Upper Egypt Pharaoh had a white crown. Lower Egypt had a red crown. When both the kingdoms united they united the crowns as well. Legend has it that the king of Upper Egypt led his named army Menes into Lower Egypt wearing the double crown in 3100BC. Other kings called Scorpion or Narmer lead the kingdoms together. There were two classes : Pharaohs and Farmers.
The king was at the top. Then came the Nobles and Priests. Merchants, Craftsmen, and scribes were next. Then came the unskilled workers. Then priors were captured at war. They were brought to Egyptians as slaves. IF they were born into a class they did not have to stay there they could move up or down on the scale of how hard they work. Women had more rights than men.
