Question

Describe the characteristics of the Nile River and the river's importance to the people of Egypt. Write a paragraph of at least 5 complete
sentences.

Answer 1

The Nile is the longest river in the world, at more than 4,000 miles long. It flows north through Egypt and empties into the Mediterranean Sea. The river is the only source of water for Egypt and Sudan, and is extremely important for agriculture. The river irrigates the surrounding farmland and allows farmers to grow crops like cotton. Most people in Egypt live in the river valley, and the largest cities, like Cairo, are located on its banks. It makes up just 3% of the land area of Egypt, but about 99% of the people live there.

Answer:

The Nile River helped the people of Egypt have a source of water to create a civilization and also provided as a form of transportation and kept the temperatures down.  Without the nile River, Egypt's people would have terrible conditions to live in because most of Egypt is hot desert.Egypt would most likely have a very small population (like 50,000) if the nile river didn't exist. Notice how most of Egypt's cities are along the coastline of the Nile River or the Ocean.
