The Entire History of Ancient Egypt in 45 Minutes

Five thousand years ago, on the banks of the Nile, a civilization was born that would last three thousand years — longer than any empire before or since. Its kings called themselves gods. Its pyramids still defy explanation. This is the ENTIRE history of Ancient Egypt in one documentary: the first king who united two lands, the pyramid builders of Giza, the invaders who broke the kingdom and the pharaohs who rebuilt it greater than before, the queen who ruled as a king, the heretic who tried to erase the gods, the boy king's golden tomb, Ramesses the Great and the Battle of Kadesh, the secrets of mummification, three thousand years of rise and twilight — all the way to Alexander, Cleopatra, and the Roman takeover.
