The River Nile

The nile starts near Khartoum, Sudan and ends in /lower Egypt, near the Mediterranean Sea.

a lot

Geographic features of the Nile river valley affect the development of ancient Egypt because it allowed the Egyptians to grow crops. This allowed them to have enough food to support a population and trade.

Yes

The River Orwell runs through Ipswich, England.

The Bremer River (a tributary to the Brisbane River) runs through Ipswich, Australia.

what was the river nile used for in ancient times

It helped the egyptians because, it helped them trade things and it gave them their resources.

No.

Morocco and Western Sahara are in Western Africa and the Nile is in eastern Africa. Furthermore, there are no major rivers in Western Sahara at all.

Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, Uganda, and Burundi.

Nearly half of Egypt's population live in the Nile Delta region. Alexandria is the largest city in the delta with an estimated population of more than 4 million. The link below will give further information.

A very broad question covering thousands of years, however basically, without the Nile Africa would be quite different, there most likely be no Egypt etc just desert. The links below will give further facts.

The area of Blue Nile - state - is 45,844 square kilometers.

There are no mountains near the Nile River.

A river over 4,000 miles long in Africa that starts at the confluence of the Blue Nile and the White Nile in Sudan and flows through Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. A river that is generally accepted as the longest in the world, without which there probably be no Egypt as 97% of the population lives in the river's valley. The northern section of the river flows almost entirely through desert and diminishes because of evaporation.

the nile river is the world`s longest river. It flows north from its sources in east Africa to the mediterranean sea for more than 4,000 miles (6,400 kilometers). that is about the distance from New York to Alaska. the nile has 2 main sources. the blue nile rises in the highlands of the present-day country of Ethiopia and races down to the desert in thundering torrents. the white nile is calmer. it begins deep in east Africa and flows northward through swamps. the 2 rivers meet in the present-day country of Sudan. there, the nile begins its journey through desert lands to the mediterranean sea

Cairo, the capital and largest city of Egypt, borders the Nile River.

According to the Taub Center for Social Policy Studies in Isreal, the countries that have the longest life expentancy for males are: 1) Iceland

2) Japan

3) Switzerland

4) Sweden

5) Australia

6) Israel

It is similar in length than the Thames but may be slightly longer by a few miles.

Yes, the Nile River has frozen before. Once in 829AD and again in 1010AD.

The Blue Nile.

The Cyperus papyrus plant is fairly cosmopolitan in range and is part of the sedge group of plants.

It occurs naturally in north and central Africa (as well as areas of the "fertile crescent" between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers) and grows along rivers, streams and lakes.

The plants claim to fame is that it was used about 6,000 years ago by the ancient Egyptians to produce Papyrus "paper", which was then used to record events and daily life on.

Due to the extremely dry climate in much of north Africa, these scrolls, if they were stored correctly are still readable today enabling archaeologists to piece together ancient life along the Nile.

Although the plant was used extensively in Egypt for this purpose, does not mean that the plant originated there. It's other uses included mats, sandals, baskets and reed boats.

Thor Heyerdahl's famous Ra expedition boats were constructed of papyrus.

While the use of Papyrus as a writing material was Egyptian in origin, the Egyptians never called it "papyrus", the name is derived from Greek and Latin.

The Nile River and itsyearly flooding brought (and still bring) a vast quantity of rich silt that fertelised the land surrounding it and made it arable farmland. As a result, groups of stagnent peoples were able to farm almost year-round and support a much greater population than that of a hunter-gatherer society.

The accurate location of source of the Nile River is 2°19'35"S and 29°21'30"E. The length of the Nile River is 7,088 km or 4,405 miles from its source in Nyungwe National Park of Rwanda to the mouth in Mediterranean Sea.
