The history of ancient Egypt spans the period from the early prehistoric settlements of the northern Nile valley to the Roman conquest of Egypt in 30 BC. The Pharaonic period, when Egypt was ruled by a pharaoh, is dated from the 32^nd century BC, when Upper and Lower Egypt were unified, until the country fell under Macedonian rule in 332 BC.
