The engineering skills of Ancient Egypt are fascinating, how they were able to build such fantastic structures. I'm planning to visit Egypt in a few years, and I'm looking forward to seeing the pyramids, Sphinx and the structures of the Valley of the Kings.
I honestly have been always fascinated by many aspects of Ancient Egypt culture: hieroglyphs, pyramids, temples, rituals, statues… but their way of building the colossal pyramids with rigorous, mathematic and astronomical precision is really stunning.
Sure. There is sure a reason if great men of history all stopped in Egypt and were stunned: Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Napoleon… all them had a serious fascination for Egypt.
Probably some cheap ass and narrow minded people. I’m from a country full of history and monuments and there’s here people that would destroy all our culture to build supermarkets and highways. So I wouldn’t be surprised to find someone indifferent to that beauty.
The sheer amount of manpower, wealth and resources poured into the pharaohs tombs, monuments and places of worship. Before the Bronze age collapse Egypt was immeasurably wealthy.
Ancient Egypt was created by White people, and was destroyed by race mixing with Canaanites, and the Canaanites are the Synagogue of Satan according to the bible.
For me it's the Nile and the culture, I don't agree with all the magic they practiced but it is a beautiful country and I wouldn't mind taking a trip there

I agree, as much else is gone. French architect Jean-Pierre Houdin discovered pretty much how the pyramids where built. It took us so long to figure this out.
Women in ancient Egypt were ahead of their time. They could not only rule the country, but also had many of the same basic human rights as men.
One of the first women to hold the rank of pharaoh was Hatshepsut, who began her rule in about 1,500 B. C. E. Hatshepsut took care of her people and built temples to the gods as well as other public buildings. Egyptian custom dictated that a pharaoh, who was considered a god, could not marry a mortal. As a result, pharaohs chose spouses from within the royal family. Her husband, Thutmose, was her half brother.
Nefertiti was another Egyptian ruler. She married Amenhotep IV, who preached and supported monotheism, or the belief in only one god.
Here some more : Egyptian women could have their own businesses, own and sell property, and serve as witnesses in court cases. Unlike most women in the Middle East, they were even permitted to be in the company of men. They could escape bad marriages by divorcing and remarrying. And women were entitled to one third of the property their husbands owned. The political and economic rights Egyptian women enjoyed made them the most liberated females of their time.
