kush got killed by his younger nepew homuk and then kushes queen took over her name was hatshepsut and then she married thutmes 2
Listen, people, sorry, but, that answer above mine is completely wrong. Hatshepsut was the queen of Egypt for a while. Kush was a kingdom created but the Nubians. Hatshepsut was married to Pharaoh Thutmose the second and then he died. Hatshepsut decided to declare herself queen and made Egypt very wealthy through trade. She remarried, but her stepson, Thutmose the third, wanted to be pharaoh and overthrew Hatshepsut. Thutmose the third destroyed temples and statues for/of Hatshepsut. Again, that one answer above mine is not correct, Kush was a kingdom.Based on being located between the Arabian and Libyan deserts, Egypt became dependent upon the Nile River which flows north into the Mediterranean from Lake Victoria. Due to low rainfall in the region, the Nile was important to its development. It provided a fertile region in the middle of the two deserts and allowed Egyptians to develop a powerful empire based on agricultural wealth.
