The upper region in Egypt?

The Nile does not flow backwards but it does flow north to the Mediterranean Sea -- the northern area near the sea including Cairo and the Nile Delta is called Lower Egypt, while the southern area is called Upper Egypt.
Why is the south Egypt called the upper Egypt?
The region of Northern Egypt is termed Lower Egypt because it is further downstream on the Nile River. Conversely, the region of Southern Egypt is termed Upper Egypt because it is further upstream on the Nile River. The Nile River flows from south to north.
On which present day continent was nubia located?
North Africa
Why is the southern part of Egypt called Upper Egypt?
(The upper and lower refer to the river course.) Because the Nile flows NORTHWARD from equatorial Africa , the "Upper Nile" is the southern end and "Lower Nile" the northern end, where its delta meets the Mediterranean Sea. The "White Nile" is created by the feeder rivers of Lake Victoria in Uganda, while the "Blue Nile" begins in Ethiopia above Addis Ababa. The two Niles flow together some distance north, at Khartoum in Sudan. "LOWER EGYPT" is the name applied to the Nile Delta north of Dahshur (just upriver from Cairo). "UPPER EGYPT" refers to the cataract region downriver from Sudan.
