    Obligatory joke:

    Why are the Pyramids in Egypt?
    Because they are too big to fit in the British Museum

      The Pyramids are too big to come to Britain, so Britain came to Egypt.

      Fun fact: people were convinced the pyramids were silos, and the Egyptians filled them from the top.

        Look up “pyramid power”. These crazy people thought the pyramid shape preserved stuff with a special “pyramid energy”.

        Because pyramids preserved mummies … so … science.
