What is the Nile sometimes called?

The Great Valleys of the Nile.

The green oasis amid a desert region with little rainfall. People live along the banks of the river, also called the valleys. People of Egypt learned about the country of Egypt by studying the great artifacts of the Nile River. People started settling along the Nile in about 5500 B.C. living in the valleys made it easier to get crops because of the wet Nile. They could easily get what they needed to survive.

What happens when you can't control the Nile?

Well, I'm sure there is many thing to do when the Nile gets out of hand, meaning it could over flood, or not flood enough. The main thing Egyptians do is build a network of irrigation canals and ditches to carry water to and from fields. To get water all throughout the surrounding Egypt/Nile area. Which when they lived in the time 5500 B.C. the Nile was probably very hard to control without the great technology they and ourselves have now.

Can the Nile danger egypt?

Yes!
 One thing that can happen is that, there could be a drought, this is where it doesn't flood during flood season. There was once when the country of Egypt was completely wiped out by drought because of no flood/water for food, transportation and power. When it floods, it creates a slither of fertile land. Who knew flooding could be such a great thing to some people in this world!?


Flood season is between July and September. (every summer) These are the months that is usually flood in Egypt from The Nile river. I guess this is why they call it "The Gift of The Nile!"

Can a river really support Egyptians, better yet- anybody!?

Even though the Nile is just a river, its a river the provides nutrient rich water, that helps with food. Transportation,  and power.  Paper was also made from papyrus water reed which grew on the banks of the Nile River. So it's pretty obvious that the people of Egypt depended on the Nile! And that is was a natural resource to the Egyptians! The water from the Nile enables farmers to grow clover, wheat and beans in the winter. Cotton, corn, millet and rice in the summer.

Thousands of miles long!

Imagine floating down 4,132 MILES of water, like Osiris did in his coffin, but that's not exactly normal. However, the Nile River is really 4,132 miles long, 10 miles wide. This river flows all through Egypt. Its also surrounded by valleys, crops, and you guessed it! Pyramids are just east of the river! The Nile River usually flows northward-with some uncontrolled flowing. Flows towards the Mediterranean Sea. It also makes up and percentage of Egypt's total land mass!  It starts at the Valley and ends at the Delta.
