Nile River

The Nile is a major north-flowing river in northeastern Africa, approximately 6,650 km long, and flows into the Mediterranean Sea. It is the longest river in Africa and has historically been considered the longest river in the world, although this has been contested by research suggesting that the Amazon River is slightly longer. The Nile's drainage basin covers eleven countries and is the primary water source for Egypt, Sudan, and South Sudan, supporting agriculture and fishing. The river has two major tributaries, the White Nile and the Blue Nile, which meet at the Sudanese capital of Khartoum.learn more on wikipedia
