A river over 4,000 miles long in Africa that starts at the confluence of the Blue Nile and the White Nile in Sudan and flows through Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. A river that is generally accepted as the longest in the world, without which there probably be no Egypt as 97% of the population lives in the river's valley. The northern section of the river flows almost entirely through desert and diminishes because of evaporation.

the nile river is the world`s longest river. It flows north from its sources in East Africa to the mediterranean sea for more than 4,000 miles (6,400 kilometers). that is about the distance from New York to Alaska. the nile has 2 main sources. the blue nile rises in the highlands of the present-day country of Ethiopia and races down to the desert in thundering torrents. the white nile is calmer. it begins deep in east Africa and flows northward through swamps. the 2 rivers meet in the present-day country of Sudan. there, the nile begins its journey through desert lands to the mediterranean sea
