The history of Egypt should be broken. Among the four ancient civilizations, only China is continuous and continues to this day. Ancient Egypt predated China, but it no longer exists. In 3200 BC, a unified slave country appeared, and the king was called Pharaoh. Conquered by Persians in 525 BC, it became a province of the Persian Empire. Some historians believe that in the history of human civilization, the definition of "historical era" is calculated from the time when characters were produced, and the previous period is called "prehistoric era". In the history of China, there were legends such as "Fuxi created gossip" and "Cang Xie invented writing" in the era of the Yellow Emperor, but none of them were recorded. Modern archaeology found tortoise bone symbols engraved with words in Oracle Bone Inscriptions of Shang Dynasty more than 3350 years ago (1.350 years ago), and tortoise bone symbols engraved with words were found in Wen Tao about 4000-5000 years ago, about 5000-7000 years ago.

Simply put, Egypt is not as old as China, but ancient Egypt is earlier than China. Dig more carefully. How do you define "history" and from what angle? At present, the historical source is still inconclusive. It is difficult to find the source of a big river.

If we distinguish the history of China from political and social forms, according to archaeological data, the Central Plains changed from matriarchal clan society to paternal clan society in the late Peiligang culture or the early Yangshao culture about 6,000 years ago.
