It was divided into 42 areas called nomes. Each one was governed by nomarch. The first period of Egyptian history, which ended in 2181 BC is called the Old Kingdom. During it, pharaohs built pyramids. In 1281 BC Egypt split into parts, and there were civil wars between them, which lasted until 2055 BC. During the Middle Kingdom, pharaohs carried out successful military campaigns, and more pyramids were built. The real end of ancient Egypt came with Christianity, which reached Alexandria by 70 AD and spread south by 180 AD.
