Amenhotep III was called the “Napoleon of Egypt” because of his success as a military commander. He is also remembered for destroying all reference to his predecessor, Hatshupset, the queen regent who usurped his throne when his father died, and ruled in her own name as Pharoah.

Well, he must not have been completely successful, since you’ve heard of her!

That would be Thutmose the third. Amenhotep the third was later.
