The reign of Thutmose III was known for its economic prosperity and military power.
In his rule, Thutmose III regulated internal relations in Egypt, set the standards for the vizirs, who were local rulers, and for the official courts, reinforcing his image as a legitimate sovereign, eventually decided to destroy the Hatshepsut monuments after 15 years of disappearance of the queen. Perhaps this action by Thutmose III was an attempt to legitimize the future rule of his son Amenhotep II, and not allow other descendants to claim the throne. In external relations, however, the change was even more significant.
Researchers claim that Pharaoh Thutmose III conducted some military campaigns during Hatshepsut's reign, and spent a good deal of time preparing Egypt's land and naval forces for their own expeditions. He actually began his reign by attacking the king of Kadesh and his allies in a northern Mediterranean region. It conquered and fought in foreign territories in order to reestablish Egyptian rule. He conducted his own regiments, sending boats to the Palestinian coast to exploit it and facing armies as in the battle of Megiddo in Asia Minor.
Thutmose III was one of the greatest Egyptian generals in history, which leads some people to compare him with Napoleon Bonaparte, who led armies and led France to conquer other territories, consolidating an Empire in the first half of the nineteenth century. Thutmose III conquered lands from the Nile River to the Euphrates River and carried in its shadow Egyptian imperialism. The Egyptian hegemony that had consolidated with its successful military campaigns.
The decline of his empire occurred with his death at 55 years of age.
