There are countless examples of rivers flowing northward. Some of the most famous rivers that flow north include the world's longest Nile River, Russia's Ob, Lena, and Yenisey Rivers, the Red River in the United States and Canada, Canada's Mackenzie River, and California's San Joaquin River. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of additional rivers and streams that flow northward around the world.

No. Many of the longest rivers in the world flow noth, including the longest the Nile. Others include Yenisei_River, Angara_River, Selengaand Lena in Russia, and the Yukon in Alaska. Many huge Canadian rivers flow north too. the Seine and Rhine flow north in Europe.
Actually many rivers run north in North America. Water has no sense of direction. If flows downhill by gravity. Most rivers east of the Rocky Mountains do flow in a southerly direction because the elevation is lower to the south and they are flowing toward the Gulf of Mexico. Source: Riverlorian.com
I don't actually know....
In North America, rivers east of the Continental Divide flow into the ATLANTIC ocean.This was a Daily Geography question, wasn't it? ^^
There are a few rivers located in Portugal, including the main river, the Tagus, which is located to the north. The south contains many plateaus and plains.
The war had primarily been fought in the south, not the north. The south had to be re-built.
Several rivers flow in opposite directions within a state. The Hudson, a tidal estuary, flows north (upstream) with the incoming tide, and then flows south with the outgoing tide. There are many similar estuary rivers. Several other rivers will flow in different directions due to meanders, or oxbows. See the Goosenecks of the San Juan in Utah. the river flows generally west, but will meander south, west, then north within just a few miles. Finally, several rivers like the Snake in Idaho make large bends. The Snake flows south-west in eastern Idaho, and bends north-east in western Idaho.

Downhill would be the only sure answer. Depending on the river they will flow in many different directions during the course of their travels. The Nile moves North, the Mississippi moves South, the Amazon goes mostly East.
