The win condition is a victory by the combined forces of Antony and Cleopatra. However, the game does revisit alternate history, as the very last mission in the game is the Battle of Actium. From then on, every Pharaoh is historical. The Cleopatra expansion quietly retcons the notion of a single dynasty holding Egypt for half a millennium, and the first mission has you building a tomb - the very first tomb - in the Valley of the Kings for Thutmose I, Ahmose's grandson from the historical Eighteenth Dynasty.At that point, the player's dynasty takes control of the throne of Egypt and holds it for the rest of the game, into what our history records as the Eighteenth Dynasty the last missions you play in the vanilla game are clearly intended to represent the exploits of Ahmose I, who reigned in the mid-sixteenth century BC. The game is more-or-less historical from the era of the Naqada culture and Thinite confederacy prior to 3000 BC until approximately 2000 BC, and the beginning of the Twelfth Dynasty.Almighty Janitor: The Pharaoh will entrust the building of his new capital and eternal resting to a mere Royal Architect - simply because you (and your descendants) are just that good at city building.

Added Alliterative Appeal: 'To the marsh we march, for the reed we need.'.

Labor is taken from the workforce as a whole - shut down an industry and all those previously working there will be employed elsewhere, regardless of the nature of employment.

Buildings are built instantly, but they can't actually produce anything until they have workers and materials.

In our history, Itjtawy was founded by Amenemhat I, the first Pharaoh of the Twelfth Dynasty, who did indeed usurp the throne.

After you become Pharaoh (for the Itjtawy mission) you have this as everyone thinks you stole the title from the previous Pharaoh after his death.
