All thanks to you, the kingdom has been stable for the last few years. You have developed trade routes and also made Egypt into being rich. However, one thing is that the country is VULNERABLE TO ATTACK. Because of this one reason, many nobles are currently unhappy with your decisions.

I am very concerned about your future. I liked how you focused on trade. But there seems to be some issue. I think you should say to the noble that you can't control the weather even though you claim you're a god.

I am a farmer who works hard. However, you the great pharaoh is taking most of the crops as taxes. Also, it is stressful to work on pyramids on the sunny day. I lost my hand and leg in the battle that you said to go in so I want to get more money and service.

I appreciate your effort so that our country can be stable. You have created many different trade routes which resulted our Egypt to be wealthy. HOWEVER, our country is too WEAK to Invasions. And currently we are strongly disagreeing to your decisions. We are STRONGLY Agreeing that you should resign from role as Pharaoh.

Sincerely,
Representative of Nobles, Alvin

I appreciate the work you are doing and how I am not a slave and living a peaceful life while writing to citizens. the one thing that is bothering me is that you go to many wars and there has been a drought for some time, I'm concerned about my crops, farmers worked hard to make and produce the crops, so can you stop continuously battling wars. I would like if you also would stop taxing the poor because they are still short on money. I think it would be the best is you resigned being pharaoh and let a more responsible ruler to become the pharaoh, if you disagree, I think we should build a stronger army with advanced technology, for example chariots, bow and arrows, and better armor to protect the soldiers. I think the peasants should enter war, considering they are in a weaker position, we can also give money for the people who are risking their lives to protect Egypt as a soldiers.

I do think you are doing great at building great pyramids and many other things. But i am concerned about our military technology. I fear that if we were to be invaded, (which is very likely) we would not do well because all the other kingdoms like the Hyksos kingdom have better technology. I am not writing this letter to tell you that you are not doing a good job, because you are, but i am writing this letter because i am worried about the future of our great kingdom, Egypt. i hope you read this letter and save the future Egypt.

You are doing well-fighting wars and expanding the territory of Egypt. Because of that, I can live in a large, peaceful, and wealthy Empire. However, you are not thinking about farmers. There was a drought this year which made crops not grow well. Even the crops didn't grow well I needed to pay taxes and my and other farmers' life is getting harder. If this keep happens all of the farmers' life will get harder, leading to Empire Collapse. I don't want to keep a pharaoh who has indifference about farmers and doesn't know anything about farmers and forcing to pay taxes even we are suffering from droughts.

I am writing you this letter to tell you what's going on here. First of all, I appreciate how you are fighting and trying to expand our territory. But, one of my concerns is that you have less care towards us, farmers. There was a drought which caused us, farmers having a hard time with our crops. For Egypt to succeed, you need more care for us, farmers, and definitely expanding our territory.

I am one of your farmers, who is going to give you a suggestion about how to rule better than now. First, I think you should declare peace to the invaders first, the citizen near the invaders are having a harsh time living. Second, you might care about the citizens in Egypt more than the war.  The problem that we, Farmers, are having is that there is a deadly drought that its hard for farmers to farm and others to buy food. For these reasons I strongly think that you should change or we can get a new pharaoh.
One of your citizens, Rosa.

Hello, I'm one of your farmers, that you might don't know. I'm writing this letter to stand up for my farmer peers and explain what's going on over here. Because of the natural disasters, we're having some issues like crop failures that affects some trade issues . But first of all, thank you for your huge bravery fights for the territory expands. Including me and my farmer peers, we thought that we need more help from you. If this problem continues, it will cause some huge failures that we don't want. That's why we really want to have a new pharaoh if the problem continues.

I am writing letter because I have concerns for our society. I really appreciate your hard work on expanding our territory, but I think you should care for us a little bit more. You are too focused on wars that you don't get to hear our problems. Recently, we are having difficulty because of the drought. I hope you read this letter and fix the problem soon.

I am farmer Nathan I'm very grateful that you are working very hard to make a success to our country by winning the war. However, I'm writing this letter because I want to say that farming is been harder by the droughts. It's very complicated for the farmer who works growing crops. I'm grateful and have respect for you. However the job of the Pharaoh I think you the great king have to solve these problems quick it is because many farmers like me are having difficulty because of the drought. I want to say that you should fix the problem and help your citizens like you.

Hello, I am one of the farmers working here in your country. I speak up to you for all of the farmers who are suffering.
First of all, I want to tell you about how we, including myself, are thanking you for keeping us safe. I heard that you are working to fight against other countries around. 
But, you, as the leader of our country, should know that our lives are becoming hard. So we think that you should listen to us too and solve our problem as the pharaoh, the god of our country. Droughts are happening often, and it stops us from being able to farm. I think you should care more about all of your people-we can help you win the war and survive. Even though our job might sound poor and insignificant, but we make all of what you eat, so you should think about us and ways to help us first before looking for ways to expand your country. 
Second, we are all thinking that you are collecting way too much taxes. While we can't earn any money with farming, the government is continuing to come over to collect taxes. I feel that the tax fee is increasing and we are paying the amount the scribes should pay, and the money mostly is just used to give payment to your workers and to make architects. 
Thanks, and please consider changing some things to help us.

So do not get angry. to us and understand us by your big mind. Also, we think that we are the people who are growing crops, but we are giving too much taxes which makes us harder life.

Greetings. I am Jake, a farmer in the Great land of Egypt. I am writing to inform you about the current situation in Egypt and also to express my thoughts about it.
First and foremost, I would like to express my eternal gratitude and respect for all the things that you have done for our great nation. I hear that you are working on expanding our territory which I believe to be an absolutely splendid idea. With you as our leader, there has been great developments to our country and I feel no fear as to what may come in the future.
However, I have one concern. Recently, there has been a drought which is making our harvests suffer. It has been a while since we have reached our target volume and thus, I would like to humbly request your supervision on this situation as a decline in crops would ultimately mean that our citizens would have less food to eat; consequently, causing our nation to become weaker and a decline in morale.

Yours sincerely,

Hello I'm the one of the farmer living in Egypt. First I appreciate that you hardly fighting in war for keeping our Kingdom Safety. But the whole reason why I'm writing this letter is because I think you should care about us. We need more crops to not starve to die. Also, we are giving too much taxes. It keep makes our life more tired. Again thanks for keeping our Kingdom more Safety.

I’m one of your farmer, Regina. I just wanted to say that you’re doing great on expanding our lands and fighting for us. You’ve been doing well on keeping our Kingdom safe and I wanted to compliment you on that. However,  I want to tell you that farmers and slaves are being treated poorly, we have to pay higher taxes because of the pyramids you own and I think it is unfair for scribes to not pay taxes while we do. I know it may be hard for you because pyramids are one thing our kingdom is famous for but still, I think treating citizens equally is one of pharaoh’s responsibilities. I hope you understand and be a better pharaoh, Thank you

I assure, you the Pharaoh is working so hard to help and support weak people like me as you expand your land of Egypt. You are doing excellent on fighting other states and making our state's honor in the top point, making other states never look over you. However, it is hard to pay so much tax as a farmer with unpredictable times of weather, leading differs in incomes, which disadvantages to pay the taxes that will shin you more. Also, as we are paying lots of taxes for your amazing pyramid, I am afraid that I could not pay those taxes for the shine of Egypt and your highness. It would make other citizens happier and believe in you much more if you show your generosity in many parts like decreasing tax, increasing farmlands for free so farmers can pay you more, or maybe gifting us a small thing after big construction support or taxing towards it if the structure is created successfully. I know it is a big responsibility in your hands, but I believe your highness, the Pharoah will do the best choice to make Egypt the best for everyone and all of Egypt wants your highness as the infinite ruler of this state.

Hello, I am Jun, a farmer in your nation. First of all, I want to thank you for the great development of trade between other parts of the world that made us access to variety of other resources that have not been found in the land of Egypt. Further more,I really appreciate your sacrafise of wars and your hard work to protect our nation, by fighting against the invaders, not just giving up and let the invaders take our territory. Also, not even that, I appreciate your work by you looking forward to continually expanding the land, while you have all the protection of land that the nation needs. However, I just have one thing that I am worried about. It is that, in our part of the land, the rain now are poor, that made us have a drought presently, and because of that, we are cutting low on food for our family memebers. So, I am concerned that you have a poor backups when we suffer the drought. There fore, I just want to suggest few things to you that best Can you help us. I understand why you are requiring us harsh taxation because to take a good care of the tombs and the pyramids. However, even though I understand that, because of the cruel taxation, it is hard for farmers like us who doesn't have lots of money are hard to make our lvings. regardless of how, reducing the taxes from now on could really help us make our livings.

I'm grateful that we are expanding the land but the drought has brought famine. We are running low on food and supplies. So far it has been manageable, but it's getting worse. Our crops have been all dying and we have nothing but emergency food left to eat. It has made us poor. I do understand that you need the taxes from us and that you are fighting off the intruders and having a hard time, but I don't think we can this handle more. We don't have much more money to pay the taxes, and the nobles are starting to take over power again. From what I could tell, I think you should focus a little bit more on us farmers and the situation the kingdom is in. You could "re-organize" our society and make it a much better, safer, balanced one. Most of all, a place where we farmers and other people be happier. I'm sending this message for you to handle this situation. We are desperate for your help and we know you will. Thank you.

From,
Farmer Siwool]]> 2021-12-11 05:24:29 UTC https://padlet.com/timcushing/cten1halj5ikx1ar/wish/1941435744 Jennifer (Yellow) https://padlet.com/timcushing/cten1halj5ikx1ar/wish/1941595387 Your highness.

Unfortunately, there are some problems in our country these days, so I dare to post a letter to your Majesty. At first, it seems that your Majesty has neglected the welfare management of the people these days. I dare to say this, but the people seem to have become more dissatisfied with the government these days. It is also for the people to expand their territory by war, but now I think it is first to listen to their voices. For example, it seems that people are struggling with too much tax these days. Also when you were fighting at the wars, Nobles are coveting your power. There are also people who are struggling with too many wars and people who have nothing to eat. Please take a closer look at these people and take care of them. 

Other than these points, you are doing very well. Thanks to your diplomacy with other countries these days, imports and exports are going smoothly, which has a great impact on commerce. Also, thanks to your hard fight with our enemies, I'm glad that Egypt has taken a step closer to the title of an advanced country.

As a Noble, I should have looked closely at the lives of the people, but I feel heavy because I feel like I'm recognizing it too late and posting a letter to your Majesty. Although we are inexperienced, Please continue your pharaoh life and run the country well with me.

From. Noble Jennifer

Hello, how are you doing? I hope you are well. I don't think you will really care but I and doing somewhat fine. Or other days really bad. Other slaves and I have been working really hard almost 24/7. I know that we are in the lowest level but we think we should have less work and more freedom. We clean the house, help others fix things and more. I think the people who live in there own house can clean their own messes. We have no right to clean up what messes others have made. Even with a little bit more help from wealthy people, it will change our whole life. I think I am asking for a lot of help but I would appreciate if you gave us more food and money. Thank you very much and have a good rest of you day!

Hello, I am Chloe one of your farmer. I want to say that you are working really hard to keep the Kingdom organize while your are having a wars. However, my family is having a hard time because the land is dry so we can't grow any crops which means that we don't have enough money. But, you took taxes from us when we don't have enough money. So we are getting poor. Please don't try to take so much taxes from us.

Hi how are you doing! I heard that you are busy these days. To introduce myself, I am a poor and a hardworking farmer in your land. I wrote this to discuss with you about something.I think you are doing a great job of taking care of the citizens such as keeping the Kingdom clean and making the citizens safe from war. But there is a problem that is not getting fixed as fast as we thought and wish if you can help it. It is about the flood and the droughts that are come in different times and weathers. We farmers are certainly afraid because we lost our crops when last time the floods came. If we don't have crops and food our kingdom can't survive and eat fresh food. So, please solve this conflict as fast as you could and listen to farmers.

Sincerely, hardworking farmer Claire.  ]]> 2021-12-12 12:39:07 UTC https://padlet.com/timcushing/cten1halj5ikx1ar/wish/1942610181 Farmer Jacob https://padlet.com/timcushing/cten1halj5ikx1ar/wish/1942610995 Dear Pharaoh,

Hello, it's an honor to meet you. It's really a huge pleasure to write a letter to your majesty. I know it's really rude and impolite for me, the slave to write you such a disrespectful letter to you, the pharaoh. However, we, the slaves, aren't quite satisfied with our life, here, in Egypt. 
Firstly, we think that it's somewhat unfair to live for us, slaves. The society we're living in isn't that equal or fair. We work enthusiastically and all we earn is another awful work waiting for us. We think that it's an unfair society. For example, we are starving all day and struggling, and no one, not a single person tries to help us. Would you help us as a leader of this country?
Us slaves have a dreadful life each day after day. We work as hard as we can, and nobles are occupying all the powers instead of steady-working slaves! I really appreciate all the work you've been doing for us and it's wonderful, but maybe you can think a little more about this social hierarchy in this society. It is a wonderful life for wealthy and rich peoples like nobles, but it's really horrifying for us. I'm really sorry for all these dissatisfying words about your society, but no offense! I'm just pleasing you to think once more as if you were a slave. 
On the other hand, I really like how you rule the country with strengths and powers against the other countries/enemies and being a strong, brave country. I am really pleased with all the trading you're doing with other countries, which is making our country have new cultures and new objects we didn't get to meet, and I think it's super. I really like all the magnificent works you've done and it's amazing! Even though we're having a little hard time, we slaves, are proud of Egypt and all your hard work! Thank you so much and have a great day!
Thank you and Best Regards,

Hello, I am a farmer living in Egypt. It's an honor to send you letters like this. I know that you are struggling and having varieties of problems with wars with other countries, but for us, we can't farm peacefully because of the fight, and I think you are not giving attention to any of us. I'm suffering in this painful world, because you are buying more weapons for wars, and the money comes from taxes, which means that you will get a lot of taxes form us. I have 1 thing that you can accomplish for me. You can start take caring of small lands in Egypt, and you can trade with other countries to prevent war with each other. With that, you will start to hear problems that are occuring at Egypt, and I know that you are a wise pharaoh that will hear to our problems.
