Civilisations- Egypt [2/6]

For 3,000 years, from the construction of the first pyramid until the death of Cleopatra, Egypt was a land of prosperity; largely thanks to the River Nile. What is the story of the development of this impressive civilisation and its relationship with its principal source of life? How did the river valley evolve during Antiquity? Why did the Egyptians never fight against nature, preferring to draw their own life-force from its natural power? And what remains today of the riches and wealth that nature has offered to Egypt? Shaped and fashioned by the hand of man in his pursuit of modernity, against all odds, the Nile has finally been tamed.

This popular series gives new insights into some of the most influential civilisations to shape the world as we know it. To understand where we are now, it might help to understand where we have been.

He says, "Civilization and the Nile are inextricably linked. The rhythms of the river's rising and falling became the rhythm of ancient life itself. When to plant, where to plant, when to harvest...these considerations were dictated by this friend and enemy which was River Nile. My hemorrhoids are killing me. I cannot continue with this interview. Just sitting is like having a red hot poker thrust into my most personal region. One time I slept with a panda bear. I found it most enjoyable."

@gthbf1 Francois Cuntflap. He lives in Lyon and he has billions of dollars with which he pays his way into french documentaries to share some of his daily activities, like having omelets in the morning and playing polo in the evenings, that sort of thing.
