Nectanebo II

**Nectanebo II** ruled in 360–342 BC. He was the third and last pharaoh of the Thirtieth Dynasty of Egypt, and the last native ruler of ancient Egypt.

Under Nectanebo II, Egypt prospered. During his reign, the Egyptian artists developed a style on the reliefs of the Ptolemaic Kingdom. Nectanebo II started the enormous Egyptian temple of Isis (the Iseum).

For several years, Nectanebo II was successful in keeping Egypt safe from the Achaemenid Empire. However, he was betrayed by a former servant, Mentor of Rhodes.  Nectanebo II was finally defeated by combined Persian and Greek forces in the Battle of Pelusium (343 BC). The Persians occupied Memphis and then seized the rest of Egypt. They took the country into the Achaemenid Empire under Artaxerxes III. Nectanebo fled south and was influential for some time; his final fate is unknown.

Angelica Schuyler Church

**Angelica Schuyler Church** was an American woman from New York. She knew Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Franklin, the Marquis de Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson.

## Early life and family
Angelica was born in 1756.  She grew up in Albany, New York.  Her parents were Philip Schuyler and Catharine Van Rensselaer Schuyler.  Philip Schuyler had fought in the French and Indian War.  He went to the New York State Assembly and Continental Congress.  During the Revolutionary War, Philip Schuyler was a Major General in the Continental Army.

After the war, Philip Schuyler was a senator in the New York state government and then senator for New York in the United States government.

## Marriage and life in Europe
Angelica Schuyler married a British man called John Barker Church in 1777.  At the time, John Barker Church was using a false name, John Carter.

In 1783, Angelica Schuyler Church, her husband, and their four children moved from the United States to France.  John Barker Church was an envoy from the United States government to the government of France.  In Paris, Angelica Schuyler Church made friends with Benjamin Franklin, the Marquis de Lafayette, the Marquis de Tallyrand and Thomas Jefferson.

In 1785, the Churches moved to London, where Angelica Schuyler Church made friends with some people in the royal family.  John Barker Church became a member of Parliament.  They visited the United States twice.  They visited once in 1785.  They visited again in 1789 because Angelica Schuyler Church had been invited to George Washington's inauguration, the ceremony where he officially became the first President of the United States.

The Churches moved back to the United States in 1797.

## Legacy
John Barker Church had given supplies to the Americans during the Revolutionary War.  At the time, he told them they could pay him later.  Because the American government realized they could not pay him at all, they gave him land in New York State instead.  They gave him 100,000 acres on the Genesee River.  Angelica and John's son Philip Church designed and built a town there, Angelica, New York, named after his mother.

Angelica Schuyler Church died on March 13, 1814.

## In popular culture
Angelica is a character in the Broadway musical *Hamilton* by Lin-Manuel Miranda.  Miranda said he had to make changes so the story of the musical would make sense.  For example, in the musical, Angelica gets married after Elizabeth and Alexander Hamilton do, instead of before.

The office is having been occupied for a little more than 11 years out of the 73 years since its establisment.
