Compare and contrast the ancient Egyptian and Roman societies
user
The ancient Egyptian and Roman societies had many similarities but at the same time had their differences. Both societies had a highly structured social hierarchy and were considered some of the earliest civilizations. Both of them had strong religious conventions and elaborate structures built by a powerful elite. 

The primary difference between the two civilizations is their writing system. The Egyptians used hieroglyphics as their writing system while the Romans adopted the Latin alphabet. Additionally, Ancient Egypt focused primarily on river-based agriculture while the Romans embraced the engineering and construction of roads, walls and aqueducts. Moreover, Egyptians had an absolute monarchy while the Romans reached a republican system with the fall of the monarchy in 509 BC.
