Today we discussed the three Egyptian kingdoms (Old, Middle, and New) and how they were so different. Students have already completed a graphic organizer regarding this topic and the lesson today should have clarified the most important points.
The Old Kingdom was very much focused on trading with others (in Nubia and across the Mediterranean Sea) and peace.
The Middle Kingdom was one of great expansion in terms of infrastructure. During this period, a lot of Egypt's wealth was spent on building up the kingdom.
The New Kingdom was determined to build a great military (for protection) as well as dedicated to territorial expansion.
