Kang the Conqueror, also known as Nathaniel Richards, is a famous and powerful villain in Marvel Comics. He is so powerful that he can travel to any timeline without hesitation. Kang has so many variants of himself, and all of them are in different timelines.
But do you know what Kang's origin is? Let us provide you with the details.
Kang the Conqueror's Origin
Kang lived in the 30th century on Earth-6311 when people used to know him by the name of Nathaniel Richards. The earth was so advanced that their people had many technologies to get things they wanted. That is the reason Earth-6311, where Kang lives, is always at war.
After getting bored with all the wars, Kang decided to do Time travel for the first time, where he found an abandoned ship with a time machine. Kang decided to re-create the time machine. After all the work done by Kang, he chose to go.
Kang directly traveled to Ancient Egypt almost 20 thousand years before. Nathaniel changed his identity there and put Rama-Tut. All the Egyptians are so scared after seeing his advanced technology they had never faced before. After that, he became the new Pharaoh (King) of Egypt.
How Nathaniel becomes Kang the Conqueror?
Rama-tut makes everyone his servant when he finds out that there is one person who is the same intelligent as him. He is none other than En Sabah Nur, also known as Apocalypse. And Rama-tut decided to take Sabah with him, who was just a kid then.
Further, after a few years, the Fantastic Four arrive at the place doing time travel. And find Kang, who he was, just an ordinary person without any superpowers. The fantastic four easily beat him. Rama-tut was scared, ran away from the place, and did time travel again.
Rama-Tut tried to go to the 30th century, but the time machine was not perfect for where he wanted to go. So, unfortunately, he ends up coming to the present time, and he meets Doctor Doom. After meeting Doom, Nathaniel wants to be as powerful as him, so he becomes the villain, Scarlet Centurion.
After becoming Scarlet Centurion, he went to fight with the Avengers, but unfortunately, Nathaniel lost so badly. And again, he ran to his time machine and wanted to go to the 30th century, but again he ended up in the 40th century.
The 40th century was also at war, and people were confused about how to use technology. Nathaniel used them perfectly and even made the suit for himself. After that, Nathaniel conquered the whole planet and galaxy. And becomes Kang the Conqueror.
After becoming Kang the Conqueror, he started to capture every Universe. At the same time, he decided to go again to the present timeline to kill the Avengers. All the Avengers weren't ready for him and ended up losing to Kang. But, again, Captain America reunited the Avengers, and finally, they won against Kang.
However, he was so powerful that Kang already had created his Variants all over the timelines, where he went to the 28th century, created the city Timely, and became mayor. And at the same time, another Kang created a city named Chronopolis that exists ahead of time.
Who is Kang the Conqueror's love partner?
After all the fights, Kang decides to go to the 40th century again. He meets Ravonna Renslayer, a daughter of the King at that time. Likewise, Kang started to love Ravonna just after seeing her, but Ravonna declined his proposal. And Kang thinks he will show Ravonna his powers to make her fall in love with him.
Using his Time travel powers, he invites all the Avengers into the 40th century and fights with them in front of Ravonna. Where Kang again won against them. Ravonna is impressed by his power and accepts him as her life partner.
How many Variants does Kang the Conqueror have?

After knowing his Variants are increasing daily, Kang decides to take the Council of Kangs, where all Kang's Variants had to be present.
