    1. In ancient Egypt, Pharaohs were the people in charge with the most power, similar to a king or leader that we might see in the present day.

    2. This fascinating river remains an invaluble source of life for Egyptians to this day. More than 95% of the country’s population depends on its water and live within a few miles of the banks.
