The Muslim culture still practices inbreeding and has been doing so for longer than any Egyptian dynasty. This practice also predates the world’s oldest monarchy (the Danish) by 300 years.

The Moslems only date back to the 6/700s
the Egyptians were around at the time of Moses...
does this author mean the Arabs instead ???
The Muslim culture has been inbreeding for more total years than any Egyptian dynasty, which all failed and disappeared before Muslims came on the scene.
The problem with Muslim religion is they’ve taken this unfortunate feature of tribal culture and dialed it up to 11 by giving it the stamp of religious approval.
So any common sense calls to stop the practice are going to run into the brick wall of “Mohammed says”.
He's talking about individual Egyptian dynasties. The count incremented whenever they had a change in ruling family or a period of anarchy. Wikipedia lists 31 dynasties between 3100 BC and 332 BC.
I don't know whether there was any significant inbreeding in the common Egyptian populous as there was in the royalty.
