middle east

Egypt is one of the most populous countries in Africa and the Middle East. The Nile River and its fertile valley are central to Egypt's geography and history. The river rises in Ethiopia each summer, flooding the valleys and leaving behind sediment that plants and crops need to grow. Egypt is often divided into two sections: Upper Egypt in the south and Lower Egypt in the north.
