During the time of the Middle Kingdom and the New Kingdom, why did Egypt conquer most of Kush?

Respuesta :

Because this country was rich with natural resources.

Explanation:

  • The first developed societies in Nubia were created before the Second Egyptian Dynasty (3100-2890 BC).
  • Around 2500 BC, the Egyptians began to spread south, and from that period we have most of the data on Kush.
  • This breakthrough stopped the decline of the Middle Kingdom, and at that time an independent kingdom developed in Nubia. Around 1500 BC. Egyptian breakthroughs began again, but this time they were met by organized resistance.
  • Historians dispute whether resistance came from more independent city-states or from a unified empire, as well as whether the Nubians created the idea of the state themselves or copied it from the Egyptians. Eventually the Egyptians conquered, and the Nubia area became an Egyptian colony under the control of Thutmose I, whose army built a series of strong fortresses.
  • The Nubia area has since supplied Egypt with various resources.
