Superior Essays
Was Nubia better than Egypt? Did they acell or equal the awesomeness (or the power, strengths and success) of Egypt.

Although the Egyptians didn’t chose their leaders in the best way it was better than Nubia’s. Also, the Ethiopians made awesome temples, but the don’t even compare to the pyramids. Another thing is, that the Nubian civilian lived in poverty while the king sat up there in wealth. The normal everyday people are believed to have had to eaten grass!!! The everyday egyptian wasn’t treated like that. Even the very few slaves they had weren’t treated that bad. Scholars believed that Nubia controlled Egypt for some time.
