Ancient Egypt was a narrow
strip of land along the Nile River. Each year the river flooded its banks,
leaving behind a fertile fringe of soil they called "the Black Land,"
while the desert all around the Nile valley was called "the Red
Land." This land was proted from foreign influence for
four major reasons.
- The land surrounding the Nile River
Valley is a desert.
- There are several cataracts (or large
waterfalls) along the Nile River south of the ancient civilization which
impaired invasion
- Not many people ventured into the sea
before 1500BC, so the Mediterranean Sea formed a natural border.
- Enemies, therefore, could only
invade Egypt by crossing the narrow Isthmus of Suez.
It was here the Ancient
Egyptians built their Dynasty.
