Hyksos
The Hyksos ruled Egypt for approximately 100 years, from around 1650 to 1550 BCE. They established the 15th Dynasty and controlled significant parts of the Nile Delta. Their rule marked a period of foreign dominance, which ended when native Egyptian rulers began to push them out, leading to the eventual reunification of Egypt under the New Kingdom.

Ahmose I is generally considered to be the Pharaoh who conquered and expelled the Hyksos from Egypt in the beginning of the 18th dynasty, though in his father's and grandfather's reign during the 17th dynasty the ancient Egyptians began rebelling against Hyksos rule in Thebes in Lower Egypt.
When centralized rule in Egypt was weakened, the Hyksos attacked and ruled for over 160 years.

The chief god of the Hyksos was Set, also known as Seth. Set was associated with chaos, storms, and the desert, and he was often depicted as a protector of the Hyksos during their rule in Egypt. The Hyksos adopted and adapted Egyptian religious practices, but Set remained a central figure in their worship, reflecting their foreign origins and cultural influences.
The Hyksos rule of Egypt ended because Ahmose seized power and conquerred Egypt and threw out the Hyksos. Actually, their rule ended because they lost the ability to run and empire. They were simply taking tribute from Egypt instead of ruling Egypt. When the main purpose of the conquering power is taking tribute from the conquered, a revolution will occur as did in Egypt and America in 1776.

The raiders who ended the Middle Kingdom of Egypt around the 17th century BCE were primarily the Hyksos, a group of mixed Semitic peoples. They are believed to have originated from the Levant region, which includes parts of modern-day Israel, Palestine, and Syria. The Hyksos utilized advanced military technology, such as horse-drawn chariots, to invade and conquer, leading to a significant period of foreign rule in Egypt. Their dominance marked the transition into the Second Intermediate Period of Egyptian history.
