The Nile provided the Egyptians with a great opportunity for communication and transportation.
Explanation:
- The river flows northwards and provides ease of navigation in this direction, while at the same time the main winds blow southward, which provides ships with the ability to navigate counter currents.
- It is no wonder, then, that the name of the gift of the Nile is added to ancient Egypt, as Herodotus mentioned it.
- Egypt was much more isolated than other ancient civilizations, especially those in Mesopotamia.
- It is surrounded on two sides by a desert, which by its characteristics serves as a natural barrier of defense, and on the upper course of the Nile, its cataracts, or rapids, begin, and intrusion on this side is difficult.
- As a result of such isolation, Egyptian civilization could evolve more freely without fear of invaders, or the mixing of cultures that characterized the civilizations of Mesopotamia, but at the same time developed a strong xenophobia (fear of foreign influence) among Egyptians.
