There were many laws in Egypt as there were many punishments for breaking a law. One of the punishments was one hundred strokes of a cane and if the crime was worse five bleeding cuts were added. Other punishments included branding, exile, mutilation, drowning, beheading, and burning alive.

the power of such a ruler differ from that of a Constitutional monarch like queen Elizabeth of great Britain for example a ruler from Egypt called a Pharaoh rules the country and give them punishments. but the queen in Egypt didn't do anything.
