Which god was the most important for the Egyptians?

It depends on what city you're talking about in Egypt. Gods like Ra, Amun and Osiris would have been national gods - worshipped everywhere, but they had cult centres where they were particularly venerated. Some gods were worshipped more than others in certain cities. As a short answer, it would probably be either Amun-Ra or Osiris. They thought Ra was the most important god because they believed Ra gave life to earth.
