Because upper Egypt is on higher ground than lower Egypt, another reason is the way the Nile flows. Upper Egypt was the part that had the first part of the river Nile flowing through it. As the river went lower as it flowed to the sea, the other part was labelled Lower Egypt. It can be confusing because Upper Egypt is in the south of the country and Lower Egypt is the north.
