The Nile River is not only the longest river in Africa, but it’s the longest river in the world. It was an extremely important part of Ancient Egyptian life and provided them with a rich source of food, transportation, and resources used for building. Egyptian civilization developed along the Nile River in large part because the river’s annual flooding ensured reliable, rich soil for growing crops. The Nile supported and allowed life to thrive in the grueling climate.
