Many civilizations are powerful, but most are doomed to collapse. A good example of this is Egypt. Ancient Egypt was an ancient civilization of Northeastern Africa, concentrated along the lower reaches of the Nile River in what is now the modern country of Egypt. [1] Ancient Egypt, the glorified nation that rests along the Nile River and famed across the world for its strong army, powerful pharaohs, great pyramids, and the pride of its men, brought down to its knees by some foreign country. It may sound hard to believe, but it’s true. How the nation that was less to no other did, get ruined? Funny you should ask, because I was just about to answer.
Egypt, as many others advanced civilizations, had a very stable economy, large armies and strong ruler. Usually, these kings had absolute power- the main reason everything was so calm and orderly. This is a good characteristic for new and old kingdoms as it is vital for survival in this ancient world. Egypt got its start during the agricultural age, when early Egyptian farmers settled on the banks of the Nile to grow cotton, wheat, and barley [2].
