How are fertile crescents related to the Blue and White Nile?

A fertile crescent is a bit of fertile land in the middle of a desert or dry area. The Blue and White Nile are rivers that flow into the hot, dry, desert areas of northeastern Africa. When the rivers overflow, the deposit sediment and water onto the land. This sediment is very fertile, so plants begin to grow. Eventually, the land becomes very fertile and forms a fertile crescent around the banks of the Blue and White Nile. That is how fertile crescents relate to the Blue and White Nile. *This answer was posted by a 7th grader from Snelson Golden Middle School from Liberty County, Georgia.
