the ancient egyptian civilization lasted
for over 3 000 years and became one of
the most powerful and iconic
civilizations in history
at its height ancient egypt's empire
stretched as far north as modern-day
syria and as far south as today's sudan
but long before it was an empire ancient
egypt was a series of small independent
city-states that bloomed along north
africa's nile river
the city-states were divided into two
regions and named according to the flow
of the nile
upper egypt in the south which was
upstream and lower egypt in the north
which was downstream
by about 3100 bc the two halves united
thereby creating one egyptian state that
lasted for millennia
the reign of the civilization can be
divided into three major periods of
prosperity called the old middle and new
kingdoms and two periods of instability
in between called the first and second
intermediate periods
guiding the egyptian people was a
succession of about 300 rulers often
referred to as pharaohs
