Ramses II was one of the most prominent and remembered rulers of Ancient Egypt. Under his command, elements such as economy, administration, culture or the army flourished and reached the most prestigious level. He was born in the year 1303 before Christ. His parents were Seti I and Queen Tui; his grandfather was Pharaoh Ramses I. During his childhood he lived in Luxor with his brothers. There he was educated to be the future heir besides teaching such as astronomy, mathematics, geometry and even religion.
When he was 10 years old he was appointed heir to the throne as well as commander in chief of the army. When he reached the age of 16 he continued his political education thanks to the approach to Seti I. He began to participate in campaigns of war and one of his greatest hobbies was born, the construction of buildings, thanks to the supervision of the constructions of Abydos.
Ramses II began his reign with the transfer of the capital from Thebes to Tanis, in the delta, in order to place the royal residence near the point of greatest danger to the empire, the border with Asia. The first of his military campaigns was to subdue Palestine, in order to obtain a base of operations that would allow him to invade Syria, as his father had done with dubious success
To its reign it corresponds, according to maintain some historians, the first "exodus" of the Jews. Ramses II the Great had, on the other hand, a strange destiny: his existence was so long that he survived many of his descendants, among them his favorite son Khaem-uaset, reputed magician and high priest of Ptah. Apparently, he died almost centennial; his mummy, discovered in 1881, is in fact that of an old man, with an elongated face and a prominent nose. He was undoubtedly the last great pharaoh, since his successors, Merenpta and Ramses III, were forced to carry a defensive policy to maintain sovereignty in Palestine; later, the internal decadence would end with the power of Egypt beyond its borders.
