Why did ancient Egyptians call their country the black land?
Well, at the moment, the controversy about people claiming that the Ancient Egyptians were black which is false, is why some people may think that the Egyptians called their country the black land. But that is not the reason, as they were not black. The Ancient Egyptians called their land Kemet, which means black land. The soil at the banks of Nile was very dark in colour, and the soil was of great importance, since the country was mostly desert. Because the soil was dark, the Ancient Egyptians thought of their country as a dark, or black land, because of the land colour around the river.

Why do Egypt have black land and red land?
The 'black land' called 'kemet' by the Egyptians, was fertile land on the banks of the Nile. The ancient Egyptians used this land for growing their crops. This was the only land in ancient Egypt that could be farmed because a layer of rich, black silt was deposited there every year after the Nile flooded. The 'red land' was the barren desert that protected Egypt on two sides. These deserts separated ancient Egypt from neighbouring countries and invading armies. They also provided the ancient Egyptians with a source for precious metals and semi-precious stones. The Egyptians called the red land 'desret' (that's not a typo).
