Answer 1

Answer: 3.The pharaoh taxed all goods made in Egypt and controlled what was made or purchased

Explanation:

The Pharaohs of ancient Egypt were absolute monarchs who were all powerful and so controlled many aspects of Egyptian society including trade and manufacturing.

The Pharaoh was the one to organize trade missions to other lands, tax goods made in Egypt as well as control what could be made or purchased. Farming especially was controlled by the Pharaohs who would then redistribute the harvest to the people based on multiple factors such as rank and status.
