Best Answer

Deserts like Egypt have rivers like the Nile, which flood and provide fertile soil for good farming, they have cataracts, or natural river barriers, that block the rivers at certain places. The climate was hot and dry, which meant farming wasn't too good unless there was a fertile delta or river nearby.
