The main differences between ancient Rome and ancient Egypt was in perception of life. Egypt was an eastern empire with the typical Eastern views of life, such as ruler worship---the Egyptians considered their pharaoh a living god. The Egyptians also had a sense of continuity. Their land, religion and type of government remained consistent for thousands of years, regardless if they were the conquered or the conquerors. Rome, on the other hand was a western society that was open to change. The Romans experienced three types of government, absorbed many cultures, and never practiced living emperor worship.

Answer 4

There are many, many differences between the ancient civilizations of Greece and Egypt.

Firstly, the time frames are quite different. "Ancient Egypt" dates back to around 3500 BCE, whereas "Ancient Greece" began much later, during the Archaic period (8th to 6th century BCE).

Secondly, the religions were very different.

Ancient Greek religion consisted of 12 main Olympian Gods (and many others), and stories were told about gods and heroes. Their gods were quite human-like in depiction and personality. The main Gods were Zeus, Poseidon and Hades.

Ancient Egyptian gods began in a non-embodied form - but later usually took the form of animals or animal-like humans. The main Gods were Osiris and Horus.

Thirdly, these civilizations occurred in different geographical regions. Greece, located in modern-day Europe, bordered the Aegean, Ionian and Mediterranean Seas. Eygpt is located in Northeastern Africa. This made their climates different, and meant they had different neighbouring countries.

They had very different architectural styles. Egypt is remembered for the pyramids, Greece is remembered for columns.

The political structures were very different. Ancient Greece was made up of many self-governing city-states, some of which were/became democratic. Ancient Egypt developed into two Kingdoms, which were then united into one large Kingdom.

Ancient Egypt contained one of the earliest forms of writing - hieroglyphs.

Ancient Greece is known for sculptures and other art forms.

These are just some of the differences between these two cultures. The links below will give you more information.
