C. Art and architecture glorified Egyptian royalty and gods to reflect their importance in society.

The aim of Egyptian art and architecture was to reflect the grandeur of the empire and its rulers. While the working class was being demoted and exploited in the construction of these structures, the nobles were honored, as were the gods, demonstrating their importance.
