The longest river in the world is the Nile River, which stretches for 4,135 miles (6,650 kilometers) from its source in Burundi to its delta in Egypt.

The Nile River flows through eleven countries, including Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Congo-Kinshasa, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan, Sudan, and Egypt, making it the longest river in Africa as well as the world.

The Nile is also the primary source of water for Egypt and Sudan, providing water for agriculture, hydroelectric power, and other human activities.

Other long rivers include the Amazon River in South America, the Yangtze River in China, and the Mississippi River in the United States.
