A river always flows from the highest to lowest elevation, and so Lower Egypt is in the North and Upper Egypt is in the South. It seems backwards, but it does make sense because Lower Egypt has lower elevation than Upper Egypt so the delta empties there. It obviously makes more sense that a river flows downhill instead of uphill.
