Meroe is located in Egypt.
Because it was the CENTER of trading in Ancient Egypt times.
Kerma was wealthy when Egypt was weak, they were able to conquer and expand into southern Egypt. How are the histories of Napata and Meroe tied to Egypt? Napata conquered Egypt at a weak point. Napatan rule restored and preserved many old Egyptian ways.
south to meroe
First of all, Meroë is in Sudan, not Egypt, and was historically part of Nubia or the Kingdom of Kush, not Ancient Egypt (save when Ancient Egypt was conquered by Kush).Second, Meroë was a city in ancient times and often the capital of Kush, but today it is simply an archaeological site. There is no major settlement near Meroë.

The importance is.......
The Assyrians conquered Meroe.
Napata was the earlier capital of the kingdom of Kush, located in modern-day Sudan, while Meroe succeeded it as the capital. Napata was closer to Egypt, more influenced by Egyptian culture, and focused on trade, while Meroe was more independent, had a stronger iron industry, and produced distinctively fine pottery.
The ancient city of Meroe is where the Meroitic language was developed. The culture of Meroe originated in Kush.
she never lost Egypt
The Assyrians never conquered Kush though they claimed they did. They conquered Egypt which was being ruled by Kush at the time but they did not conquer Kush and there is no evidence that reached as far south as Meroe The Romans only claimed to have got as far as Napata when they fought with Kush centuries later The only civilization that might have reached as far south into Kush as Meroe was the Persians
