Final answer:

Akhenaten wanted the people of Egypt to worship exclusively Aten, an aspect of the sun god, Ra.

Step-by-step explanation:

Akhenaten, the pharaoh of Egypt, wanted the people of Egypt to worship exclusively Aten, an aspect of the sun god, Ra. He believed that Aten was the only god and tried to establish a monotheistic religion centered around the worship of Aten. This religious revolution included changing his own name to Akhenaten and moving the capital to a new city, as well as removing references to other gods from buildings and walls.
