    Akhenaten, the so called "Heretic Pharaoh  was a Ruler of Egypt during the period known as the 18th Dynasty. He ascended to the throne as Amenhotep IV, succeeding his father Amenhotep III.

This is because it housed one of the most advanced cultures for many centuries. The Egyptians were responsible for some of the earliest examples of writing with hieroglyphs. Egypt is also home to the Sphinx, which is one of the great feats of architectural engineering in history.
