In Theory, Pharaoh did everything himself..

In Theory, a Pharaoh did everything himself -- from offering to the Gods, fixing prices, establishing Taxes and Treaties, conquering foreign lands, and upholding Ma'at by his words or deeds. A Pharaoh is a type of King or Monarch. Democracies however employ people by the millions. So Democracies find it strange that one person can wield so much power by himself as a Living Horus on the Throne.
In Practice, a Pharaoh's country assisted him in these endeavors. Scribes, Priests, Farmers, Soldiers, Accountants, etc. all helped him/her.
