Well, at the moment, the controversy about people claiming that the Ancient Egyptians were black which is false, is why some people may think that the Egyptians called their country the black land. But that is not the reason, as they were not black. The Ancient Egyptians called their land Kemet, which means black land. The soil at the banks of Nile was very dark in colour, and the soil was of great importance, since the country was mostly desert. Because the soil was dark, the Ancient Egyptians thought of their country as a dark, or black land, because of the land colour around the river.
