The ancient Egyptians once founded an empire that covered half of Europe and half of Africa! They had an Army.
The Egyptian empire started around 6000 BC and ended 1000 BC. It lasted 5000 years. It was followed by Assyrian, Babylonian, Persian, Greek and Roman empires. The Roman empire started around 600 BC and ended around 600 AD. It lasted about 1000 years.
The original Egyptians who founded Egypt in 6000 BC were black Africans who spoke a language called Isankiri and these people named Egypt Nile Isan. Around 4000 BC a new people called Kwuchi or Kush came from Asia and settled in upper Egypt. Around 2000 BC a new people called Maori or Moor came from Asia and settled in lower Egypt. After these came Assyrians, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Arabs and Turks to Egypt. The Kwuchi or Kush named Egypt Kemet. The Persians named it misraim. And the Greeks named it Egypt. As a result of all these migrations the language of Egypt changed from Isankiri to Aramaic, then to Persian, Greek, Latin Roma, Coptic and Arabic.
