The Nile gave life to ancient Egypt. The Nile River basin covers about 1/10 th of Africa in 10 countries 40% of the population lives in this area 95% of Egyptians live along the Nile

Branches of the Nile- White & Blue White Nile begins in Lake Victoria Blue Nile begins in Lake Tana in Ethiopia

Every year, the Nile floods on a fairly predictable basis. Changes in the river affect the water cycle that brings rains to the highlands

Seasonal flooding deposits rich silt onto the nearby farmland.

Farmers use the floodwaters to irrigate their fields.

Provides Cairo with water. Cairo is one of the largest cities in the world.

The Nile is also used for transportation and to create hydroelectric power.

The Aswan High Dam Created Lake Nasser- a man-made reservoir Provides hydroelectric power Controls the flow of the river & provides a stable, year-round supply of water

The Nile Delta provides the richest farmland in Africa, and some of the best in the world and is about 155 miles wide.
