The Story Of The Trio Obelisks Of Egypt Called Cleopatra Needle

If it were possible for the Pyramids to be shipped to Europe and America, we would not have a chance to see the pyramids our Ancestors built in the Black land of the Nile today.
The Obelisks are three magnificent monuments constructed by the then-people of Kemet over 1200 years ago. These monuments were later called Cleopatra Needle, a name said to have been given to it since the three Obelisks were found in a temple built by Cleopatra.
Centuries after the Kemet had fought many wars against three most common enemies, the kingdom of Macedonia now Greece, the Persians, now Iran, and the Barbarians, now Iraq, to retain their might, the people of Kemet, which constitute majorly of the Barbers, the Kush and the Nubians were weakened which led to the defeat first by Alexander the great from Greece who later named Kemet Egypt.
Centuries after the death of Alexander, the Egyptians still held to their ways and culture up until about 330Bc after series of wars by the Persians against Egypt, the Persians finally defeated Egyptians during the Pelusium war, a war which was decided by Cats as Persians strategically used Cats as the baits after they discovered it’s an animal peculiarly sacred to the Egyptians. This brought an end to the Egyptian dynasty, legacy and culture, as the Persians destroyed almost all of the Egyptian history and heritage.
Fast forward to the originally story of the Obelisks, the three Obelisks which were originally located in Alexander, a place named after Alexander the great, was relocated to Cleopatra’s temple and named after her in honor of Julius Ceaser. Prior to 19th century, the British and French were in power tussle as to who will take control of Egypt which was now in the hands of Persians, British invaded, and ruled over Egypt.
In the 19th century, between 1800 and 1900, Britain, France and United States of America, secured and shipped all three Obelisks to their respective countries. However, these three Obelisks were reported to have been given to all three countries as a gift from the then Arab ruler of Egypt Muhammad Ali Pasha.
