Universe according to ancient Egypt.

The oldest government has been known and developed is the ancient Egyptian government. Government signs can be seen clearly from the legacy. From the sacred scriptures of all faiths in the world also writes about the history of the ancient Egyptian government. The work of the people who are ruled by pharaohs be spectacular relics, call it like a pyramid which now stands proudly in the land of Egypt.

Sun gives light and heat can make plants grow well. So it is with wild animals and livestock can breed properly. But the sun can also turn off if it wants to. So opinions and beliefs. Mind's way of ancient Egyptian society at the time the sun is the most powerful thing. Assumption that transformed into a system of beliefs and faiths Monotheism with the sun as a god or God almighty.




Thus, god is the greatest power of the sun god. They called Amon Ra is often also called the god Ra. God this is the greatest power among other gods the types that many. The Sun God has unrestricted power to anything on the surface of this earth. Absolute power or authority is absolute. There is no other power on earth or in heaven that can match the power. As a representative of the god ra to perform power on earth is the king of Egypt or Pharaoh. This royalty in itself be an absolute authority.


Kings who ruled ancient Egypt are descendants of the sun god. Purity of blood must remain secure. Royal blood substitute candidate can not mix with the blood of the people.
