From a cultural point of view, Chinese culture is multi-ethnic, and Chinese culture is composed of multi-ethnic groups in the long-term development and integration, while the culture of Egypt is single, but both have a long cultural history. From an architectural point of view, most of the architectural culture in China is made of wood, while the Egyptian one uses stone to make buildings. In terms of power and leaders, the power of the Pharaoh is limited to secular power, while divine power is in the hands of the priestly class. At the same time, the powers of Pharaoh and his ministers are relative, not absolute. China, on the other hand, is not quite the same. There is no special priestly class in China, and the so-called theocracy is only one of the many powers of emperors.
1.In Egypt,the individual is subordinate to the family or collective.Loyalty and family pride take precedence over all social relationships.

In Egypt there is an enormous gap between the very whealthy and the very poor, which is similar in India, but it's pretty different from the situation in China because the nation works very hard to narrow the gap.
