Egypt used to be a huge empire and Pharaohs were deemed Gods with divine rights over everybody. What would be needed for Egypt to become relevant again and to return to its old might? Does Egypt stand a chance for glory in this upcoming century?

Massive conversion to Catholicism

Egypt worked off the king owning literally everything except what the priests had (according to the Bible this was Joseph’s doing) and being treated like a deity that people had to worship. Their advantage in resources was due to the Nile which is just not relevant anymore
>>
>>17428332
Could they maybe expand and occupy neighboring territories to acquire what they are lacking? Or is it more ideological?
>>
>>17428342
Are you twelve? They have an extremely corrupt and shit government that remains in power solely because America gives them a shitload of military aid so they can purge protesters or dissidents
>>
Sure, all Egypt has to do is confront the dichotomy that all modern Muslim nations face, which is how to build a functioning modern society using a Muslim, Arabized population without infinite oil money.
Apparently it's borderline impossible. But 116 million people live there, their current leader man doesn't appear to be a huge piece of shit yet. And they are in a strategically valuable location with a potential for world class tourism.

It’s normal because every shit government there is propped up by America or Russia, and those they don’t back, they pulverize

Okay, but with solar aesthetics

Yeah that's tough I wonder what would happen if one of these countries didn't need propping up anymore
I feel like I was talking about that a little bit ago but now I'm arguing with a fat kid

LMAO. Some of Nubia and a bit of the Levant the latter of which they kept fighting over. What are you smoking OP? Egypt is overrated due to the hype around it during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

What Egypt lacks is arable land and a populace that is capable of living in the 21st-century. So, no. They're not smart enough to figure out what to do with what they've got. Today, as in the ancient world, the average Egyptian (of which there are far too many) has a diet consisting of 80% grain. Unlike in the ancient world, this food is almost entirely imported.

In a lot of ways Egypt is already at what the ancient world had, they just don't have the massive bureaucracy and noble caste with Aryan DNA pumped in from milennia of importing warriors from all across Europe and giving them Egyptian women and letting their bastards have cushy pencil-pusher jobs as payment. That and, y'know, hicks in the US with a tractor are exponentially more productive at agriculture than Afro-Asiatics can ever hope to be.

They race mixed their white ruling class into brown soup, there is no coming back from that for any nation. Many such cases, sadly.

Believe it or not, Egytpian revivalism is really popular with the country's elites. Unfortunately, there's also a massive class of militant goat fuckers who want to drag the country back into the stone age in the name of Allah.

Isn't Egyptian revivalism a huge thing among the ruling class of the state? I remember the pharaoh parade and that was as pagan as it could get, surprised no judeo-christian or muslim threw a tantrum over that
>>
>>17428307
Egypt was founded by white aryans so you would have to replace the entire elites with whites.

>>17431173
>surprised no judeo-christian or muslim threw a tantrum over that
Because its a dead religion. They'd scream and shit themselves if people still worshiped the egyptian gods.

>What would be needed for Egypt to become relevant again and to return to its old might?
Egypt was mighty because relative to other nascent states, they were able to firmly control their agrarian population. That was cause the people all had to live along the Nile River, which could be easily patrolled by the Pharaoh's troops. The kingdom further dominated the farmers by controlling the distribution of grain for planting after the harvest, as well as centralizing control of irrigation. There was nowhere else for farmers to go, the Nile was the only way in or out of Egypt, and it was surrounded on either side by desert, there were no other major agricultural sites anywhere near them.

So the only real threat to Egypt was external. Egypt was conquered a few times by such invaders, who simply formed a new dynasty and ruled the Nile in much the same way. All the wealth of Egypt was concentrated into that one fertile strip along the desert.
>>
>>17431223
So its impossible then?
>>
>>17431254
Yeah, I can't really see how dominating a single river's agricultural output is relevant in the modern world. The Nile might've been a super highway of commerce in the bronze age but these days it's a backwater.

The most important factors in creating a successful 21st century society are functioning institutions and human capital. Egypt (and much of the world) has neither. A country can have all the natural resources in the world and tens (or even hundreds) of millions of people to work them but if the government is corrupt/inept and the people still mentally live with a mindset of an agrarian/artisan society then you will always end up with a failed state

>>17428330
>Massive conversion to Catholicism
No christcuck country has ever been good (unless they appropriated paganism through humanism), meanwhile pagan civs have always been peak.

the last good ruler of Egypt was a dictator that didn't hesitate to kill people who acted like thirdies, used to be lone women could walk the clean streets without worry during his reign because anyone caught even so much as copping a feel got executed. my mother says they even had streets of marble and gold and no one dared steal or make throw trash on them.

>>17435258
It would have to be an ethnically Egyptian fascistic leader that engages in religious repression for there to be a revival of Pharaohs and their pagan religion. Or there would have to be an insane domestic commercial boom on anti-Islam criticism in arts and media that center worship of old gods as a source of national pride.

Functionally, the Egyptian government could never allow that because the military is predominately Muslim, surrounding Arab nations would cripple their trade, and there would be constant civil war from muslim extremist groups.
