An ancient Greek historian named Herodotus called Egypt the "Gift of the Nile" because the Egyptian people depended on the great river. Each year, the Nile would overflow its banks and flood the land. When the flood subsided, it left behind bits of soil and plant life called silt that was rich in nutrients and allowed the people of Ancient Egypt to grow crops on the land. Most people lived near the Nile River as the land beyond was the Sahara Desert. Egypt's northern border is the Mediterranean Sea.

Harvesting these crops were often labor intensive that many free workers were unwilling to do without high wages that plantation owners did not wish to pay. These crops could only be grown in the south (or the Caribbean) due to the soil and climate.
