Which ancient civilization first used a standardized royal symbol system across their empire that included a consistent royal seal design on all official documents and monuments?

From royal seals to architectural motifs, these ancient branding elements served many of the same purposes as today's corporate logos - establishing authenticity, communicating values, and creating instant recognition.
