Due to the Nile flooding regularly, the land beside it was very fertile. This helped them grow a large number of crops, of high quality. When Rome ruled Egypt, they demanded bread as part of their tribute to Caesar.

The Nile river banks and the Egyptian valley was fertile with high yield of crop that was transported by land and sea as trade to other kingdoms in the ancient world.

ancient Egypt was called the "granary to the world" because they gave crops to more continents and throughout Africa. The crops grew because of floods.
