Question

Essay on the civilization of Egypt.

Answer 1

Starting around 5500 BCE two major kingdoms developed along the Nile. Historians call them Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt. Around 3200 BCE, Egypt was brought together under one ruler—King Narmer (sometimes called Menes). This is recognized as the beginning of the Egyptian civilization. We know so much about the Egyptians because there are so many written resources and because their culture lasted so long with few interruptions. Mesopotamian culture was constantly changing and disrupted by war. Another reason we know so much about Egypt is because they made their architecture out of stone, which has lasted for the most part.
