Why was the Mediterranean Sea major for the Ancient Egyptians?
In the north, delta marshes stopped invaders who sailed from the Mediterranean Sea. These physical features gave the Egyptians advantages that Mesopotamians lacked.
The Mediterranean Sea to the north and the Red Sea to the east provided routes for trade. Shortly before the Nile reaches the Mediterranean Sea, it splits into many branches that resemble a plant's bloom. Also It is the Nile that flows north about 4,000 miles (6,437 km) from central Africa to the Mediterranean Sea .
