  7. The New Kingdom is the best time period because Egypt had a great army and created a huge empire. The New Kingdom also was ruled by Ramses the Great who was one of the best leaders in Egypt. The New Kingdom also had the first woman pharaoh, Queen Hatshepsut.

  8. The most influencial Egyptian Kingdom in the ancient world is I think the old kingdom. I think that because during the old kingdom, Egypt was developing and soon became a strong and good government. Also, during this time the great pyramids were built, (one of the original seven wonders of the world) and overall helped the beginning of Egypt, it's achievements, and world history.

  9. The New Kingdom was the most influencial in the Egyprtian Empire. I think so because of the many strong and prosperous pharaohs. Egypt had lost their empire in 1750BC to the Hysoks, but they showed courage and bravery when they took their empire back in 1550BC. One of the longest serving pharaoh rule in the New Kingdom, Ramses the Great. He ruled for 60 years which influenced people to learn more about the Egyptian Empire and all their great accomplishments.

  12. The Old kingdom was the most influential because it was a strong starting point for the Egyptian empire. Menes was a great first pharaoh who was able to set a capital for Egypt, start its first dynasty, and unify Upper and Lower Egypt. After Menes, Egypt built cities, expanded trade, and set up a strong government during the Old Kingdom. It was these great accomplishments that set up Egypt to be one of the most powerful empires.

  14. The New Kingdom was the most influencial in the Egyptian Empire, I think this because firstly, their army was very strong and powerful and so were the pharoahs. They were also made history have the very first woman pharaoh, and her name was Queen Hatshepsut. With this happening thing started to change alittle for the respect for woman. And lastly one of the greatest pharaohs that ruled in Egypt (Ramses the Great) ruled during the New Kingdom age.

  15. The Old Kingdom is the most influential because it was when Lower Egypt and Upper Egypt were unified by Menes. He also built the first capital, Mephis. Menes was the first pharaoh and Khufu was the most famous. Khufu built the the great pyramids and the sphinx. The Old kingdom was the first kingdom and so it had many firts and therefore the is most influential kingdom.

  16. The most influencial time period was the New Kingdom.I think this because the Egyptian people
    had a great ruler and strong government. Ramses the Great was the pharaoh during this time and was one of the longest serving pharaohs ever. They lost their empire to the Hyksos i 1750BC but eventually defeted them and got it back. The Egyptians of the New Kingdom helped to mold the base of the culture of Egypt today.

  17. The most influential Kingdom was the Old Kingdom because it was the foundation of Egypt's culture in the Kingdoms to follow. King Kufu was one of the most famous ruler at this time and he had the Great Pyramid at Giza built which is the largest out of eighty. Egypt also developed cities, expanded trade, and set up a strong government. While Menes was the pharaoh he unified Upper and Lower Egypt, setting up a strong and prosperous start to Eygpt in the Old Kingdom.

  18. I think the New kingdom was the most influential to the egyptian empire. They had a great pharaoh named Ramses the Great. He led a strong army to protect egypt from the outside invaders. Also there was the first female pharaoh named Queen Hatshepsut.

  19. The Old Kingdom is the most influencial time period for the Egyptians. The Old Kingdom set up the other kingdoms to come with the help of Menes, a Pharaoh who untied Upper and Lower Egypt making it one big empire. This is also the time period when the culture of Egypt was being shaped by building the Great Pyramids and expanding cities. Trade also set up with a strong government and strong armies.This time period shaped Egypt to how it even is now.

  20. The most influential kingdom is the New Kingdom because during this time period Ramses the second ruled for over 60 years. He was a great ruler. Also he had many statues and monuments built of him self. King Ramses the second was also a great warrior which led the Egyptians into much success.

  22. I think the old kingdom was the most influential because it was the start of Eygpt. First Menes unified upper and lower Egypt as pharaoh.Then some of the first pyramids were built in Egypt. After King Khufu became pharaoh. He Made Eygpt's government very strong. He also was the one who built the Great Pyramid of Giza. Then king Khufu dies and the old kingdom ends 8 years later.

  24. The Egyptian Kingdom that i thought was the most influetial in the ancient world was The Old Kingdom. Why i think that is because Egypt at that time had roughly about 2 million people and that was when the social classes apperaed. Another reason i think The Old Kingdom was influiential was when some of the most well known monuments,pyramids,and structures were being built.

  25. I think that the old kingdom was the most influential. Because this was when Egypt really started to prosper. They had trade established. They also had very important Pharaohs for instance kofu. They also had the great pyramids that took 8 years to build.

  26. The Old kingdom was the most influential because it was a strong starting point for the Egyptian empire. Menes was able to set a capital for Egypt, start its first dynasty, and unify Upper and Lower Egypt. After Menes, Egypt built great cities, expanded their trade to farther empires, and began a strong government during the Old Kingdom. These actions made the Old Kingdom the most influential kingdom for Egypt.

  27. I think that the old kingdom is the most influential. Great pyramids and structures were being built which were shaping the beginning of Egypt. Menus united lower and upper Egypt and that was full Egypt. Basically Egypt really started of this so this was the beginning and most influential time period.

  28. I think the New Kingdom was the most influential for three reasons. One reason is the first Queen Pharaoh, Queen Hatshepsut. She was one of the most famous during this time. She expanded trade to the African Kingdom and Greece. The most famous king of all, Ramses ll. He has the most statues of himself in all of Egypt, and he was a great warrior. Then towards the beginnig of the New Kingdom the Egyptians invaded Hyksos instead of Hyksos invading them. They expanded their empire to the Euphrates River. Thats why I think the New Kingdom is the most influentail.

  29. The Old kingdom was the most influential because it was a strong starting point for the Egyptian empire. Menes was an amazing first pharoah who rose to power in Upper Egypt but later unifeid Upper and Lower Egypt together. He started the beginning of the first dynasty and ruled with his desendents for a solid 200 years. After Menes, Egypt expanded trade, built cities, and set up a strong government. Khufu, the most famous pharaoh of the Old Kingdom, then came into power and built the Great Pyramids (one of the seven wonders of the world). These accomplishments led to a powerful rule in Ancient Egypt for later years to come.

  30. I think that the old kingdom was the most important because it brought upper and lower Egypt together. whithout Menes Egypt would not have been united and would not have created some other important landmarks. one landmark might have been the great pyramid of Giza, with out kufu these would not have been created and do not forget they are one of the only standing ancient wonders of the world.

  31. I think that the old Kingdom is the most influential period for Egypt. In this time Menes the pharoh unified upper and lower Egypt. Also the pharoh Kufu had the Great Pyrmaid of Giza made. It is the last standing ancient wonder of the world.Menes also made a peace trety with Nubia with very few problems/conflicts.

  33. The old kingdom was the most influential because menes combined upper and lowwer egypt. Also the first pyrmids were built. Menes was the first pharaoh and was a very inspiring god-like pharaoh. the old kingdom is the most nfluential because of these reasons.

  34. The old kingdom was the most infuential because Egypt was united for the first time under Menes. I'm not saying that they wouldn't have united later without Menes, but he started them off early so that they could build up their empire. All three kingdoms might have been important, but I think the old kingdom was definitely the most influential.

  35. I think that the old kingdom is the most influential kingdom. One reason is that Menes unified Egypt. He created the first dynasty and respected upper and lower Egypt by wearing the combined crown. Another reason is that pharaoh Khufu ruled during this period, he is the most famous pharaoh. He built the massive, 48 stories high, nine football fields long, great pyramid on the Giza plateau. Another important advancement is that social class was created during this time. The old kingdom had some great leaders and great monuments. That is why I think the old kingdom is the most influential period.

  36. The Old Kingdom was the most influential kingdom in the ancient world because Menes had had Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt unified as one empire in 3100 BC. During the Old Kingdom, Pharaoh Khufu built the Great Pyramid of Giza as a tomb for himself. It is now the only standing ancient wonder of the world left. Egypt grew in power in this period and by building cities like the capital, Memphis, and expanding trade to foreign lands. At this time, Egypt had set up a good government that helped keep order between the social classes. The Old Kingdom was a very successful period in Egyptian history that helped Egypt flourish in the other kingdoms.

  37. I think the new kingdom was the most influential kingdom. First, because during this time Egypt had expanded their empire all the way from the Euphrates river to southern Nubia. This conquest made egypt rich. Also during the new kingdom Ramses the Great ruled, and he was famous for being a good pharaoh and a great warrior. But he also is known for making the worlds first peace treaty with the Hitties. These events during the new kingdom greatly influenced the ancient world

  38. I think that the most influential Egyptian Kingdom in the ancient world was the old kingdom. I think this because it had many important and influential leaders such as Menes. He united upper and lower Egypt and a different leader may not have done that. Also, some of the first pyramids were built and they became very important in Egyptian culture. The old kingdom had many important things that happened during that period which is why it is the most influential.

Ramses the Great was one of Egypt's best leaders. He lead his army to conquer tons of land and destroy many territories. The New Kingdom also had the first woman Pharaoh in Egypt; Queen Hatshepsut.

  41. The "Old Kingdom" was the most influential. This is, because it shows leadership and cooperation from both Upper and Lower Egypt. King Menes who united them and became pharoah, is an example of this. Also, King Khufu, who built the Great Pyramids of Giza, is another example. This proves the opinion.

  42. I think the new kingdom was the most influential out of them because they had the most famous king ever Ramses II. He is a great leader and warrior. There are more statues of Ramses II in egypt than any other person. Another reason is that The New Kingdom had the first female Pharoah, Queen Hatshepsut.

  43. During ancient Egyptian time, the Old Kingdom was the most influential kingdom. The Old Kingdom was the foundation or the building blocks for the kingdoms that came after it. During this time, starting in 2700 BC, the great and very powerful and first pharaoh Menes unified Upper an Lower Egypt. Also in the Old kingdom, King Khufu ruled. He was one of the most famous rulers in Egyptian time. The Great pyramid of Giza was built, too. This was a very healthy time for Egypt in its history because they also set up a strong government and expanded their trading. As they say, the first is always the best and in this case the first Kingdom was the most influential.

  46. The Old kingdom was the most influential time period to the Egyptian empire. One reason why is because this is when Menes united Upper and Lower Egypt. Another reason why the Old kingdom was the most influential time period is because one of the most famous and successful pharaohs ruled at this time and his name was Khufu. One more reason why this time period was so influential is that during this time the largest temple ever discovered was built and it is known as the Great Pyramid of Giza. Clearly the Old kingdom was the most influential time period to the Egyptian empire.

  47. I think the Old Kingdom was the most influencial. The Old kingdom essentially built Egypt. Upper and Lower Egypt were both united because of powerful King Menes and Kufu. There were also famous pyramids built for King Kufu.

    the new kingdom because that is when egypt wa doing fine and is when they had great power. Ramses ll was the leader and one of the most famous. he ruled in the new kingdom. when he ruled egypt had an extended empire and was very wealthy at the time. and also Ramses had a temple built and is another great torist attraction that tells about the construction and life in egypt at that time.

  49. I think the Old Kingdom was the most influencial. I think this because this is when Menes united both Upper and Lower Egypt. In the Old Kingdom Khufu also built the Great Pyrimad which is still the biggest pyrimad. But this was only one of the 80 pyrimads. The last reason the Old Kingdom was the most influencial is because this was the first kingdom and the other kingdoms built off of it. These are some of the reasons why the Old Kingdom was the most infuencial.

  50. I think the Old Kingdom influenced the Egyptians the most. First of all, it was the time period when the first pryramids were built and when the largest of the pyramids was built. It was also the time period when Menes united Upper and Lower Egypt. Lastly, Pharaoh Khufu was one of the many great pharaohs in the Old Kingdom. The Egyptians were influenced by The Old Kingdom the most.

  51. In my opinion, scribes are the most important out of all the sociel classes.They can measure the Nile River, write down taxes, plan out war stradegies, andcount the farmer's harvest. Without scribes, Egypt would fall apart.

  52. I think the old kingdom is the most influencial. I think this because it was the first kingdom out of all three! I think this also because they built many pyramids including the Great pyrmaid which was the biggest out of the 80 pyramids. This pyramids is still standing to this day. Also because Menes ruled Upper and Lower Egypt. Those are my reasons why the Old Kingdom is the most infuencial.

  53. I think the Old Kingdom was the most influencial of all Kingdoms because Menes unified both upper and lower Egypt.Another reason why the old kingdom was the most influencial beacause the first pyrimads were built at that time and the Great pyramid of Giza was being built. Thats why I think the Old Kingdom is the most influencial of the other kingdoms.

  54. I am sorry about what I said about scribes. I think that the Old Kingdom was the most successful because it started Egypt with the Hieryogliphs and the social classes. Thay made 80 pyramids and the most famous of them all is the pyramid of Pharaoh Tut. The new kingdom is the best in my opinion.

  55. My opinion is that the old kingdom is the best. I was the best because they build the pyrimids of giza. Also because the menes unifies uper and lower egypt. Last is because it was the first kingdom for all three kingdoms.

  56. In my opinion the New Kingdom was the best. the New Kingdom was the best because that was when Egypt had a huge empire and also had a big and powerful army. The New kingdom is also knowen for haveing the first pharoh that was a girl, Queen Hatshepsut. Hatshepsut exspanded trade. In my opinion the New Kingdow was the most influencial.

  57. I think that the New Kingdom was the best, because they had a huge empire. Also because since they had such a big empire they had really good trading. Another thing is that they had the best army so no one could invade them. Queen Hatshepsut expanded there trade to an extatic level so that was good to. That is why i think the New Kingdom was the best out of the three.

  60. The New Kingdom was the best because, after the invasion of the Hyksos the Egyptians decided to buckle down and invade them right back. This is good because they took control of the Euphrates River and southern Nubia. They flourished in trade by invading other countries and got free goods which made them rich.

  66. The Old Kingdom was the most influential in the ancient world. I think that this is true because the Old Kingdom what set up the Middle and New Kingdom for success. In 3100 BC, Menes unified Upper and Lower and Egypt. He was the first king to do this, and his reign was during the Old Kingdom. Also, one of the greatest pieces of architecture, the Great Pyramid of Giza, was built in 2540 BC, also during the Old Kingdom.

  67. The time period that was most influential was the old kingdom. This is because in 3100 menes unified lower and upper egypt by marrying a lower egypt princess. Also during his reign he built cities, expanded trade, and set up a strong government for the middle and new kingdom. Also then in 2500 king khufu ruled. lastyly in 2540 the great pyrimid was built.

  68. The most influential time period was the old kingdom. Although before the official start of the old kingdom, in 3100 BC, Menes unified upper and lower egypt. This formed one whole country, and a future in prosper. Also, in 2540 BC, one of the 7 wonders of the anicent world was built: the Pyramid of Giza. Without a unified country, The people of lower and upper egypt wouldn't be as succesful as they would be as a whole county.

  69. The Old Kingdom, from 2700 BC through 2200 BC, was the most influential time period. During this time, Menes, the man who unified Upper and Lower Egypt, was the first pharaoh and began the first dynasty, or series of rulers from the same family or ethnic group. During this time period, Egyptians also expanded trade, grew a strong government, and built cities and pyramids. On of these pyramids was built for the most famous pharaoh of the Old Kingdom, Khufu, during his time of reign in the 2500s BC. The Old Kingdom was the building block for the following time periods in Egypt, making it the most influential.

  70. The Old Kingdom was the most influetial kingdom in Egypt, this period lasted from 2700 BC through 2200 BC. There was a man named Menes who unifed upper and lower Egypt, he became the first pharoh. Durring the Old Kingdom the aincent egyptians started buliding cities, pyramids, and goverments. Trading also started taking place in Egypt. These beautiful pyramids were bulit for the most powerful pharoh named Khufu. I believe that the Old Kingdom was definitley the most best time period in Egypt.

  71. I think the New Kingdom was the most influential kindom in Egypt because that was the time of the first female pharaoh, Hatshepsut. She made peace, economic, and trade success in Egpyt. This is also the time when King Ramses II, one of the most famous pharahs, was in power. He made very strong armies against invaders. This is why I think the New Kingdom was the most influential kingdom in Egypt.

  72. I think the Old Kingdom was the most influential kingdomand Egypt because it was the starting point of the Egyptian Empire. Also, it was the period where Menes unified Lower and Upper Egypt. During that time Egypt became the most poweful civilization and expanded it's government and economic success. Without the unity of Upper and Lower Egypt and the Old Kingdom; Egypt would not have been as successful as it was.

  74. I think the Old Kngdom was the most influencial out of the three kingdoms of Egypt. I think this because during this period of time Menes unified Upper and Lower Egypt, causing Egypt to become stronger. Also, the great, powerful, pharaoh Khufu ruled during this time. He built the amazing Pyramid of Giza while he reigned. Finally, trade had expanded and the goverment grew more powerful. Khufu, Menes, and the advances in goverment and trade make the 500 years of the Old Kingdom make it the most influencial time period.

  75. I think the new kingdom was the most influencial to Egypt. One reason is because one of the greatest pharoahs, Ramses II, ruled during the new kingdom. Queen Hatshepsut, the first female pharoah, also ruled during the new kingdom. Lastly trade was expanded to African kingdom of Punt, the Asia Minor, and Greece during the new kingdom. The new kingdom was a sucessful and prosperous time period.

  76. In my opinian in Ancient Egypt the Old kingdom was the most important. Menes was a very important leader and led Eof gyptians to success Because of him the upper and lower Egypt united. Another example of success king Khufu, he built the great pyramid of giza. This is my opinian on how the Old Kingdom was a very important to Ancient Egypt

  77. The New Kingdom is the most influencial because Egypt had a large empire that streched from the Euphrates River to southern Nubia. Trade also expanded which made Egypt rich and powerful. And great leaders ruled Egypt like Ramses ||, the oldest living pharaoh, and Queen Hatshepsut, the first female pharaoh. Because of these events I think the New Kingdom was the most influencial time period in Ancient Egypt.

  78. The New Kingdom is the most influencial kingdom out of the three. First of all it had a very influencial pharaoh named Menes. Menes helped expand trade to other areas. Queen Hatshepsut ruled during this time and she was the first female pharaoh. The final thing that makes the New Kingdom the most influencial is that the empire expanded making Egypt rich.

  91. I think that the new kingdom was the most influencial time period of the kingdoms.I say this for many reasons. One of the reasons is they had extremely powerful pharohs that controlled the kingdom.Another reason is because of the modern buliding types they had which made it easier to be safe from invaders.The last reason i think the new kingdom was the most important was becasuse of the weapons they had that were different than the simple stone weapons they have iron swords and advanced shields to kill and protect theyre citezins thats why i think the new kingdom was the most influencial.

  92. The old kingdom was most influencial because it was able to maintain a grand period of time. Another reason is because King Menes started the first dynasty and was the first of anyone to step up and unify upper and lower Egypt for a period of time. Another reason why is because the Old kingdom expanded trade wider then the other two periods in Egypt.Lastely it was when the great pyramids had been built. -Ryan Spurr P.7 :)

  94. I think the Old Kingdom was the most influetial empire. It Had really strong rulers such as Khufu and Menes. Menes unified upper and lower Egypt. He also built the first city called Memphis. The Pyrimaids of Giza were built in the time period. The Pyramaids were biult for the powerful ruler Khufu. Large trade and trade routes were widely spread. The Old kingdom was a very influential time period.

  96. The most influential kingdom was the New Kingdom. Mainly because they expanded trade to the African kingdom Punt and to Asia Minor and Greece. This trade made them rich. Also, the New Kingdom used an offensive defense and took over many areas including the Hyksos homeland, Syria to the North and the Kush. The New Kingdom also had two very successful leaders, Queen Hatshepsut and RamsesII (Ramses the Great).

  97. The most influential kingdom was the Old Kingdom. During the Old Kingdom, Egypt built cities, expanded trade, which made them rich and set up a strong government, which made them powerful. Pharaohs had grand palaces and were considered gods. Khufu, the most famous pharaoh in the Old Kingdom, had the largest pyramid built for him during this time.

  98. I think the new kingdom was the most influential. In this time period the Egyptians invaded the hyksos homeland and Syria to the north. This conquering expanded their trade to distant lands. Also, when they conquered people they took valuable resources which made them even richer. Plus Ramses the 2 ruled in the new kingdom, he is one of the most famous rulers.

  99. The most influenjcial kindom was the New Kingdom. It had many famous pharohs in it like Tutankamen, Hatshepsut, and Ramses the second. In the new Kiundom there army was made larger and more dominite so they conquered many more places around them. With their resources and ones from places they conquered they became rich from trade. That's whuy i think the New Kingdom was the most influencial.

  101. I believe that the most influencial kingdom of Ancient Egypt was the New Kingdom because Ramses the Great ruled. He fixed the sphinx, finished the Temple of Karnak, and built a city with beautiful gardens and statues of himself. He is most famous for building the temple at Abu Simbel. Also, the New Kingdom was when a lot of medicines were discovered and armies were made stronger. Also during this time the first peace treaty was made.

  103. The New Kingdom was in my opinion the most influential. Many important Pharohs ruled at that time such as: Tutankaman, Hatshepsut, and Ramses the second.Hatshepsut was also the first woman pharoh to rule. When the Egyptians army became stronger they were able to conquer more people, making Egypt more wealthy from the resources they were earning from the conquered. That's why I think that the New Kingdom was the most influential.

  104. I think the most influencial kingdom of Ancient Egypt was the Old Kingdom. I think this kingdom was the most influencial because, Menes unified Lower and Upper Egypt. A second reason why I think the Old Kingdom was influencial is because it was the first time pyramids were ever built. A third reason the Old Kingdom was the most influencial was because, Pharoah Knufu's reign begins. Also, the Great Pyramid of Giza was built. This is why I think the most influencial kingdom of all the Ancient World was the Old Kingdom.

  121. In my opinion the Old kingdom was the most influential. I think this because upper and Lower Egypt were united by Menes at this time, which was a very important step in ancient Egypt's history. Also, in around 2540BC Khufu built the great pyramid. The first capital, memphis, was built and a strong government was formed.

  122. I believe that the Old Kingdom was the most influential of the three kingdoms. Between the years 3100BC- 2200BC many accomplishments were achieved. Menes unified Lower and Upper Egypt, and to show his unified power he wore both the red crown of Lower Egypt and the white crown of Upper Egypt. When Pharaoh Khufu was king, he had Egyptians building him a tomb which came to be known as the Great Pyramid of Giza. This pyramid is now the largest of all 80 Egyptian pyramids. To get building materials for Pharaoh Khufu and to travel back and forth to Lower and Upper Egypt there needed to be roads and cities along with trade. During the Old Kingdom Egypt built these cities and expanded their trade. These are some of the reasons why I believe that out of all three kingdoms the Old Kingdom was the most influential in the ancient world.

  124. The old kingdom was the most influential kingdom because it had Menes, who united Egypt, one of the most influential ancient nations that there ever was. That is when the Egyptians invent hieroglyphics and even built the great pyramids. When Menes united the two Egyptian nations into one, he started one of the most amazing and influential ancient countries because they invented ( or starred the idea for alot of very important modern things, like writing architecture and even astronomy. The gret pyramids were also built in the old kingdom, and they were the largest structures on earth until the 1300's.

  125. In my opinion I think the Old Kingdom is the most influencial of the Egyptian Kingdoms for many reasons. One reason is because they Old Kingdom was the first kingdom and without a first kingdom there would have never been a second or third. Also Menes was a great pharaoh who united Upper and Lower Egypt, which was a very important and key event in our history. Another reason I think the Old Kingdom was the most influential kingdom is because in this kingdom the Great Pyramids of Giza were built, which are the only seven Wonders of the Ancient World left. Finally, a strong government was formed which took part in shaping history.

Another reason is because of the Pharaoh Kufu. he was in charge of the great pyramid of Giza, which is still standing today, and was his burial tomb(the first pyramid in Giza). Some say he was cruel, but some think he was a good leader. that is why i think the old kingdom was the most influential.

  127. The New Kingdom was the most influential in the ancient world because of the strong rulers during that time period. Queen Hatshepsut, who ruled around 1473 was a female pharaoh who was very skilled. Another influential ruler during the New Kingdom was Ramses II. He was a talented warrior, leader, and of course peacemaker, which was very important to the Egyptians at that time. He ruled for 60 years and was respected by his people. Archaeologists have even nicknamed him Ramses the Great. Without these leaders, the Egyptian civilization would have fallen apart.
