In your opinion, why might some ancient Egyptians have been unhappy about Akhenaten’s switch from polytheism (belief in more than one god/goddess) to monotheism (belief in only one god/goddess)?

Answer:

In Egyptian culture they believed in many gods. All these gods that they believed in controlled some aspect of their life like how Ra is the god of the sun in their culture, and Nun is the god of the sea. Now their whole culture has changed because someone is changing something that was normal to them.

I hope this helped!
