Egypt has finally met their first neighbor, Babylon, to their east on the landmass to the east. The Babylonians called their leader Gilgamesh, and were quite vain. Instead of accepting Egypt as an equal, they expected Egypt to serve them, and asked how they could assist them.
Ramesses assured there would be peace, and tried to sign open borders with Babylon, only to find that they did not trust us enough yet. Geez. Tough crowd.
Spoiler :

The very next turn, a new civilization in the land to the north had started. They called themselves the Greek, and welcomed Egypt as equals and upstarts. Very contradictory to the fact that the Egyptian civilization started earlier, but whatever.
Pericles, leader of the Greek League, trusted Egypt enough to open borders between the two nations for trade. This was good, as Egypt now finally had someone to trade goods with, and that boosted the happiness of the citizens.

As Egyptian researchers fully learned how to work with bronze, the Egyptian empire left the period of stone tools, and entered the bronze age. With this new ability to work with bronze and copper, Egypt could improve the life of their people by allowing them to do things they could not do before.
Also, Thebes's cultural reach now extended into the Red Sea, as it was called by the Babylonians. Not far enough to reach to the resource of clams, but it was a start.
Thebes had also finished their obelisk, and started to work on their first wonder, the Stonehenge.
Spoiler :

As the reign of Gilgamesh ended, a new Babylonian leader, Hammurabi, was elected. Hammurabi, knowing the years of peace Babylon shared with Egypt, decided to open borders with Egypt. This was great, as Egyptian traders could now move anywhere and trade with all of their known neighbors.
Also, Egyptian researches created a form of writing, so that information can be passed between others. Of course, that meant people would have to learn to read, but there is no need for us to worry about that. The new writing form was called cuneiform, and was taught to scribes and people all across the nation.

Also, the exploring warriors of Egypt that were exploring the landmass which tribes had started to call "Africa" were ambushed by two prides of panthers. The warriors, being as highly trained as they are, easily took down both prides.
Egyptian workers also finished the pasture to tame these horses, and could now build war chariots. The next project they had in mind was to move north, and build a road and quarry to take advantage of the marble they had noticed to the north. This marble would allow art to be made, or at least they assumed it would.
Spoiler :

Later on, a religion called "Judaism" had spread to Thebes. The teachings of Judaism was a belief of a divine God, and Ramesses decided to adopt Judaism as their state religion.
The people for some reason did not like giving up their pagan beliefs. Ramesses did assure them once the riots settled down that the old gods would still be there, it's just a state religion so they can have a friendly welcome from Jewish nations.
With new buildings and trade agreements, Egypt was developing fast. Ramesses was proud of his work, and sat back for the night.
SC Decision!

Now that we have trade agreements with Greece and Babylon, and units and wonders to speak of, we must decide on what to do next.
1) Build cottages on the floodplains of the Nile, and boost our economy so we can go back to 100% in science
2) Finish the worker in Giza, and the archer in Thebes, and then train a settler, so we can settle to the south
3) Finish the archer in Thebes, and then build a Jewish monastery so we can build Jewish missionaries to spread Judaism to Giza. After that, build a barracks in both Giza and Thebes
