Best Answer

ancient Egypt and its remnants (the pyramids, the Sphinx, and the tombs in the Valley of the Kings) are more than 5000 years old. The First Dynasty dates from the merging of the Two Kingdoms, Lower and Upper Egypt, by a pharaoh called Menes sometime around 3100 BC (dates vary). Many artifacts have been recovered from the relatively advanced civilization that flourished along the Nile between 3000 and 1000 BC.

The Egyptian civilization has been recently discovered to have began in 5000 bc, and although many people believed it got conquered by Greeks and soon Romans, it is now known due to a recent discovery of ancient hieroglyphic texts found deep within the valley of kings. These texts told the tale of Pharaoh Nefrotat and how he made a truce with these two nations as they were far more technologically advanced than them, so they said if you let our empire grow then well trade you technology.
