Pharaohs ruled over ancient Egypt. they ruled, made laws, and basicly dominated over the Egyptian population. they were sort of like presidents today, but had much more power in that they can make laws or ban something without anyones consult. So, they were like an emperor. The Egyptian population also could not vote for a pharaoh, because the future pharaoh would be the son of the current pharaoh.
An Egyptian Pharoah did not earn a salary. In early Egyptian culture the Pharaoes were considered to be gods (with this changing to messengers for the gods in later eras) and the people (nobility) were expected to submit regular gifts to appease them. This was especially true upon the death of the Pharaoh, when all were expected to offer gifts of 'unparalleled magnitude' to ease the passage of the Pharaoh into the place of the gods.
A pharaoh could make the laws of ancient Egypt and many times did make them. However he was under an overall restriction, so to speak, because the Egyptian outlook on life was one of continuity. A new law could not be too radical or the priests would get upset as their idea of the gods could not be changed. The Pharaoh Akhenaten tried it, but his reforms, both religious and civil lasted only as long as he did.

being a pharaoh was tough because they are thought of as gods so if they make a mistake, the whole country makes a mistake! and if you were someone like tutankhamun (who was pharaoh at age 8) or Ptolemy (at age 12) who had to decide something for a whole country! poor them

Once the pharaoh died he/she would be put to rest in that same pyramid for his/her life
they had to make sure the sun came up
