The Egyptians were one of the first groups to be brought to Oceana, arriving in 800 BCE. They were a small contingent of about 1,000 people from all classes of ancient Egyptian society. They found a land that was obviously not Earth, but not all that different a climate than ancient Egypt. The land was fertile and easily irrigated just like back on Earth.
They founded a city shortly after settling on Oceana. The city was named Oleiteopolis, after the Pharaoh had a vision of the God Oleite. They proceded to explore their island. and build a civilization very similar to what they left on Earth.
The Egyptians quickly left their old gods behind and adopted the Oceana gods within the first 15 years of being on Oceana. The first person to have a vision was a direct relative of the Phararoh on Earth. He was already the leader of the new born kingdom, but his vision and ability to heal obvious injuries cemented his position. He immediately declared himself the son of Oleite (god of the sun, weather, storms and rain) and Tadatei (goddess of healing, health and good fortune).
Magic, of the clerical sort, quickly took off in Egypt. Arcane magic took much longer to develop.
The Egyptians had a very large island, relative to Oceana, to explore and settle. The Egyptians were not ocean explorers, and never put any energy into exploration beyond their island until after they were contacted by the Greeks in 340 BCE. The lack of exploration was also in part related to the lack of visiable land from even the mountains of Egypt. The Egyptians had no indication that there was land within sailing distance. The Egyptians instead put all their energy into expanding on their island. The Egyptians have a well developed road network to permit the Pharoh and his court to manage the country. .
The Egyptians re-created the political setup of their home land. The Pharaoh was the leader of both Egyptian religion and the government. The quick introduction to the gods of Oceana and clerical magic cemented the Pharaoh's position. The Egyptian government has been extremely stable for millennia. The Pharaoh was initially the eldest son. This faltered after only a few centuries when the Pharaoh's wife had no sons, but two sons by harem concubines vied for the throne and threw the country into a brief civil war.
After the Egyptian Civil War the choice of the Pharoah was changed. Now the Pharaoh choses his heir as soon as he sires a son, by wife or concubine. He may change the heir at any time before his death though. The Pharaoh's oldest living son by the wife is normally still the next Pharaoh, or if there is no legitimate son, the oldest son by a concubine from the harem. Once the old Pharaoh dies, the other sons, both by the wife or concubines, are imprisoned until
The Egyptians settled in a very fertile area of Oceana, with a good growing season and easy irrigation from the Nile River. Large families were common, leading to a rapid growth of their civilization. After the invasion of the Goblins and Hobgoblins, this high birth rate was needed to wage the war.
The Goblins and Hobgoblins were encountered by the Egyptians in 340 BCE. That was 360 years after they had arrived on Oceana. During the those years, the Egyptians had not encountered a single intelligent creature or magical monster. The presence of the Goblins and Hobgoblins was a huge shock to the Egptians. They had no significant defenses against external enemies, although there was a significant army spread around the country to suppress any uprisings.
Egypt is a land of giant farms worked by a combination of slaves and peasants. the land is officially owned by the Pharaoh, but is administered by nobles or the priestly caste. Egyptian priests can have a free skill in farm management (not farming). Wealth is only acceptable if it's backed up by land ownership, or rather land rights since the Phaaroah owns all the land.
