Egypt was called the gift of the Nile because the Nile river gave life to the desert. This was an essential river during this time and civilizations started developing after people began farming in this region.
Egypt is often referred to as 'the gift of the nile' because it flourished and survived by the annual flooding of the Nile River which made the soil extremely fertile. The fertile soil allowed for the growing of crops and without this overflow, Egypt probably would not have survived.
