I will assume you are referring to a slave in ancient Egypt, because apart from the normal hardships of all life in an era where invention was limited, slaves had it worse than any.
The life of a slave in ancient Egypt was one of constant manual labor, using only muscle and rudimentary tools and techniques, to accomplish a goal.
Slaves, while not allowed to work as craftsmen, were among the finest stonecutters, carpenters, and masons of the period. The works they created speak volumes even today. The great pryamid. The sphinx. The amazing tombs and temples. All around today because of the craftsmen who were slaves.

Ok you need to so some more studying. I'm not saying your totally wrong but let me expound on a few things. To start off Romes Arches are one of the Greatest achievements ever, if not for their arches buildings like the coliseum would collapse under their weight. These along with columns, domes and vaulted ceilings became some of the defining characteristics of the Roman architectural style. What about Roman roads and highways? At its height, the Roman empire encompassed nearly 1.7 million square miles and included most of southern Europe. To ensure effective administration of this sprawling domain, the Romans built the most sophisticated system of roads the ancient world had ever seen. Then there's Roman concrete. Many ancient Roman structures like the Pantheon, the Colosseum and the Roman Forum are still standing today thanks to the development of Roman cement and concrete. Now there are quite a bit more accomplishments that were reached by Rome but one that I love the most and is

I won't elaborate because you can easily reference these using key phrases. Egypt faced challenges of religion (with the Christians during the days of the crusades), they also faced a divided dynasty due to infidelity and sex scandles. Good luck! Hope this helps!

uh idk but i know for sure that the first person is wrong...the nile was actually very predictable in its flooding, much more so than the Tigris or Euphrates rivers...however even a few feet difference in flood levels could cause egypt to starve...another problem was that they were surrounded by desert, so trade was nearly impossible, and also the desert made it so they could only inhabit a small area of land

The lack of water if you strayed to far from the river. The flooding of the river sometimes became very unpredictable, drought, disease, building the pyramids and other monumental feats
