[@fedoramaster6035]

A few things. First off, Egypt under the Ptolemies was totally an independent country, just under a foreign dynasty, who were actually very fond of Egyptian culture and did their best to integrate. Secondly, the Romans never tried to oppress the Egyptians at all. The Copts (ethnic Egyptians) weren’t citizens, and were seen as lesser by Latin born Romans, but so was everyone else in the empire who wasn’t Italian. The Romans were also big fans of Egyptian culture as well. They had a saying that roughly translated to “there’s always something new from Africa” because of all the fascinating things that came from Egypt, and isis became one of the most widely worshipped deities in the empire, even being worshipped by the British Celtic revival cultures after the fall of the empire. Egypt was never some ping pong ball from empire to empire. It was the crown jewel of anyone who controlled it, and everyone who ever owned it was very proud of the legacy they inherited (even the British). Egyptian culture never was killed. It just kind of faded into history because it literally existed for like 4000 years.

Peasant labor for the pyramids and other monuments might not be as coercive as you believe. The Egyptian farmers had significant periods of time where they couldn't farm, especially during the flooding and dry seasons of the Nile. There are records of said farmers signing up for the labor in exchange for payments of beer and grain. Older laborers were even given tombs near the pyramids or mustabas, which was a definite boon if you were worried about what your life would be like in the Egyptian afterlife.

An interesting presentation, but a small correction: tradition holds -- and is probably correct -- that Christianity reached Egypt within a few years of the crucifixion, probably even before it reached Rome. Coptic Christians credit St Mark with first bringing the gospel to their country, which would have required less travel than going to Rome. There's also an argument that Christianity first reached Europe through Paul, though, within a few years of that outreach in Philippi (Macedonia) there were churches in various Italian cities including Rome. So it's not unlikely that the first Egyptian churches predate any Italian churches.

One of the defining geographical features of Egypt during their dynastic periods was being at a river oasis that was easy to defend - the desert to the east and the west, the sea to the north and a mountainous area to the south. Centuries earlier, Egypt's place was not yet so much a special place, as Sahara was a green savanna, but with the progress of civilization, people became more and more mobile, weapons became more and more efficient (and deadlier), so that isolation was no more that easy as it was until the end of the bronze age. Today, Egypt is not so much a splendid beacon of civilization surrounded by nomadic tribes, it is more like a primus inter pares in northern Africa.

you got a couple of things wrong, when the Assyrians took over Egypt, they did get into the culture. Although they did indeed sack many temples, and there was much resentment to the Assyrians there, after a while the two people had a close bond and when the Babylonian's began the coup war, the Egyptians sent over many soldiers to help the Assyrians.

For instance, he pronounces the name "Thutmose", exactly as it is spelt (Thoot-mohs), as if it were a modern English Word. However, we know that there was No "Th" Sound in Ancient Egyptian. Therefore, an accurate pronunciation would have been "Toot-moh-sah". That is, of course, if we could trust that the original translations were correct. Digging deeper, we find that the Name "Thutmose" actually means "Born of Thoth". But, since the Name "Thoth" is actually a poor translation, thereby making this updated pronunciation incorrect, as well, a more accurate Translation of the Name "Thoth" would actually be "Djehuti". With that being said, the Correct Translation of the Name "Thutmose" would be "Djehuti-Mesu" ("Born of Djehuti").

Edward Gibbon once proposed about Rome that the question shouldn't be why Rome fell but rather while Rome lasted so long? I also get the same vibe about Egypt and Greece as well. Both Civilizations were very long lasting and impactful. It seems to be only destiny that all Civilizations fall. I think Egypt is the longest continuous Civilization in Human History since it lasted from ~ 4,000 B.C. to about 700 B.C. as a unique Civilization under the Pharaohs. The only Civilization that might have an argument for greater longevity would be China although China is dubious as best since it wasn't a single running Civilization as China had multiple different civilizations throughout its history so you really cannot argue it was one Civilization that ran from conception to modern era. Kind of like you cannot give Egypt credit for later civilizations called Egypt such as the Ptolemies, Fatamid and Mameluke Egypt, or Modern Egypt since they are very different Civilizations from Ancient Egypt.

Something odd about Egypt, is if you look at it's capability-especially megalithic building, the largest and best structures occurred early in Egypts history, at the beginning. Then as time went by, Egypt did not move forward technologically, but backwards. Apparently much of the great knowledge of the early Egyptians was lost to later generations. The early Egyptians not putting in place a process where this transfer of knowledge would occur for generations after them. This is exactly opposite of the other great cultures seen throughout history, and is probably also another reason contributing to Egypy's decline in its later years. Certainly the destruction of Alexandria and its great library by the Romans didn't help either. Yeah, Rome could have been the ones to obtain this knowledge and instead burned it.

[@kanekiken5848]

@@nnsloni6226 Egyptians never came from Nubia, Nubia/kush kingdom already had their own established kingdom before they got anywhere near Egypt, (I’m upper Egyptian btw my great grandfather was of black Nubian descent, he married someone from lower Egypt of Mediterranean Egyptian descent, I speak English fluently cuz I’m studying abroad atm) if you ever go and talk to Nubians today in Aswan, they never refer to themselves as Egyptians, in fact they hate it when anyone does that, they say they’re NUBIANS. North Sudanese people always refer to the great pharoah piye of the 25th dynasty as the kushite/Nubian pharoah. It is absolutely true that him and his dynasty gave so much to the Egyptian civilization but westerners disregarding the fact that the kush kingdom minus the Egyptians, were one of the strongest East African empires in the world and were the ones who fended off caesar Augustus and the romans from taking over Africa (they had already taken over egypt), under the command of the great Nubian queen Amanirenas is frustrating. She’s the one who obliterated the romans multiple times, her and her KUSHITE soldiers. You really don’t understand how frustrating it is that this is a genuine misconception spread among westerners that Nubians and egyptians are the same and the fact that I’ve been explaining this to so many westerners shows how big of a misconception this actually is.
