Queen Hatshepsut influenced Egypt in many great ways in which made the nation prosper. She married her half-brother, Tutmose II, and upon his death, his young son Tutmose III, ruled Egypt alongside Hatshepsut. Queen Hatshepsut “in a bold move… seized the throne for herself and gained the backing of
Hatshepsut was the greatest pharaoh. For example, in the video the narrator states, “the most expansive of the New Kingdom pharaohs was Hatshepsut, a woman who ruled Egypt for about 22 years. And who expanded Egypt not through military might, but through trade.” (Video: Ancient Egypt:Crash Course world history #4). Hatshepsut’s expansion of Egypt through trade increased the economy because people were trading resources for currency.
Learning about the Accomplishments of Ramses II There are many well-known Ancient Egyptian pharaohs, but one of the most popular is Ramses II. This isn't really surprising because he had accomplished a lot of things during his time. He also had an unusually long reign — he was in power for 67 years — which not only earned him recognition but also turned him into a god. (Egyptian pharaohs became gods if they stayed in power for 30 years.)
Hatshepsut born in 1508 B.C. is one of the most important ancient rulers of Egypt and holds the reputation of being the first female Pharaoh of the nation. “However, she tried keeping the kingdom's tradition alive by sporting the look of a man, therefore making the civilians believe that the kingdom is still being governed by a male.” (http://www.thefamouspeople.com/profiles/hatshepsut-6121.php) Having ruled for a little more than twenty years, she introduced a lot of significant changes during her administration which paved the way for great economic development. One such important move was the improvement of connectivity amongst different places, which led to an increase in trade. Hatshepsut is also known for having initiated the construction

Ancient Egypt was ruled by a person called a Pharaoh. These Pharaohs were like kings and emperors. The Pharaoh in ancient Egypt was the political and religious leader of the people. They were about 170 pharaohs and they ruled from 3150BCE to about 31BCE. Out of 170 pharaohs, they were a few of them who stand out because of their accomplishment.
To a great extent Hatshepsut was a successful ruler as she was able to ensure Egypt remained prosperous and stable during her reign while also consolidating her power through foreign policy, building programs and religious reform. Hatshepsut’s foreign policy was a major achievement that made her a successful ruler as her expedition to punt and her minor military campaigns were important to the stability and economy of Egypt. Hatshepsut was a greatly successful ruler because of her building programs and building policies which were important religiously and politically and were innovative for the time. Hatshepsut’s religious policy was also of great success as she was able to both consolidate her power and increase the influence of the priesthood
What’s the first thing you think of when you hear the word Egypt? Most likely, a gold-filled ancient civilization with a powerful pharaoh at its core. The pharaoh was the heart of Egypt’s political power. Egypt first started growing under the rule of Ahmose, then Amenhotep III at its apex, and lastly Akhenaten, Nefertiti, and Tutankhamen at its great fall. Each pharaoh brought different political stances and thus Egypt changed alongside each ruler.

“I was willing to pay whatever price our freedom costs”, says 22-year-old Egyptian protester, Ahmed Rafaat Amin. This seemed to be a very popular sentiment for many participants in the Arab revolution from December 2010 up to mid-2012, initially, or, as others would argue, as far as present day. The Arab world has been frustrated with the status quo, the misuse of power, and the lack of organization of their individual governments for a number of years now. The afflicted people finally lashed out when they were provoked by the unjustified treatment towards Tunisian worker, Mohamed Bouazizi by a police official that lead to his death on December 17th, 2010 (The Globalist, 2). The activist’s intentions were to achieve a better future for their
