why did the egyptian empire fall?

Answer 1

it depends on whether you're referring to Arab Egypt or Ancient Egypt (now called Pharaonic Egypt)...

Ancient Egypt fell to the Persian Empire in 525 BC, and then to one of the greatest conquerers to ever live, Alexander the Great. After Alexander's death, when a general asked him who should rule he supposedly answered, "the strongest...". His general Ptolemy assumed control of Egypt and named himself pharaoh, but this is not part of the Pharaonic period, instead this is called the Ptolemaic period.

Arab Egypt was conquered by the Ottoman Empire in 1517, after the Mameluks, essentially the Arab equivalent of the Roman Praetorians (the Praetorians were infamous for selling the title of emperor to the highest bidder through assassinations and various other means), seized power for themselves from the Ayyubid Dynasty began by Saladin.
