Never before or after the authority and resources of rulers have been so limitless! The pyramids could only be built during the fourth dynasty. Thanks, I hope you will use some fragments of my videos one day 🤩✌❣

[WanaxTV]

No doubt the most extravagant dynasty of Egypt! Great video, keep them coming!

[General_Rubenski]

You know what, I don't even mind a reupload. Your videos are so well done that I swear I learn something I didn't catch on the first view.

Good job on making these series. Although the internet has quite a lot of material on Egypt, most of it seems riddled with various kinds of poorly founded speculation, veering off into the outright insane at times. One gets enough of that sort of thing fairly rapidly.

Thank you, Cy for posting these dynasties of Egypt. They are easy to follow

Cy + Egypt = happiness

I watched the first version and I'll watch this one again. After all, it's the dynasty with the big pyramids.

I can barely wait for Akhenaten's shenanigans. Or Ramses super long reign. Or bearded Hatshepsut. Bet they'll get exclusive videos since there's so much to talk about them.

This is actually a pleasant suprise! The bit about pyramid builders being slaves was the only thing that bothered me in the previous video, actually, and I didn't even comment about it

Dynasties 0 to 4 seem to be connected to each other by blood more than anything. All tense and purposes, All the dynasties at this point could be classified as 1 big dynasty if reorganized under modern classifications. Just the fact that Snefru and Huni are father and son and are part of two different dynasties proves this that these Egyptian dynasties need to be reorganized.

Another great video!Greetings from Brazil.

Waiting the video about the dynasties during the first intermediate period.

It was a time of famine of chaos, very apocalyptic (the Akkadian empire was destroyed around the same time).

Great reason to reupload, thanks for correcting that.

[anthonydarwolf]

I can't wait for the 18th dynasty

[chrisborjas]

Great series, I've really enjoyed it.

[tjwarburton]

This was fun! Too short, but fun. Thanks for another video.

[volodymyrcuza]

Great thanks for the beautiful and very interesting video!

[coreywilliams]

May your dynasty reign for a thousand years

[massimosquecco]

Great lecture, very accurate in describing the current knowledge of these fantastic times. Besides, you gave no space for the nagging polemics related to the incredible constructions the IV dynasty left to us, even though many of them are truly on something. In itself, this is a remarkable enterprise! So you deserve a: -Bravo!- from me. Thank you for your efforts in the documentation and the publication of your strictly edited video. You are a natural-born professor, in my opinion at least.
