The UK, the Ottoman Empire and even Cairo (founded 7th Century CE) have about as much to with Ancient Egypt as does my cat. In fact, probably less. The final third of the quiz is purely mythological rather than historical. It’s Ramesses - you need to edit your answers and type-ins.

Having said all that, the more ancient history on here the better as far as I’m concerned - keep up the good work!
