In summary, other countries are in a more unfortunate situation

In other contemporary civilizational regions, the numerous city-states of the Mesopotamian basin were characterized by a citizen-soldier mentality, engaging in continuous warfare, with countless instances of city sieges and destruction, leading to a constant turnover of the resident populations, with no day of peace; ancient Indian civilization first faced years of flooding followed by invasions from the Aryans, barely sustaining itself for several centuries, ultimately culminating in genocide and the collapse of civilization, regressing into primitive tribes; the Minoan civilization on the island of Crete, situated at sea, perhaps had easier access to various fresh seafood than the Egyptians, but external warfare was equally frequent, with countless lives lost each year during maritime expeditions; ultimately, it was further devastated by volcanic eruptions and tsunamis, leaving not a trace behind

As for the Xia and Shang Dynasties of China, not only was their level of civilization the most backward among the major civilizations of that era (i.e., the four great ancient civilizations mentioned in textbooks), lacking grand architectural structures, but even the Shang kings lived in thatched houses. In terms of humanitarianism, it can only be described as disastrous—according to oracle bone inscriptions, the famous Queen Fu Hao slaughtered tens of thousands of prisoners of war during one of her triumphs to offer sacrifices to the deities, while the entire population of China at that time was less than 4 million, truly comparable to the later Aztecs of Central America. Although the Egyptians occasionally practiced human sacrifice, they generally only killed a few individuals for each ritual, making the probability of a time traveler becoming a sacrificial victim upon arrival significantly lower.

Note: At that time, the level of brick and tile production among the Shang Dynasty people was not very advanced, and the construction engineering technology was also quite backward. Although the columns and walls could be made quite grand, the roofs could only be thatched, at most mixed with tiles at the edges. It was not until the Western Zhou period that pure tiled houses were still very rare in China

Despite the aforementioned shortcomings, it must be said that the life of the ancient Egyptians was relatively comfortable during their time, as depicted in the Book of the Dead.

----------------------------------------

However, even in ancient Egypt, where living conditions were the most comfortable, daily life was still so overwhelming, and the living conditions in other places can only be imagined... Ladies, please remember that novels are romantic, but reality is harsh. Do not be deceived by romantic ballads like "Love in the Year Before Christ" and recklessly embark on this irreversible journey through ancient Middle Eastern civilizations!

Relatively speaking, ancient Egypt was quite stable, with few periods of turmoil. Before being conquered by the Persian Empire, during the 2,500 years of independent inheritance of Egyptian civilization, it experienced only one foreign conquest (by the Hyksos) and two major internal conflicts (the two "Intermediate Periods"). Additionally, the annually flooding Nile River provided the Egyptians with fertile land and stable grain harvests, resulting in significantly fewer natural disasters compared to other regions
