Answer 1

The causes of the decline of the Old Kingdom include:

• gradual decrease in wealth due to large building projects.
• increasing desire for power among the pharaoh’s appointed government leaders.
• economic crisis brought on by famine.

Why did the Old Kingdom go into decline?

The OLD kingdom kept building lavish projects which ate into the nation's treasury and led to a decrease in wealth. This came at the time of a famine which reduced government revenue and led to an economic crisis.

The Pharoah's leaders were also becoming more corrupt as a result of them wanting more power for themselves.
