Egypt was called the "Gift of the Nile" for 5 reasons. Firstly they used the black land (mud) left after the Nile's yearly flood to farm. This mud was very very fertile and because of this they had a surplus of food. Egyptians decided to sell this food, so, developing better ships, allowed themselves to export and gain wealth. It was also a source of fishing, and they invented irrigation ditches to irrigate their farms. The Nile also provided water for the Egyptians.
The Nile River's annual flooding benefited Egypt by providing irrigation and deposited silt for fertile soil. In Nubia, the Nile ran high on the river banks which left little room for farming and people had to live near the river for their water supply.you have to add more detail
The Nile River provided early Egyptians with a reliable source of water for irrigation, enabling them to cultivate fertile land and support agriculture. Its annual flooding deposited nutrient-rich silt along the riverbanks, which enhanced crop yields. Additionally, the surrounding deserts acted as natural barriers, offering protection from invasions and helping to preserve the stability of early Egyptian civilization. Together, these elements facilitated the growth of a prosperous society centered around the Nile.
