What is the form of government of ancient Egypt?
A kingdom with advisers (monarchy)Ancient Egypt would have been considered a Theocracy. A Gov't where the rulings where considered divine guidance interrupted through the use of clergy members. The Pharaoh was considered a living God, and his decrees where carried out mostly by priests in his court. Religion and Government was very close together unlike modern Kingdoms.
Can theocracy co exist with democracy?
No.This is a fundamental issue. In a theocracy, what is proper law or improper law is determined by those who can interpret the will of the divinities. This can either be a god-king or a cadre of priests or holy men. The god-kings are the result of a hereditary line and the priests are the result of a narrow and decades-long self-selection process. Both of these are thoroughly undemocratic as they do not express the will of the people, but the will of these minorities or of the gods they supposedly represent.There are countries like Iran that claim to have a mix of theocratic elements and democratic elements, but in reality, the democratic elements are more for show and lack actual force.
How has religion played important part in shaping American history?
The Spanish came to America because the people set out to find a new place to live for the freedom of religion. Early Americans lived very traditional lives centered around Christian belief.

In early American society there was no tolerance for other religions.
