My model is a Drakkar/Dragon Viking Ship. It was created in the Medieval times in 8th and 11th centuries A.D. There are three prime types of Viking Ship, the longship, knarr, and karv. The one I am building is a longship which is a war ship. I choose the Drakkar Viking Ship because it looks cool and simple. The scale of the viking ship is one inch is equal to six feet.

Ramses had a harsh and profound life, yet he was able to accomplish, build, and expand so many ideas across Egypt and even into today. Ramses II made most decisions based on his involvement whether that was war, politics, or ruling. Egypt had to rely on Ramses II to be Pharaoh when his father died.
