Geography:
Whilst considering a trip back in time to Ancient Egypt you may wish to review the geographical conditions of the land. The Ancient Egyptian Civilisation will be located in upper Egypt's part of the Nile river. They started a civilisation in the Nile valley. The landscape is generally desert with grassy river banks and swamp land areas where the Nile River connects to the ocean. Weather in Egypt is fairly hot most of the time but has very cool evenings and as night falls it begins to cool down as Egypt is in the middle of the desert. The opening to the ocean is a very green area with many wetlands and swamps which surround the the ocean shores.
The Nile River is the key to this civilisations survival. It provides transportation to further parts of the country, food in the means of fish. The Nile also produces enriching floods that fertilised the near by land which help the people grow their crops. The banks of the Nile also provided fertilised soil for growing the plants needed to make papyrus which is naturally grown on Egyptian land. Papyrus was indeed helpful to the development of Egyptian education. Papyrus was widely used as a writing material during this period of time.
What is the main city in Ancient Egypt?
Memphis is the capital of Ancient Egypt. It is a "big city" for Ancient times and has been a major city for a while now. It had a few legends that have truly put this city on the map!
What type of foods can you try in Ancient Egypt?
The important foods in Ancient Egypt are bread and beer, supplemented by onions and other vegetables and dried fish. Meat is generally not eaten often by most Egyptians, as meat is more of a special occasion thing. Bread dough is hand made by the Egyptians and needed using their feet when making large quantities. Have a go at making your own homemade dough in Ancient Egypt!
What are some must see tourists attractions in Ancient Egypt?
Pyramids, sphinx and the Nile river are just a few of many amazing Ancient Egyptian sites. These tourist attractions date back to more ancient times. The pyramids are very ancient and things are still being discovered. The sphinx is really old and people still don't know why it was built. Many of these attractions have unknown reasons for their existence, maybe you could try and discover something new!

Religion:
At this time there are many beliefs rather than one simple idea. Many of the Gods that are more widely known have the appearance of different animals however some are known as plants, it really depended on the Gods personality. 'Good luck' is a belief that is very close to every Egyptians heart and therefore they wear lucky charms and look for good omens to reveal their future or the gods' wishes. Why not pop down to the local markets to buy yourself a lucky charm?
It is also believed that people who are priest-magicians could keep away the bad luck. People believe that the gods were able to send the spirits of the priest-magicians to live on in the form of creatures in which they were closest associated to. Pleasing the gods is considered important. The 'official' gods and goddesses are worshipped by pharaohs and priests in large temples. Other gods are worshipped by ordinary people in their homes. These are the gods and goddesses that protected the people from dangers in everyday life.
Egyptians don't question their beliefs and as a result most having a strong religious connection with god. Priests and pharaohs are basically in charge of the whole religious aspect of life. However, for the people who pray at home obviously will be in charge of their religious actions. People are mummified and their organs are kept in safe keeping jars and other containers. When a mother had a miscarriage, the baby would be buried alongside the mother in her tomb when she died.

Events and Dates:
Here is some background information of Ancient Egypt...
Predynastic Period (5500 - 3100 BC): During this period we see a civilised ancient society beginning to form. Animals such as donkeys are tamed and used in daily life and not just as a food source. However at this time many kings ruled Egypt each fighting for their own kingdom to rule.
Early Dynastic Period (2920 - 2650 BC): Hieroglyphs were created. During this time frame there were over 30 kings that ruled however by the end of this period Egypt was classified as one Kingdom ruled by one pharaoh at a time. Monuments (such as temples) were also beginning to be built during this time.
Old Kingdom (2650 - 2152 BC): The capital was in the North and Pharaohs still held a solid rein. It was at this time when the first of the earliest versions of pyramids were under construction. At this time the pyramids were made out of mud bricks however later they were to be made out of stone. Doctors also began to learn more about the human body and Pharaohs were worshiped and considered as gods!
First Intermediate Period (2150 - 1986 BC): The Nile river had flooded and had washed away all the crops causing death and starvation for the people that lived on the banks of the river. The Pharaoh had lost control of Egypt to the local government.
Middle Kingdom - (1986 - 1759 BC): Foreign trade began to occur and wealth was restored into the growing ancient Egyptian population. The Pharaohs power was restored during the middle of this period and once again Egypt was ruled by one pharaoh instead of the local government.
Second Intermediate Period (1759 - 1539 BC): Immigrants began to move into Egypt however they followed their own rules and laws and didn't recognise the Pharaohs powerful rule.
New Kingdom (1539 - 1069 BC): Egypt regained strength and power. They treated immigrants badly. The strongest ruler of the period was Ramses II however after his death followed many weak rulers.
Third Intermediate Period (1070 - 657 BC): There was a lot of confusion and political chaos at the time
Late Kingdom - (664 - 332 BC): Greece ruled Egypt in the form of Alexander the Great.

Politics:
Mainly it is the Pharaoh who rule the country but sometimes it is the government who take control over Egypt. However it is the Pharaoh that owns everything. Everyday the people who work for the government report to their advisor who is there superior, but the highest of the highest (the Vizier) reported to the pharaoh. The Vizier is also the judge in the high court, the locals will be sent there if their law problems can not be solved in the local courts. The Viziers decision in court is final however he did try to be as fair as possible.
