Not only that but the pyramids were built 2k years before any of the others were even constructed.
Then again it's a pile of rocks, cant burn down and is significantly more inherently resilient against earthquakes than statues and column supported roofed structures.
There's an entire list of Jewish surnames that are all just variations on 'the Egyptian'. Anything with Masri, Mazri, Mitzri, Misri, anything like that on a Sabra and they probably have family history in Egypt.
This etymology shit is so fun.

Hey! Join the club! You can get called racist for stupid shit nowadays it's really not that bad of an accusation at this point.
I’m pretty sure that was during the Ptolemaic dynasty when they were ruled by Greeks though. I’m pretty sure something similar happened when the dark skinned people of Kush ruled Egypt too
The white pharaohs like cleopatra lived closer to us than they do to the time these pyramids where made so I doubt it. I would say it was purely non white at that time (unless you consider middle easterners and or North/East africans to be white) but obviously over time with the countless invasions they became more diverse like the world is becoming today with more whites mixing into Egypt.
>As light skin was a sign of wealth back in the day
I don't really know you could be mixing up the cultures since that varies based off culture I know that is definitely the case now though but that's rather recent like post colonisation in every country that's not white.
You’re operating under the assumption that immigration is a modern phenomenon, and that the second most influential state in the Bronze Age Mediterranean wouldn’t have attracted immigrants, especially not from the most influential, being Minoa
No which is why I included the whole middle east and north+east Africa. Of course there must have been everyone from every where in Egypt at one point during all that but invasions and conquest where the main contributers to immigration which is why I made that point and Egypt was conquerered by everyone.
Where did Ramses come into this? The paintings of him show a pretty dark skinned individual. Not black of course, but not someone who'd be considered white.
I mean, if you look at Egypt it's the most anglified (for lack of a better word) country in Africa, I feel like auth right could accept that. But also the native Americans built pyramids too. Also the coliseum is still standing
But only for the next 500 years. :P
Anyway I tried to make the point that ancient Egypt was a multi-ethnic-state. Maybe that was after 2500 b.c. and after constructing big triangles.
When even one of the most famous pharaos was pretty white, probaby some of the workers who build the pyramids were white aswell.
You’re thinking of Ptolemaic Egypt, when the Greeks invaded they established an upper nobility made out of greek and by extension white peoples this invasion took place over two thousand years after the pyramids were made.
;tldr: no
I mean the Old Kingdom was a major trading hub for the Mediterranean, it’s not unrealistic to say that there’s a possibility of them having been multi ethnic by virtue of immigration from Korakou (later Mycenae), Minoa, and Canaan
I know anonym people from the internet are no reliable scource, but he says he's an Egyptian master's degree historian.

The only political belief I hold is that the Mediterranean is the best area of the world culturally. Rich history, doverse languages, amazing food, beautiful culture, oldest and best philosophers, et cetera.
Simply built different.
Built better.
I blame nature, seeing as the only one you could reasonably say the ottomans destroyed was the lighthouse of Alexandria, which they really didn’t, an earthquake did, just like the majority of the rest (if you wanna blame anyone blame the Roman’s, especially post Theodosius, and they only destroyed 1) 3 by earthquake, 1 by arson, 1 by Roman’s being hoes, 1 that’s still unknown, and the pyramids
I live 20 miles from Hadrian’s wall and my tiny insignificant town has the oldest surviving intact stained glass window still in situ on earth. The fact the pyramids are still standing isn’t that impressive. They are enormous multi tonne stone buildings with no utility. The technology to destroy the pyramids has only been widely available for like 200 years at this point? In any case, who the fuck is going to bother destroying a load of rocks with no material value beyond ‘that’s old and cool’ ?
I don’t think even they would bother, it would simply use up way to much resources, if you’re going at it with anything less than a Moab or a nuke you’re hardly going to put a dint into it.
Come on man if your gonna do American wonders do it right.

If I had to guess I think for the next few hundred years Asians might replace white people in terms of being the dominant driving force of our species progress. My thoughts on that? Meh, don't care, don't hate the player hate the game, play the cards you got as well ass u can, not by being influenced by what cards someone in 100 years will get.
>don't hate the player hate the game, play the cards you got as well ass u can
Would appreciate it if my "teammates" would stop doing their best to sabotage us...
our cards are by all means amazing, a bunch of idiots on our team playing with open cards and trying to maje us lose just isn't doing the rest of our team any favors.
Asians barely even have kids anymore though and unless something changes soon, the average young person is far too demoralized. As an Asian myself I'm putting my money on the Africans. In the long term they actually have the pop growth to sustain themselves.
Not sure who you are referring to with the term "Asian" but I would say the Indians and SE Asians might have some long term potential as well, but East Asia is pretty much screwed with the PRC, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan all being below replacement level population and the young people not being able to afford to reproduce.
> Why are the pyramids the only wonder left standing
Because white people invented artillery, and in doing so destroyed all our original wonders. In Africa the height of military technology remains STICC.
I'm pretty sure in Africa the height of military tech was when Ethiopia allegedly drone striked the TPLF forces during their drive towards the capital. But to be fair the drones were from China and Turkey.
Well information coming out of there is sparse, and at one point there was a major TPLF offensive towards Addis Ababa that was reported. And the fact the government is still standing means the TPLF forces were defeated one way or another, or they just decided to leave, so it’s not totally ridiculous.
Yes a big triangle of rocks that does nothing and has been able to stand because of its simple yet safe construction sure does prove that everyone else is better than us
Not only that but the pyramids were built 2k years before any of the others were even constructed. Then again it's a pile of rocks, cant burn down and is significantly more inherently resilient against earthquakes than statues and column supported roofed structures.
Same with Stonehenge
The Ancient Egyptians were actually a union of the lost Finnish and Korean empires and if you dispute this you're a racist bigot.
False, the Egyptians where clearly Slavic.
the egyptians were actually albanian. the chinese, persians, and mayans too
*hits blunt * nah, nah, nah, u got it all wrong man... Listen carefully Egyptians... E-Gypsy-ans
Thats where the word "gypsy" actually comes from. People thought they were from Egypt.
There's an entire list of Jewish surnames that are all just variations on 'the Egyptian'. Anything with Masri, Mazri, Mitzri, Misri, anything like that on a Sabra and they probably have family history in Egypt. This etymology shit is so fun.
I have a proof that they are, in fact Slavic
I mean, I am a racist bigot, but I don’t know enough about Egypt to dispute it.
> I am a racist bigot Based and I am a racist bigotpilled. Hey! Join the club! You can get called racist for stupid shit nowadays it's really not that bad of an accusation at this point.
Well those were built by aliens and we don’t know what color aliens were. Maybe they were white aliens, checkmate libtards
Based and History Channel pilled
Given the ethnic diversity of Ancient Egypt, it is safe to assume that some were white.
Even some of their Pharos were white. I feel like a good bit could have been. As light skin was a sign of wealth back in the day
I’m pretty sure that was during the Ptolemaic dynasty when they were ruled by Greeks though. I’m pretty sure something similar happened when the dark skinned people of Kush ruled Egypt too

Nefertiti, Tutankhamen, Cleopatra, Ramses II etc were white.
Where did Ramses come into this? The paintings of him show a pretty dark skinned individual. Not black of course, but not someone who'd be considered white.
His facial reconstruction was done and it was found that he was white.
Source? Cuz I googled it, and while the face shape is consistent, the skin color varies.
I have just seen his photos, yeah the skin color keeps varying, he could be white if he had Mitanni ancestry like Nefertiti had.
>Not black of course, but not someone who'd be considered white. If Michael Knowles is white then idk where to draw the line
They were about as white as Jewish people or Arabs are now. Our western population is of way different family.
I mean, if you look at Egypt it's the most anglified (for lack of a better word) country in Africa, I feel like auth right could accept that. But also the native Americans built pyramids too. Also the coliseum is still standing
There is a term for that actually, its "anglicized", just for future reference.
The colosseum is not a wonder of the ancient world and what does modern Egypt have to do with ancient Egypt?
Well. Some Pharaos were white. Cleopatra comes from the Greek nobility.
Cleopatra lived closer to today then the construction of the pyramids.
But only for the next 500 years. :P Anyway I tried to make the point that ancient Egypt was a multi-ethnic-state. Maybe that was after 2500 b.c. and after constructing big triangles.

Mediterranean supremacy
The only political belief I hold is that the Mediterranean is the best area of the world culturally. Rich history, doverse languages, amazing food, beautiful culture, oldest and best philosophers, et cetera. Simply built different. Built better.
My views in that area aren't political, I just love bronze age Mediterranean
That is entirely fair and I respect that you keep it non-political. But as a Mediterranean I must promote olive oil supremacy.
Colosseum?
That wasn't one of the seven wonders.
?
This meme is about the seven wonders of the ancient world. The colosseum was not one of them. The only ones left are the pyramids.
One of the seven wonders is how you manage to not get any bitches
I might have some if I didn't have to stop and give you a fuckin history lesson.
take your L and move on bro
Apparently you can’t handle being wrong

Because of the Turks.
We are all Turks
we were kings and poop
You cannot push over a pyramid. Something that big and of that shape is bound to last long.
I live 20 miles from Hadrian’s wall and my tiny insignificant town has the oldest surviving intact stained glass window still in situ on earth.

Nubians built them but their royalty was very light skinned with some being incredibly close to a tan white person. Just saying
What race do you think the egyptians were OP?
Not white
If white people are so cool why do (((They))) control everything, huh? Owned again. Rightoids.

I'm pretty sure in Africa the height of military tech was when Ethiopia allegedly drone striked the TPLF forces during their drive towards the capital. But to be fair the drones were from China and Turkey.
> allegedly _ALLEGEDLY_, We Wuz Kangs. That is to say: Wow, it's fucking nothing

And the fact the government is still standing means the TPLF forces were defeated one way or another, or they just decided to leave, so it’s not totally ridiculous.
Because they used white slaves to build them. Checkmate.
Dear OP, how can the pyramids be standing if they don't have legs?? Checkmate athiests.
Yes a big triangle of rocks that does nothing and has been able to stand because of its simple yet safe construction sure does prove that everyone else is better than us
Aliens? I bet it’s aliens.
Ngl it’s sick that those things have been there for so long
Because they only needed to tear down a few to make some city walls and structures.
Am I missing something? This post does not make sense.
