Was Egypt the first civilization in history of the world or not?

While Ur is the first *known* civilization, there are ruins in Turkie that may well be older.

Also when the glaciers retreated what is now the Gobi desert and the entire band of middle eastern deserts were lush grasslands. It is possible that agriculture was invented there are the known civilizations farther south are descendants of now unknown stone age agricultural societies that were civilized to some extent. Exactly where you drawn the line of what is civilization and what is not matters.

No. Civilization began independently at the beginning of the Holocene, when weather swings pretty much stopped, which was about 10,000 years ago. It began in China, and Mesopotamia roughly at the same time when farming began. Egypt was a fair while later.

Not even close...

The first known civilization was ancient Sumer in Mesopotamia. Close on its heels were civilizations along the Indus River in India and the Yangtze River in China.

No, although some of the first prominent settlements had arisen in Mesopotamia on the banks of Egypt's river Nile.

Not, ancient ruins of a civilization have been discovered in Turkey that pre-date Mesopotamia by thousands of years.
