Egyptian Landforms in the Past

With the lack of technology and the

inability to build and expand, Egyptians

lived on a much smaller area than

today. The desert spread through the

majority of the country, and Egyptians

had to live in places close to the Nile

River to have water access.

Other areas were also di cult to live in.

However, Bedouins adapted to their

harsh conditions and made them their

home.

Egyptian Landforms Today

Today, Egypt is much di erent and is on

an expansion plan for years to come.

Egyptians live now in areas and districts

that did not exist years ago, and with

the help of technology and resources,

water and supplies can reach those

places.

The new Administrative Capital is an

example of the change and the

expansion of the Egyptian landforms.
