7. Both Ramses the II and Queen Hatshepsut left a lasting legacy in Ancient Egypt, but who was the better leader? Differentiate between their leadership qualities.

In my opinion queen Hatshepsut was a better leader, mostly because during her reign she has focused on preserving the peace, establishment of good trade connection and building a lot of roads and temples. On the other side, while Rameses II was a great conqueror and also built a large number of temples, but he was also know as a brutal ruler.

Explanation:

Hatshepsut was a pharaoh from the 18th Dynasty, mostly known because of her focus on spreading trade and building great temples. She has established good links with Punt, with whom Egyptians traded a lot. Rameses is mostly known for his war with Hittites, and battle of Kadesh, after which a peace treaty was signed that enabled Egypt to flourish.
