Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

These factors greatly affected where ancient people settled. Early Settlement of Egypt and Kush In Egypt and Kush, most people farmed in the fertile Nile River valley. The Nile River provided fresh water in an area that was mostly desert. The topography of the Nile River valley made the land good for farming.
