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.
