King Khufu
I think King Khufu should deserve a spot in the hall of fame and in this paper I’m going to tell you why. King Khufu was the king of Egypt in the 4th dynasty. His rule began in 2589 B.C. His rule ended in 2566 B.C. He was the son of King Snerferu and Queen Hetepheres. His real name was Khnum-Khufwy. One reason why King Khufu should deserve and spot in the hall of fame is because his pyramid is one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world. This pyramid is known as the Pyramid of Khufu or Pyramid of Cheops. Some people think that the Pyramid of Khufu was built by slaves. But it was not it was actually built by one hundred thousand people that were unemployed because of the Nile River, and he paid them with good food and money. A second reason why I think King Khufu should be in the hall of fame is that he had a very structured kingdom. He was pretty strict which made people obey him. This also made him one of the most famous and misunderstood kings. Being organized as a good king should be made him wealthy. Which resulted into Egypt being wealthy. The third reason that King Khufu should be in the hall of fame is that Khufu appointed himself as Re during his lifetime. So since he was king people believed that he was Re. This is what made him a respectable king. I personally think that King Khufu deserves a spot in the hall of fame. With all the things you now know about him I hope you do too!

    Shi Huangdi was a powerful Chinese ruler during the Qin dynasty. I feel that he was a bad ruler for a few reasons.
