Status Updates From Ramesses the Great: Egypt's...

I would never be able to keep up with "Throne names". Also the idea of ruling at the age of 20 seems a little much for me 😅.

I never gave it much thought about who they chose to be successors if they didn't have an heir. I had no clue they chose military advisors or military personnel to be the next in line. Also the fact if you lived to be 40-50 was a miracle really does show you how high the mortality rates were then.

You're not kidding about him getting booty. This man had almost 100 kids. You never really think about the mortality rates from that time until you realize a reign of 66 years was considered a lot.
