The Great Pyramid complex is a group of pyramid builds located in the Cactus County region. It was made by DawnDreamer01 (aka Mother Dawn), based on the real-life Giza pyramid complex in Egypt.
Geography
The complex is mostly situated in the deserts of Cactus County region; some of its edge areas host plains, savanna, and dark forest biomes. The complex is neighbored by Osiria, Parkbench, and Seijin Taz (part of Equos Empire) to the west, an unnamed small pyramid (with adjacent buildings) to the north, as well as Venezia Nuova's commonwealth areas, Eoghan and Oisin, each to the northeast and southeast.
Structures
There are five built pyramids within the complex: the Great Pyramid of Giza, Pyramid of Khafre, and three subsidiary pyramids of queens.

Three subsidiary pyramids
There are three smaller pyramids east of the Great Pyramid of Giza. Among the three, the only pyramid with an entrance and an information wall is the northernmost pyramid, labeled as "The Queen's Pyramid (G1a)". The complete text on the G1a information wall is as follows:
- The Queen's Pyramid (G1a) 1 of 3 // Was originally built for Queen Meritetes but... // It is now considered to be the secondary // burial of Queen Hetapheres I // Constructed in the Fourth Dynasty // The base measures at 49.5 Meters (162 ft) // The height measures at 30.25 meters (99.2 ft) // Composed of yellow limestone core encased in Tura limestone
The G1a entrance is located on its northern side; past the entrance, there is a midpoint with signs describing Queen Meritetes and her family:
- Queen Meritetes is thought to be who this pyramid was originally // built for. She was considered to be the lesser wife of Sneferu and // the wife of Khufu. She was either the mother or stepmother // of Queen Hetpheres II // Disclaimer: The royal family relations are very tangled.
Past the midpoint is an alleyway that eventually leads to a small burial chamber. There is no sarchopagus in the chamber; instead, there are jars, framed items, and lines of signs around the chamber's floors and walls. The signs read, clockwise:
