The pharaohs lost power at the end of the Old Kingdom due to a combination of factors, including prolonged droughts that led to famine and economic instability, weakening the central authority. Additionally, the rise of local governors or nomarchs, who gained more autonomy and influence over their regions, diminished the pharaoh's control. Internal strife and political fragmentation further eroded the unity of the kingdom, ultimately leading to the collapse of the Old Kingdom and the onset of the First Intermediate Period.
