The Middle East, a mosaic of cultures mixed together in a volatile world. Ready to blow up at a moment's notice, the Middle East is one of the worlds most troubled spots. Vast stretches of desert exist where almost nothing can live. However, next door, the cradle of civilization, a fertile valley rich in water and oil is only a few miles away. In another few milies comes the sea full of shipping and commerce. In addition, the Middle East is where the East meets West. Ancient traders long crossed this land with caravans of precious goods to bring back to their homelands.
Geographical diversity is one of the definig factors of the Middle East. From desert to lush vallies, from mountains to oceans, from oil to the different sections of the Middle East define it. Vastly different geographies support vastly different pouplations. Lush vallies support large amounts of crops which support large pouplation. Deserts, however, are devoid of life. They support nothing but a few creatures, if that. Thus the pouplation of the Middle East is concentrated in a few select places in the Middle East, while vast streatches of desert sands lie practally empty.
One of the most fertile vallies in the Middle East, lies along the banks of the Nile River. The Nile River makes up the heart of Egypt, both modern and ancient. Until recetly, the river flooded every year, depositing rich soil over the desert. This soil let crops be grown along the river, and could support a large population. This gave rise to one of the most recognized ancient civilizations on earth, Ancient Egypt. The rulers of Ancient Egypt managed to build huge pyramids from their large po pulation. The Nile Valley is one of the richest in the Middle East. In present day, it supports more then 250 people per suqare mile, the most in the Middle East. Nowdays the river has been dammed (sp) uand modern means have replaced the floods. but the river is still the cradle of life for many people in the reigon.
