"While capitalism and imperialism have been closely linked in the minds
of many, the truth is that the two systems are at odds with one another.
Where one system flourishes, the other cannot. Many negative things,
such as political corruption, the exploitation of the poor, and mass
famines, have been blamed on capitalism, but that blame is misplaced.
Real capitalism should work to improve circumstances for the poor by
voluntary exchange, but imperialism hurts the poor by political or
military domination that enables countries or government-backed
businesses to profit at others’ expense."-Learn liberty
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.
