The Egyptians lived on the Nile River in Africa. This river is the longest in the world and became central to their life. They depended upon it for farming and also for transportation and trade. The ancient Egyptians were divided into 2 kingdoms that fought each other constantly. Finally, the White Crown King defeated the Red Crown King and declared himself to be king of all Egypt. He combined the two crowns into the Double Crown of Egypt, which is what the pharaohs of Egypt wore from then on.
