Ancient Egypt
Ancient Egypt was a civilization in northeastern Africa, centered along the Nile River, known for its remarkable achievements in writing, architecture, and art. It emerged around 3100 BCE and lasted until Alexander the Great's conquest in 332 BCE. The society was characterized by a complex polytheistic religion, monumental structures like the pyramids, and a hieroglyphic writing system. The pharaohs, considered divine rulers, played a central role in governance and religion. Ancient Egypt's contributions to mathematics, medicine, and engineering significantly influenced subsequent cultures.
