This story assumes that Hatshepsut is the Pharaoh's Daughter that saved Moses, adopted him and then educated him as an Egyptian. Egypt had been isolated by the vastness of the desert and allowed to prosper for thousands of years. In time foreign invaders, called "Hyksos", would cross the desert and conquer the Delta area in Lower Egypt. For 150 years of "chaos" the nation was divided. Fierce "Warrior Kings" who were Hatshepsut's ancestors in Upper Egypt defeated the vile Hyksos and reunited Lower and Upper Egypt. This time period of a united Upper and Lower Egypt is called the 18th Dynasty. Hatshepsut's father was the 3rd such warrior king in this dynasty. In this era, Egypt's reached its zenith in history. Egypt expanded its borders and produced great monuments. The pyramids are 1000 years old and Hatshepsut wants to continue Egypt's great growth.
