Ptolomaic Egypt is about where I feel Thay fits historically... but I think it has a more sinister feel to it.
It's like Mulhorand is Ptolomaic Egypt, and Thay is a breakaway kingdom that has turned more toward Set than Horus. Like Stygia in the world of Hyboria (RE Howard's setting for Conan, which isn't horribly ill-portrayed in the Conan movies when it comes to dusky wizards who're like boogey men to the more virtuous neighboring lands).
