Please what is the history and development of the Egyptian map​
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Explanation:Egypt, country located in the northeastern corner of Africa. Egypt’s heartland, the Nile River valley and delta, was the home of one of the principal civilizations of the ancient Middle East and, like Mesopotamia farther east, was the site of one of the world’s earliest urban and literate societies. Pharaonic Egypt thrived for some 3,000 years through a series of native dynasties that were interspersed with brief periods of foreign rule. After Alexander the Great conquered the region in 323 BCE, urban Egypt became an integral part of the Hellenistic world. Under the Greek Ptolemaic dynasty, an advanced literate society thrived in the city of Alexandria, but what is now Egypt was conquered by the Romans in 30 BCE. It remained part of the Roman Republic and Empire and then part of Rome’s successor state, the Byzantine Empire, until its conquest by Arab Muslim armies in 639–642 CE.

1    -       3     -     4    -   2

Explanation:

1  . A stream migrates laterally across its floodplain developing meanders. This stream terminates at a lake, which is its base level.

2. The base level of the stream is lowered by crustal uplift and the river begins to incise downward.

3.Incised meanders form.

4.A rincon forms by the cutoff of an incised meander, which shortens the river.

From its source high in the Rocky Mountains, the Colorado River channels water south nearly 1,500 miles, over falls, through deserts and canyons, to the lush wetlands of a vast delta in Mexico and into the Gulf of California. That is, it did so for six million years.

natima [27]
The correct answer is letter D. Rain shadow refers to this specific phenomenon. This happens because the mountains tend to block the precipitation causing the area below it to experience a dry climate.
