  • Politics and Government in Ancient Egypt

    Leslie C Kaplan

    Paperback (Rosen Publishing Group, Jan. 1, 2004)
    Ancient Egypt began not as a sophisticated civilization, but rather as many different tribes ruled by separate kings. The government evolved as Egypt was united under one ruler, the pharaoh. Students will learn that even politics and government in Egypt were tied to religion. The king was thought to be the personification of the god Horus. Students will also learn that the Egyptians obeyed laws and were tried in courts if they broke those laws, much as today.
