He became Pharaoh of Egypt around 1878 B.C. and focused his reign on strengthening and expanding the kingdom. He led campaigns into Nubia, establishing fortresses and bringing the region of Kush under Egyptian control, securing the southern frontier and access to vital resources. A visionary builder, he launched major construction projects, including temples, fortifications, and a canal to improve trade and communication. His rule upheld the ideals of Ma’at, promoting order, harmony, and divine authority.

  Senusret III, Pharaoh of ancient egypt.<br><br>-Beat back the nubians and expanded the egyptian borders south, extending dominion over the lands of Kush.<br>-Built a canal through the nile&apos;s first cataract, connecting the lands south of it to the fluvial trade of egypt.<br>-Reformed his country&apos;s law enforcement and social system, putting his focus on strengthening the country&apos;s economy and industry, leading to the greatest period of prosperity of ancient egypt.<br>-With this prosperity, he started many construction projects throughout his lands : multiple fortresses along the southern part of the nile to protect the newly expanded borders, water canals and irrigation of towns as well as many temples (most of which dedicated to Maat, the goddess of law and justice).<br>-Left the reins of power to his son willingly and spent the last years of his reign passing everything he could to him in a &quot;co-regency&quot; before dying after ruling for 39 years.<br>-Left such a mark he was worshipped throughout all of Egypt with offerings and songs for 3 centuries after his passing.<br><br>If any pharaoh deserves the title &quot;most underrated pharaoh of egypt&quot;, it&apos;s him. Man was an absolute legend.

  Using the actual Hymns to Senusret III as reference for lyrics is absolutely big brain move. Great job Sabaton! 🦾😎

  I like the fact that the Song is about a Pharao that is not as well known by the main Stream as Ramses II or Tutanchamun

  I know some archeologist professor who is teaching in university. He ordered me to give him headphones to listen to this song. Then he smiled. Asked why i didnt tell him about this song earlier. Then he took out 1800 pic of manuscript which talked about this ruler.
