What empire defeated the Egyptian empire?

The Civilization that defeated Egypt, was the Persian Empire or also known as the Achaemenid Empire. The Persian Empire defeated the Egyptians while Cyrus The Greats Son (Cambyses II) was reigning over the Empire. The Egyptians didn't even bother to try and stop the Persian Empire as they we sick of their previous ruler. So I think the answer you are looking for is the Achaemenid Empire. Although they did capture Egypt, after the Persian Empire finished, all of the empire broke up into lots of different countries, as this was when the Persian Empire Fell.Hopefully This Helped.
