The (Red) Nile is a combination of two rivers: the tributaries called the White Nile and the Blue Nile. The White Nile spills from the waters of Lake Victoria in Uganda and flows through the Sudan where it joins the Blue Nile near Khartoum. The Blue Nile rises in the mountains of Ethiopia and flows into the Sudan where it connects with the White Nile. The conjoined White and Blue Niles (now the Red Nile) continues to flow north through the Sudan and into Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea. Thus, properly speaking the Nile flows through Uganda, Ethopia, the Sudan and Egypt.
