Twin Kingdoms

==Ruler of the Twin Kingdoms==
The designation Ruler of the Twin Kingdoms is an ancient title that was used by the Kings of Egypt. Egypt at one point in its history was divided geographically, Upper, and Lower Egypt. This was based on how the Nile flowed. Upper Egypt was closer to the Nile's source, while Lower Egypt is located and most associated with the Nile delta.
At one time or another Upper and Lower Egypt had its own line of Egyptian Kings. In time of Civil unrest or civil war, the two Kingdoms would split. The Upper Kingdom was represented with the White Crown (hedjet) and the Lower Kingdom the Red Crown (deshret), when combined you get the Double Crown (shmty).
The term Upper Kingdom is just another way of saying Upper Egypt, and Lower Kingdom is the same as Lower Egypt.
