Answer
Mesopotamia
Explanation
Mesopotamia is a region between the two rivers Tigris and Euphrates in western Asia. They depended on annual flooding to produce a constant surplus of food because the floods brought silt which was very fertile to the lands and it contained the minerals required by the soil and the nutrients which helps the plants to be more productive.
Also in Egypt floods along the river Nile helped farmers in good production of plants because it carried black soil to their farms which was very fertile.
In ancient times, powerful kingdoms also arose in East Africa. The kingdom of Kush thrived on the Nile River for hundreds of years. The kingdom benefited from its location on the Red Sea. It was an important stop on the trade route linking Africa, the Mediterranean, and India.
