The Nile river has always been one that brought silt and fertility, and it’s trajectory has NEVER changed.
The yellow river? It has changed for 20 times in the last 500 years, and has only stopped thanks to the PRC creating dams to stop these floods.
These floods literally happened in a way that lead to previously relatively dry land becoming new river basins, it also lead to destruction not only in these new river basins but also the surrounding areas because these river basins haven’t even created a basin yet, so where the centuries of consistent flooding of the Nile created an easily predictable area of affect, when the rain hit hard on china you were fucking fucked as any fuck could ever be fucked, and millions fucking died.
