Imagine, if you will, a situation where the Battle of Kadesh between the Hittite King Muwatalli II and Egyptian Pharoah
Ramesses II resulted in the cataclysmic defeat of the Hittite army - causing the entire Empire to collapse into successor states. (Say the King is captured and enslaved and his army is completely slaughtered)

How would the sudden destruction of their main opponent in the Levant effect the expansionist potential of the New Kingdom of Egypt?

What butterflies would this cause for the entire region at large?
