Question 21 on The Castles of Eternity

            Before the constructions of the pyramids Egypt was made of of many smaller more segregated towns. Building the pyramids unified the country and gave the people a sense of pride and an international reputation. In modern times space travel is the equivalent of the pyramids. Space travel was a massive technological advancement that  brought the country together to strive for a common goal, which was much like the pyramids. Another example although not one about building, could be war. World war II especially unified our country as a whole and with other world powers in order to fight for a common purpose.
