1. The benefit of the Egyptian policy of hereditary rule can be seen in several things. One of the most important things is that the rulers are raised to rule since their birth. This includes the best education, learning of the way of ruling, what is good and what i bad. How to take care of the country and the people, as well as to make balance between their personal interests and the interests of the people, thus to keep everyone happy.

2. The problems with this type of rule come mainly because the rulers can not be changed by the people. Despite being prepared since birth about ruling, there's always the occasional ruler that will act like a tyrant, put the country and the people in terrible condition, but the people can not do anything about it. Also, because of the incest that was happening all the time, the chances that a ruler can have mental problems were high, and person with mental problems is not the best one to rule over millions of people and have a whole country in its hands.
