All Total War Pharaoah Campaign Map & Playable Areas

Total War: Pharaoah playable areas are Egypt, Canaan, and Anatolia from the Bronze Age period. Reddit user Ganossa shared a full campaign map where the starting position depends on what faction you choose:

As you can see, you'll be forced to deal with those territories in the middle of the map sooner or later. They are choking points with immense strategic importance. But investing too much in those areas will make you weak in other places. Using the water path to avoid land is one of the potential dangers. Having allies to have your back is one way to avoid being attacked from behind.
