The Nile began to form after the last ice age, approximately 10,000 years ago. The the water coming from the White Nile and the Blue Nile (their sources being the Great Lakes region on central Africa and Lake Tanain Ethiopia respectively). Although now the two rivers meet in the Sudanese capital of Khatoum, the course of the rivers have changed dramatically in the past due to climate changes.

The Nile River, which formed the focus of ancient Egyptian civilization, originates in the highlands of East Africa and flows northward throughout the length of what are now Sudan and Egypt. Northwest of modern-day Cairo, it branches out to form a broad delta, through which it empties into the Mediterranean Sea. Because of seasonal rains farther south in Africa, the Nile overflowed its banks in Egypt every year. When the floodwaters receded, a rich black soil covered the floodplain. This natural phenomenon and its effects on the environment enabled the ancient Egyptians to develop a successful economy based on agriculture.
