Ancient Egypt’s history is full of stories that tell about the many powerful leaders. Two such leaders are particularly noteworthy for their contribution to Egypt’s success. First, we have Queen Hatshepsut, who was a pharaoh for twenty-two years. She was the first woman to hold the title of Pharaoh in Egypt. Ramses II was also a successful leader. He reigned for 60+ years with many accomplishments. This essay will attempt to determine who the better Pharaoh was. To do so I looked at factors such
