Becoming pharaoh of ancient Egypt.

    You probably think I just jumped straight into being pharaoh, but that did not happen. I first served as a regent (kind of like a guardian) for Thutmose the third. I wasn't very satisfied with not having much power, and I did not think Thutmose should have had so much power at such a young age, so I crowned myself pharaoh. I had the help of becoming pharaoh by having the god Amun and the priests full support. When I became pharaoh many were not pleased with having a female rule over them, so I tried to portray a male pharaoh by dressing up like them. I would wear the traditional fake beard, wear the same garments as the male pharaohs, and I would have myself painted looking like a male. I also had to try hard to show everyone who was in charge because many would not listen to a female, so I showed Egypt what I was capable of by building the Deir el-Bahri one of the greatest monuments Egypt had ever seen.
