Culture of Nile Valley
Around 105 million people live along the Nile, most of these in Egypt. The Nile has been the source of civilization for more than 5,000 years. The greatest of these civilizations belongs to Ancient Egypt. More recent, and less impressive, but still important was Nubia, belonging to the region of modern Sudan. This period lasted until about 0 CE.
Following that period, important cultures arose in Egypt. First was the Roman and Coptic periods, followed by a number of strong Muslim states. These include the Fatimids, the Ayyubids and finally the Mamluks. Since the 16th century, the cultures around the Nile have been weak and poor.
Modern Egypt and Sudan are the poorest countries in North Africa and the Middle East, with enormous problems. Uncontrolled population growth of these two countries provide for bleak future prospect, even if the Egyptian economy has shown growth in the late 1990’s.
