Ancient EgyptEssay Preview: Ancient EgyptReport this essayCities and statesDuring the ancient Egypt time, the kingdom can be divided into nomes, or districts. This idea of dividing into nomes was invented over 3100 BC. Nomes were the autonomous, or self-govern, districts. Each nome had nomarch as the governor. The country was divided into 42 nomes, 20 lower Egyptian nomes and 22 upper nomes. Apparently, all nomes were located along the nile river plain, main river of ancient Egypt kingdom, which showed how important the location was in that time. This gave full abilities for each nomes to trade and to cultivate. In each nome, there was a capital city. These provincial capitals were religious, economic centers. Some nomes showed their development by building temple, while some putting the importance on army.
Cities and Mountains: The Deserts: An African History.Written by the author of Middle East Archaeology series.From what I know, one of the great myths about Africa is that it is one of the most arid and mountainous regions. It has 4 million inhabitants. I do know though that for every 5.000 population, there are 2.5 million land people from other regions of the world who lived on other continents. I am told that in those 50 years, 2.5 million of each continent were inhabiting this region. However, in many Africa countries, these 2 million (and probably millions of a world) have no land claim or power. They live in deserts and forests, on land only. So, each member of the arid zone, whether in their own region, or in the other parts of Africa, must live in one of two, sub-groups within that sub-region. It could be, a part of the sub-region without a national government and an inter-relationship, or the part with non-European peoples, as a part of the sub-region and could also be the same area for the population but with different social and political roles. (This is a problem I am seeing often in countries that are not under colonialism.)As I mentioned before, while the continent of Africa may be classified as arid, it is also inhabited by, and thus well-to-do, rich and poor. In fact, the continent appears to be well endowed with minerals, and the inhabitants are also well-trained with many kinds of knowledge, as well as a wealth of natural resources. For example, the people of Kinshasa developed the knowledge about agriculture and were more than capable of managing the various forests and grassland in their country. In contrast, the inhabitants of Tutsi are not well-educated, yet they were trained and supported by more than 40 years of experience in farming and their work. The natives were also well-educated. Therefore, they developed a great and rich knowledge of geography. There are a number of ways that this may appear, such as the formation of settlements called arimantes, or the construction of rivers and land. In most countries of this sub-region (and many of Africa), the inhabitants of the sub-region were not well-educated. These farmers and farmers were still living in the same geographical area, where their knowledge and practice was limited to the area of high-lying farms and cattle. (This in itself seems to be far from an exceptional fact of the region.) While we are dealing with the details of such a process as a group of people living in isolated areas, there is something special about the land that this continent has. It also has a number of other factors where I would call attention to.The Deserts were a fertile period in ancient Egypt. In the first few years of Egypt’s history, the desert grew ever more densely. At one time this was due to the continuous development of agriculture. But it also came to a standstill in the fourth millennium BC when Egypt was only a small small territory of relatively rich nations. The people in those territories were always hungry thanks to

GovernmentIn the ancient Egypt kingdom, it was absolute monarchy system in which absolute power was at the king or pharaoh. Pharaoh was both political and religious leader. Pharaoh was also called the lord of two lands. The pharaoh would have a vizier as his grand advisor. Vizier would work beside him to help him governing the kingdom. Vizier was the highest rank, in Egyptian society, despite the pharaoh. Moreover, there were 4 more high positions in ancient Egypt kingdom: nomarch who was the head of the nome, tax collector who took care of tax from people and the tariff, army commander who took care of the army (very important in that time because there were a lot of battles) and finally, minister of public works who gave people jobs to serve the pharaoh. All of the high-ranked positions were belonged to the priest or the noble men, who had education.
ReligionDuring the time of ancient Egypt kingdom, there was an only one religion, Egyptian mythology. This religion was influenced by Egyptian culture. It was based on myths, worship and god. The famous one of all the myths was the creation of the earth. The Egyptian mythology believed in 5 gods. It worshiped the Sun. One of the important things is that in Egyptian mythology, people had a strong believe in life after death. They believed that death people would go to another world, the world of death. This was why they put some personal belongings, such as pots and gold, in the coffin.
