The River Nile is formed from the Blue Nile, which originates at Lake Tana in Ethiopia, and the White Nile, which originates at Lake Victoria. These rivers meet in Sudan and then go on their long journey northwards towards the sea.The white Nile is a lot bigger then the Blue Nile.he River Nile originates in Burundi, south of the equator, and flows northward through northeastern Africa, eventually flowing through Egypt and finally draining into the Mediterranean Sea. Map of the River Nile from space. The land is green on either side of the Nile.
The Nile River shaped ancient Egypt in that it provided a waterway for trading, a means of defending against enemies, and a water source for agriculture. Each year, the river flooded the land around it. This caused silt deposits to develop and made the land fertile for agriculture. Wheat and papyrus were important crops in ancient Egypt. Agricultural life in Egypt was dependent on the Nile River because much of Egypt was desert. Egyptian merchants both exported and imported goods. Sailing vessels traveled along the Nile River for trading purposes. Boats from Egypt could travel north to the Mediterranean Sea.
