Answer:

Ancient Egypt began with the first king, Narmer, in approximately 3100 BCE, and ended with the death of Cleopatra VII in 30 BCE.

Explanation:

Egyptian civilization came together around 3 100 BC with the political unification of Upper and Lower Egypt, under the first pharaoh (Narmer), and developed over the next three millennia. It developed historically in three great kingdoms marked by political stability, economic prosperity and artistic flourishing, separated by periods of relative instability known as Intermediate Periods. It reached its peak in the New Kingdom (ca. 1550–1069 BC), a cosmopolitan era in which, thanks to the military campaigns of Pharaoh Tutemés III, Egypt dominated an area stretching from Nubia, between the fourth and fifth Nile falls, up to the Euphrates River, having entered a slow decline after that. Egypt was dominated by a succession of foreign powers in this final period. The government of the pharaohs officially ended in 30 B.C., when Egypt fell under the rule of the Roman Empire and became a province, after the defeat of Cleopatra (r. 51–30 B.C.) at the Battle of Alexandria.
