History of ancient Egypt.

 Egypt's history consists of approximately 30 dynasties, which are largely divided into the Old Kingdom, the Middle Kingdom, and the New Kingdom. The first king in Egyptian history is a legendary pharaoh called Menes. It is said that he unified Egypt and built the capital Memphis.

  Egypt was geographically surrounded by deserts and seas, so it was safe from outside intrusion. So, it has been able to develop while maintaining its own culture for almost 2,000 years. Ancient Egypt existed as a unified state for about 2,500 years from the beginning of the first dynasty around 3,000 B.C. until it was conquered by Persia in the 6th century B.C.

  The 4th Dynasty, the early days of the ancient kingdom, was the time when many pyramids were built, including the evacuation of Giza. During the Middle Kingdom, Hicksus invaded Egypt. The Hicksos ruled Egypt and delivered a new culture of Western Asia that had been isolated. However, the Egyptians drove out the Hicksus and established a powerful new kingdom.

  In the early days of the New Kingdom, they actively conquered in Southwest Asia. In particular, Tutmos III conquered Syria and Palestine and advanced to the upper reaches of the Euphrates River.

  Many of the pharaohs we know well are people from the New Kingdom. Amenhotep IV called himself Aknaton, denying the former Amon Rashin and trying to reform religion by making Aton, the new sun god, the only god. However, Aknaton's reform failed. When the young Tutankhamen succeeded him, the priests of Amon Rashin, who had power, returned Egypt's religion to its original state. Ramses II, who later appeared, ruled Egypt for the longest time among pharaohs and led the era of prosperity.

  After that, Asia, Babylonia, and Persia invaded Egypt. In 525 B.C., King of Persian Cambodia II ruled Egypt, and Egypt became a subordinate state of Persianism. In the 4th century BC, Alexander the Great conquered Egypt, and after his death, the Ptolemy dynasty ruled Egypt. The last king of this dynasty is Cleopatra. Cleopatra was the last to end the history of ancient Egypt, and Egypt was ruled by Rome.
