The religion of ancient Egypt was a complex system of polytheistic beliefs and rituals that were an integral part of ancient Egyptian society. It focused on the interaction of the Egyptians with various deities who believed in control of the forces and elements of nature. The practices of the Egyptian religion were efforts to provide for the gods and win their favor. Formal religious practice focused on the pharaoh, king of Egypt, who was believed to possess divine power by virtue of his position. He was considered a god and was obliged to support the gods through rituals and offerings to maintain universal order. The State dedicated a large amount of resources for rituals and the construction of temples.
Religion in Ancient Egypt was not created for the reason of making a pharaoh look to the eyes of those as a god. But, religion did make the people think the pharaoh was a god.
