The Kings of Nehekhara and the subservient Kings of the other cities ruled the land for about 1,500 years. Their kings ruled over great and magnificent cities, and Nehekhara went through periods of both prosperity and wealth. But the king of the greatest city, Settra of Khemri, desired immortality and ordered his priests to find and unlock the secret of eternal life. Huge buildings called pyramids were built to entomb the dead kings and queens so that they would one day awake in paradise. This obsession with death permeated their culture and drove Nehekhara to extremes. The Nehekharans worshipped a large pantheon of Gods, only a few of which are still remembered in modern times - the Nehekharan Gods. Nehekhara is based on and takes many influences from real world Ancient Egypt.
