he population of the area grew because of the success of the farmland.
Egyptians life arose from waters along the Nile bank, this river flows North
through the heart of Africa to the Mediterranean Sea.

of life that people, animals, and plants needed to survive in the Nile Valley,

city. Ancient China and Ancient Egypt have many differences the way that they

styles but they are slightly similar. Most people of Ancient China were peasant
farmers who grew on small plots of land. Farmers in the North grew wheat,
millet, and barley to eat. Because there were few farm animals to produce
manure so human poop was used instead. Many farmers used wooden or stone tools
even after bronze iron weapons. The people in Ancient Egypt highly valued life,
