During the 18th Dynasty many changes occurred in Egypt, specifically the New Kingdom.  This was the time of Egypt's most famous pharaohs.    Starting things off was Ahmose expelling the Hyksos, then Thutmose I conquered until Egypt's borders stretched from the bottom portion of the Levant to the First Cataract.  Queen Hatshepsut, who became Pharaoh, and Thutmose III made Egypt into a superpower.  Hatshepsut worked to expand Egypt's external trade while Thutmose III expanded the army.  Amenhotep III began an artistic revolution while Akhenaton and Nefertiti began a religious revolution with the concept of one god. Seri I restored many monuments but his son, Rameses II was the major figure of the New Kingdom.
