Since the Nile River flows upward, Egypt is practically upside down. As a result, the ruling Pharaohs preferred the upper or Northern part of the river and country. This part of the country was crucial to their respective kingdoms and trade routes.

The black lands where farming areas around the nile and the red lands are deserts. They call the farming areas black lands beacause the soil when the nile floods (whitch is like a natrual ferilizer for the crops) is black. But, in the desert the sand and soil are a redish color (I am not sure why it is a redish color).
