypt's ancient history is characterized by numerous pharaohs, queens, and rulers who significantly shaped the civilization. Key figures include Menes (Narmer), Djoser, Sneferu, Khufu, Hatshepsut, Akhenaten, Tutankhamun, Ramses II, Queen Cleopatra VII, Nefertiti, and Alexander the Great. Pharaohs like Menes, Djoser, Sneferu, Khufu, Hatshepsut, Akhenaten, Tutankhamun, Ramses II, Queen Cleopatra VII, and Nefertiti were known for their political prowess and alliances. The Ptolemaic dynasty, founded by Ptolemy I Soter, ruled Egypt until Cleopatra's reign. The era of pyramid construction was ushered in by pharaohs like Menes, Djoser, Sneferu, Khufu, Hatshepsut, Akhenaten, Tutankhamun, Ramses II, and Nefertiti.

King Tutankhamun, also known as the "Boy King," is one of the most famous pharaohs of ancient Egypt. His tomb was discovered relatively intact in the Valley of the Kings, providing remarkable insights into ancient Egyptian burial practices and art. The discovery of his tomb in 1922 by Howard Carter sparked worldwide fascination with ancient Egypt.

Egypt, the country of successive civilizations, has the longest history in more than seven thousand years BC to today, Through this long history, Egypt has a great cultural depth and historical heritage, such as the Pyramids of Giza, Karnak, the Temple of Hatshepsut, the Temple of Luxor, the Temple of Horus, the Temple of O Semple, the statue of Abu al-Hol, the Valley of Kings and queens.

Cleopatra, the last pharaoh of Egypt, is known for her relationships with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. Her reign marks the end of the Ptolemaic dynasty and the beginning of Roman Egypt.
 

In ancient Egypt, queens had important positions and sway. They were regarded as the pharaoh's chief wife and frequently went by the moniker "Great Royal Wife". Nefertiti, the wife of Akhenaten, and Nefertari, the wife of Ramses II, are two notable queens.

Typically, the son or male heir of the preceding pharaoh was the head of state in ancient Egypt. There were, however, certain instances in which queens or other family members took on the responsibility. Depending on the conditions and the particular dynasty, several selection procedures were used.

The pharaoh served as a divine ruler and guardian of the maat, or divinely ordained order. He administered justice to his subjects, controlled the usage of a sizable piece of Egypt's territory, and was in charge of the material and spiritual well-being of his people. He ruled by royal order, and his will was final.
