3,000 Years of Egypt: From Narmer to Cleopatra

What happens when the Nile fails, the pharaoh is powerless, and a kingdom of millions begins to starve? Egypt collapsed, was conquered, and was written off again and again. Yet it rose every single time. This cinematic documentary follows ancient Egypt from Narmer's unification to Cleopatra's fall, through famine, civil war, foreign invasion, and the pharaohs who refused to let it die: Imhotep, Khufu, Hatshepsut, Thutmose III, Akhenaten, Tutankhamun and Ramesses the Great. ⏱ CHAPTERS 0:00 The Year the Nile Failed 0:30 Narmer Unites Two Kingdoms 1:30 The River That Built a Civilization 2:50 Imhotep and the First Pyramid 3:30 Khufu and the Great Pyramid 5:00 Collapse and Famine 6:30 Mentuhotep Reunites Egypt 7:40 The Hyksos Invasion 8:30 Ahmose Drives Them Out 9:10 Hatshepsut, the Woman Pharaoh 10:20 Thutmose III and the Battle of Megiddo 11:20 Akhenaten Defies the Gods 12:20 Tutankhamun and the Hidden Tomb 13:10 Ramesses the Great at Kadesh 14:20 Cleopatra and the Fall to Rome 14:40 Why Egypt Never Truly Died 👍 If this story gripped you, like the video and subscribe for more cinematic history documentaries. 💬 Which pharaoh would you want to hear the full story of next?
