Show transcript
At one time there were two Egyptian kingdoms: Upper Egypt and Lower Egypt, but around 3,000 BCE they were united.
The civilisation known as the Ancient Egyptians began over 3,000 years before the birth of Christ, 3,000 BC or BCE.
They lived near a large river they called the Nile, in North Africa, protected from enemies by dry land to their sides.
The River Nile was long, deep and filled with a dark black mud.
When the Nile flooded, this mud made the land the Egyptians live on turn black, and become very fertile.
