What Egypt was like in real life though, I don`t know.
Some says that Egypt is historically inaccurate(or something like that), how would you like Egypt to be in RTW?
You probably knows more about Egypt than any other person at these forums!
Well, the Egypt in RTW is egypt under the Ptolematic era, and it was more or less a greek state, the royal family where greeks, the architecture greek, cultural ideals greek... etc, etc.

The classical egyptian nation ceased to exist when Alexander the Great conquered Egypt, although the decline had already been going on for some time.

And I think the main reason people don't really like playing the Egyptians (or Ptolemys as they are known in some patches and mods) is because they aren't that interesting or funny. And they have far to much civil unrest.
