Similarities
Religion- Both Ancient Greece and Egypt had a number of gods they worshipped!.
Greek mythology consists of stories belonging to the Ancient Greeks concerning their gods and heroes, the nature of the world and the origins and significance of their religious practices!. The main Greek gods were the twelve Olympians, Zeus, his wife Hera, Poseidon, Ares, Hermes, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Demeter, and Hestia and the greeks built the parthenon to worship thier gods in as so did the egyptians!.
Egyptian Beliefs in the divine and in the afterlife were ingrained in ancient Egyptian civilization from its inception; pharaonic rule was based on the divine right of kings!. The Egyptian pantheon was populated by gods who had supernatural powers and were called on for help or protection!. However, the gods were not always viewed as benevolent, and Egyptians believed they had to be appeased with offerings and prayers!. The structure of this pantheon changed continually as new deities were promoted in the hierarchy, but priests made no effort to organize the diverse and sometimes conflicting creation myths and stories into a coherent system
Differences- Education For most of Greek history, education was private, except in Sparta!. During the Hellenistic period, some city-states established public schools!. Only wealthy families could afford a teacher!. Boys learned how to read, write and quote literature!. They also learned to sing and play one musical instrument and were trained as athletes for military service!. They studied not for a job, but to become an effective citizen!. Girls also learned to read, write and do simple arithmetic so they could manage the household!. They almost never received education after childhood!.

Boys went to school at the age of seven, or went to the barracks, if they lived in Sparta!. The three types of teachings were: grammatistes for arithmetic, kitharistes for music and dancing, and Paedotribae for sports!.

Boys from wealthy families attending the private school lessons were taken care by a paidagogos, a household slave selected for this task who accompanied the boy during the day!. Classes were held in teachers' private houses and included reading, writing, mathematics, singing, and playing of the lyre and flute!. When the boy became 12 years old the schooling started to include sports as wrestling, running, and throwing discus and javelin!. In Athens some older youths attended academy for the finer disciplines such as culture, sciences, music, and the arts!. The schooling ended at the age of 18, followed by military training in the army usually for one or two years!.[8]

A small number of boys continued their education after childhood, as in the Spartan agoge!. A crucial part of a wealthy teenager's education was a mentorship with an elder, which in few places and times may have included pederastic love!. The teenager learned by watching his mentor talking about politics in the agora, helping him perform his public duties, exercising with him in the gymnasium and attending symposia with him!. The richest students continued their education by studying with famous teachers!. Some of Athens' greatest such schools included the Lyceum (the so-called Peripatetic school founded by Aristotle of Stageira) and the Platonic Academy (founded by Plato of Athens)!. The education system of the wealthy ancient Greeks is also called Paideia!.

Ancient Egyptian education involved mostly mathmatics!.
Egyptian multiplication and division employed the method of doubling and halving (respectively) a known number to approach the solution!. The method of false position may not have been used for division and algebra problems!. Scribes may have only used Old Kingdom binary numbers, and Middle Kingdom unit fractions, written within RMP 2/n table answers!. Scribes like Ahmes solved complex mathematical problems, 84 of which are outlined in the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus (RMP), one of which included arithmetic progressions!.

The traditional Old Kingdom scholars report that Egyptians confined themselves to applications of practical arithmetic with problems additively addressing how a number of loaves can be divided equally between a number of men!. Problems in the Moscow and Rhind Mathematical Papyri expressed instructional views!. Three views cover abstract definitions of number, and higher forms of arithmetic!. Abstract definitions are found in the Akhmim Wooden Tablet, the Egyptian Mathematical Leather Roll and the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus!. Abstract arithmetic was used to scale hekat, and other weights and measures units!. The hekat included Eye of Horus quotients and Egyptian fraction remainders, scaled to ro, 1/320 of a hekat, or other sub-units!. Five hekat two-part statements are defined in the Akhmim Wooden Tablet, and applied 30 times in the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus, and many additional times in other Middle Kingdom texts, such as the Ebers Papyrus, a medical text

one promblem both Egypt and Greece suffered from was the Poloponnesian war!.
