The ancient Egyptians used the land around the Nile river for 1. planting crops so when the Nile flooded, the crops were watered. 2. they built up some of the surrounding land to create wall-like structures that controlled the flooding.
Thank You for asking this question so that I can gladly answer!
That was where the fertile land was, on which they depended.
The ancient Egyptians called their fertile river valleys the Black Land and their deserts the Red Land.
Around the River Nile because silt was carried down and was clumped in a pile.The ancient Egyptians thought of Egypt as being divided into two types of land, the ''black land'' and the ''red land''.The ''black land'' was the 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 neighboring countries and invading armies. They also provided the ancient Egyptians with a source for precious metals and semi-precious stones.
One way that Ancient Egyptians changed their land is by building temples and pyramids.
Well the soil was not the best around the deserts but around the Nile river it was very good

The Nile river gave many resources to Ancient Egypt gave Egyptians farming land ,fish,clay,water and a lot of other things
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.

Ancient Egyptians were among the pioneers in using IRRIGATION to harness the water of the Nile River and provide it to their crops on large tracts of riverside land.

it is the kemet
no
they all settled near arable land or by a river for irrigation crops
