History of Egypt
Since the founding of a unified kingdom by King Narmer around
3150 BC, Egypt has been the stage upon which a long history of
invasion, outward expansion, vast buiding products and
scientific, philological and medical discoveries were made over
the course of nine major periods sub-divided into more than 20
dynasties, which shaped the people and the land in ways that
we still can barely understand.
As its culture evolved and flourished as outlined below, it
always remained distinctively Egyptian in its religion, culture,
arts, language and customs, despite the many wars, foreign
occupations and other forces that have shaped the people and
their environment over the past six thousand years.
