In the nation of Egypt, we are seeing a shocking return of the ancient Pharaohs! Egypt is currently building one of the most mind-blowing cities. They are reawakening their 7,000-year civilization, placing it right back at the heart of the world!
– Egypt’s Pharaoh’s Golden Parade showcases the nation’s ancient history and cultural heritage.
– President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi is leading Egypt’s transition, emphasizing its ancient roots and identity.
– Egyptian civilization is reasserting itself in a rising civilizationalist world, embracing Pharaonic symbols and rituals.
We saw a spectacular and astonishing event called the Pharaoh’s Golden Parade. The government of Egypt moved 22 mummies of kings and queens of Ancient Egypt’s New Kingdom from the Egyptian Museum to the recently established National Museum of Egyptian Civilization. It was an undeniably epic ceremony. The world watched, spellbound as special chariots carefully escorted the pharaohs to their new resting place.
What made this extravagant exhibition all the more astonishing was that it signaled the beginning of a new Egypt. This new civilizational Egypt is taking its place in an increasingly civilizationalist world. Recently, scholars have noticed something astonishing happening. We are seeing the great ancient civilizations of the past rising from the depths below and returning in all of their splendor. We are seeing this happening in Orthodox Russia, Confucian China, Hindu India, Shinto Japan, Ottoman Turkey, Continental Africanism, Shiite Persia, and what so many in the legacy media are freaking out over: MAGA.
And what we are seeing recently in Egypt is part of this astonishing civilizational trend. The Pharaohs’ Golden Parade symbolized the Egyptian government’s extraordinary cultural and historical turn. This turn largely rejects the secular liberal globalism that is so rapidly dying in the West. This transition hasn’t been easy. After General Abdel Nasser’s successful coup in the early 1950s, he tried to modernize and secularize Egypt as part of a larger project of pan-Arabism.
This project never really materialized. After decades of secularization and modernization, Egyptians turned to the Muslim Brotherhood in 2012 in a massive political turn to their largely Islamic identity. After yet another coup the following year, elections were held and the former minister of defense, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, was elected President. He has been President ever since. At that time, Sisi began rebuilding Egypt. This Egypt has a new, but also very ancient identity!
Among the several mega-building projects that President Sisi has commissioned, the most massive and ambitious involves moving Egypt’s capital city several miles east of Cairo. Though the costs of the new city have been rather prohibitive, the vision is breathtaking. At the center of this new city will stand what is called the Obilisco Capitale,designed in the form of a Pharaonic obelisk. It promises to stand at a height of over 1 thousand meters, or 3,300 feet making it the tallest building in the world.
The city will feature several artificial lakes, about 2,000 educational institutions, a technology and innovation park, a 90,000-seat stadium, 40,000 hotel rooms, and a major theme park four times the size of Disneyland. It is slated to house over a thousand mosques and churches, including the 2nd biggest mosque in the world and the biggest church in the Middle East. However, according to many commentators, what this massive building project ultimately represents is the redefinition of Egyptian national identity by this rising civilizationalist world.
Sisi has deliberately positioned Egyptian identity as uniquely the oldest civilization in the world with 7,000 years of recorded history and powerful symbols of Pharaonic grandeur and governance. Even the formidable Egyptian military is reportedly employing more and more pharaonic rituals in their military ceremonies. Egyptian hieroglyphics are being introduced into public school curricula. In a very real way, the Pharaohs have returned to Egypt, and with them, so has Egypt’s unique civilization, taking its unique place in a rising and returning civilizationalist world.
