The Egyptian civilization was the most successful ancient civilization. They were the most successful because they built buildings that withstood the forces of nature for thousands of years without using machines or modern day technology.

One of those structures was the pyramid. The largest of those pyramids is the pyramid of King Khufu. There is over 2.3 million blocks in his pyramid and each block weighed 2 tons. The pyramid would have to stand-up to floods that would reach half the height of the pyramid. It took thousands of people to build the pyramids and each builder was well respected and was given a respectable grave once they had died. They were not slaves though,
