Menes might have wanted to take power of the full Egypt, or he didn't want to start a war between North and South Egypt. He wanted to be the king of everything in the human world. So Menes wore both red and white crowns.
because he wanted power over everything (as is human nature)
because he wanted to be so powerful and control the people
he wanted to be cool and make the other kings jelly of him. also, he can make new friends. ;)
No, The first Pharoah to rule over the upper and lower kingdoms was Pharoah Menes
I had this same question to on my social studies packet so i'm pretty sure three details would be .. 1) Narmer is also known as Menes. 2) Narmer united two kingdoms 3) Narmer was king of upper egypt and ruled or took over lower egypt.
The traditional date is 2686 BCE, however there is debate over whether Narmer did it or Menes did it, or whether Narmer and Menes were the one person.
It was always known that there was some early king who unified the two kingdoms, basically, Egyptologists believe this is Narmer. However, the tombs of earlier kings have been found, such as the tomb of King Scorpion which is thought to be around 5000 years old. The early history of Egypt is not as well documented as its later history, and experts are doing their best to piece together what evidence they have.
King Mene's main contribution to the success of Egypt was that he took over Lower Egypt and overthrew the king of Lower Egypt and he united both upper and lower Egypt into one great big kingdom. King Menes (or Narmer as he is also known) also showed unity of these two lands by building the city of Memphis which is in the middle of where the border of Upper and lower Egypt was. he also created the doudle crown, a crown made up of both the crown of Upper Egypt (the White Crown,) and the crown of Lower Egypt (the Red Crown)
because he wanted to be so powerful and control the people
King Menes was the one that defeated the King of lower Egypt. After it was all over King Menes had united both lands together.

Menes was the first king or pharaoh of ancient Egypt. He founded a dynasty of eight pharaohs. He reigned for over sixty years and his crowning achievement was the development of the city of Memphis. There is some dispute as to who Menes actually was. Historians are divided on whether Menes was actually Narmer or if he was Hor-Aha, both are credited with the unification of Egypt.
King Menes wore a white crown when he ruled Upper Egypt. After taking over Lower Egypt he adopted a double crown which was both red and white.
The rive that ancient Egyptian kingdoms rose and fell on would be the Nile. The rive that ancient Egyptian kingdoms rose and fell on would be the Nile. The rise and fall of the ancient egyptians are enemies taking them over
