I always say Egypt won the Geography lottery, at least in the premodern age. It had a reliable steady water source, a yearly flood that doubled or even tripled harvests, three natural borders, the Mediterranean and the deserts, a heavy concentration of natural resources such as gold in the south, a moderate climate that rarely fluctuated and a mostly flat land(Nile valley Egypt) which eases the unification of people into one group and removes a sense of distinction(which is felt in the modern Egyptian state for example between Ethnic Egyptians in the Nile valley and Arab Egyptians in the Sinai or Amazigh Egyptians in Siwa).

[@Wakobear.]

Perhaps, but the floods were unpredictable. If it was too low there was drought there would be famine. If it was too high it would destroy the crop and destroy infrastructure and buildings. As for the triple harvest, this could only be done on land directly next to the Nile itself. Or around deepened Sayfi/Summer canals, which were expensive to build, maintain and required expensive water lifting mechanisms. They also had additional issues such as salination. So throughout most of history rulers of Egypt preferred Basin irrigation. Which some historians have called the least labour intensive form of agriculture ever, since ploughing or fertilizer wasn't needed, just the flood. As well as the most ecologically sustainable. It was only under Muhammad Ali Pasha that Sayfi canals were built extensively, so that he could grow cotton, a summer crop. But the Sayfi canals proved far too expensive to maintain when the British took over, especially when they compared it to their irrigation networks of India which didn't ne to raise the level of the river, without need for the canals. Finally building the Low Aswan Dam to minimize the effects of bad floods. Basin irrigation doesn't seem to have been able to support more than 5-8 million people. It's only in 1880 that Egypt surpassed 8 million, while European countries had surpassed that centuries earlier. (Though part of this is ottoman neglect of the province. Which dropped to a mere 2.5 million on the eve of the French invasion, 300 years prior under the Mamluk Sultanate it was 4-5 million...)

[@YeenMage]

​@@Wakobear. The cycle of the Nile flooding was still a hundred times more stable than the more violent Tigris-Euphrates rivers, as well as the even more violent Huang He and Yangtze rivers in China. These probably affected the religious beliefs of these people - the Egyptians believe that after dying, they have a chance to live forever in the paradise of Aaru; while the Babylonians believed that almost all non-nobles and non-priests will end up in the empty Mot-Hadad's realm, and of course, the Chinese probably sacrificed women and children by drowning them in order to appease He Bo (god of the Yellow River), Ao Kuang and other river and water gods.

[@tomriley5790]

Ironically for a country that is now highly dependant on imported grain, but in ancient times Egypt was a bread basket for multiple empires, I suspect that one of the reasons that Egypt survived (and possilby what made it a target for the sea peoples) was that it had food- whilst the climate upheavals were going on it was able to at least feed (more or less) its people and soldiers. I suspect that this was the main reason for its success whereas empires like the Hitites and Mycene were more dependent on imported food and systems that relied on access to the sea which was what was mainly disrupted (the records around the collapse of the hitites for example show its social order was falling apart and starvation was widespred. Egypts food supply came along the Nile...Overall it seems likely it was a result of a climate perturbation (large volcanic erruption?) egypt was just about able to feed itself despite this.

[@michealdrake3421]

9:00 Greece is an interesting place, in this context in particular. It's one case where the impact the geography has had on the society's history is particularly visible. Since it consists mostly of narrow valleys separated by high, steep mountains, pockets of civilization were isolated from each other, which is why city states prevailed for so long before the land unified as a single country. The natural barriers and narrow passes of the mountains created excellent choke points from which to defend one's territory, but they also made supply logistics challenging, and holding captured territory could be harder than taking it was. They also make Greece very difficult to invade and conquer, because a foreign invader will have an even harder time traversing the narrow valleys and passes than the local Greeks. They'll also have to contend with the fact that each city state has its own culture, traditions, strengths and weaknesses, and ideas about war, invaders, and diplomacy, requiring them to change their tactics and strategy often. But these same features also leave Greece vulnerable to brief raids. The partial isolation of Greek city states made it hard to request and receive aid from allies in a timely manner, and while this would still challenge an invader bent on conquest, it benefits a pirate conducting a brief raid. By the time any message can reach a neighboring city and troops arrive to assist, the raid will be over and the pirates long gone. It would actually make a lot of sense to me if the Greeks were among the hardest hit.

One other thing I feel the Egyptians had going for them was just how long their history stretched back all the way to Egypt's founding, and how much cultural capital was build up for over the course of three millennia. We are talking about a civilization so ancient that it existed from 3100 BC, all the way to the twilight of the Roman Republic. I think this is because to the Egyptian people, no matter what turmoil they faced, no matter how bad things got for them, and even when they were placed under the occupation of foreign rulers, they still believed in the legitimacy and continuation of their civilization. There was just something special about their people, their religion and their identity that they felt was worth dying for, and living for. This I think more than any other reason was why the Ancient Egyptian state was able to persevere for so long and was able to outlast all of their Bronze Age counterparts.

This could be a part of it, but for most of our history we were closed off from said foreigners in small towns and villages, you have to remember the vast majority of Egyptians from the ancient period till the Industrial Revolution were farmers and rarely would they mix with foreigners unless it was about trade, taxation, religion or war. That is actually why modern Egypt is so ethnically homogeneous, after the 50s coup most foreign communities like Greeks, Italians, Jews, Turks, etc left, and Egypt was only left with Egyptians(including Egyptianized foreigners who married into Egyptian families) and a few ethnic minorities like the Arabs Nubians and Berbers.

[@tomasbanni8910]

Another angle I read somewhere is that Egypt survived where other Bronze age empires failed, because other empires became too dependent of heavily armored chariots, at the expenses of more conventional foot solider armies. The Hittites were super keen on chariots but these were vulnerable to the military tactics of the sea peoples, who threw light javelins at them. The Egyptians were smart enough to keep a more conventional foot solider army ready, and thus this blunted the tactics of the sea peoples.

It is also known, though the Smithsonian likes to lock it away, that Egypt's climate wasn't as it is today. While it is mostly arid desert today, save for the areas closest to the Nile, it used to be much more verdant and tropical at distances farther from the river. This made for a much broader area of favorable conditions for resources and habitation. Deserts consume the areas around them, and Egypt was no exception. Current estimations are that the Sahara, for example, was much smaller 4,000 years ago than it is today. The decline of Egypt was due to a number of factors, as with any great nation or empire, but simple loss of habitable land and a great reduction of resources led to migration and death.

[@Steadyaim101]
