The phrase "pharaohs were worshiped as gods" means that in ancient Egypt, pharaohs were not only seen as political leaders but also as divine figures. They were believed to embody the gods on Earth, serving as intermediaries between the gods and the people. This belief justified their authority and power, leading to elaborate rituals, temples, and monuments dedicated to their worship even after their death. As such, pharaohs played a central role in both religion and governance in ancient Egyptian society.

Ancient Egyptians viewed their pharaohs as living gods. They were the personification of AMUN-RA the king of gods, and when they died they became true gods. Therefore these pharaohs weren't only regarded as the kings of Egypt but as divinity. Egyptians believed that their pharaoh bore full responsibility for the kingdom's well-being, the sun to rise, the rivers to overflow, and the crops to grow.
