Pharaohs of the Sun

Art, technology, and new ideas enhance the wealth of the new empire, and diplomacy and military conquest ensure a firm grip on power. However, sun-worshiping pharaohs such as the royal couple Akhenaten and Nefertiti, and the inexperienced boy-king Tutankhamen, take the empire into uncharted waters.
