What happens in the afterlife depends on which religion you follow, however most modern religions say that there is some form of judgement in which the fate of the soul is determined.
Christians, Jews, Muslims and Zoroastrians say that the souls of believers will go to heaven or paradise, although in most cases this may depend on the sins the person committed on earth. Catholics believe that believers who have committed minor (venial) sins, that have not been forgiven, will spend some time in a purgatory, a place of temporary punishment; they also believe that the souls of unbaptised babies go to limbo, although the Church appears to be moving away from this doctrine. In heaven, souls can live in comfort and joy, and in the eternal company of God. Muslims also believe that those who take part in jihad go straight to heaven, without further judgement, and are met by eternal virgins. Those who are judged unworthy of heaven go to hell. This is typically thought of as a place of fire and eternal punishment.
Daoists and some Buddhists believe that the soul is reincarnated as a new person, in a never-ending cycle, until perfect knowledge and righteousness is achieved. The soul then goes to heaven and joins the gods.
Atheists believe there is no afterlife.

In the ancient Egyptian belief system, it was believed that when an Egyptian died, their soul would journey to the afterlife where it would be judged by the gods. If their heart was found to be as light as a feather, they would be granted eternal life in the afterlife. If not, they would face punishment. Burial practices, such as mummification and burial with grave goods, were conducted to aid the deceased in their journey to the afterlife.
That's sort of like saying what people think happens in American after death. Mexico has no defined religion so therefore no 1 afterlife.
What is the afterlife
Khufu, an ancient Egyptian pharaoh, believed in the concept of an afterlife based on the religious beliefs of the time. The Egyptians believed in a complex system of gods, rituals, and funerary practices that would ensure a successful transition to the afterlife. Khufu likely followed these beliefs and rituals, such as the construction of elaborate tombs and pyramids, to ensure his eternal existence in the afterlife according to Egyptian religious beliefs.
