 With the rebellion in Palestine broken and Egyptian dominance restored, Thutmose the Third ignited a fire that would consume all who dared defy the kingdom of the Nile. This was the first step in a reign that would see Egypt’s power surge beyond all that had come before. Under Thutmose’s unyielding leadership, Egypt’s armies swept across the known world, carving out an empire that stretched from the sun-scorched deserts of Nubia in the south to the lands of Syria and the upper Euphrates in the north. Never before had Egypt’s borders reached so far, its name so feared, or its might so absolute. The horizon itself seemed to bend under the weight of Egyptian conquest, as Thutmose transformed his kingdom into the single greatest empire of its time.
