How does the Amazon River rank in size when compared with other rivers?

The Amazon River accounts for about a fifth of the drainage of all the rivers in the world! That means that of all the water (volume) drained by all the rivers of the world, the Amazon alone handles about 20% or 1/5th of it. That's a lotof water! Additionally the Amazon basin, the name given to the area of land that the Amazon drains, is the largest river basin in the world. The Amazon is clearly the largest river in the world. Note that by some geographic fluke, the Nile River is a tiny bit longer than the Amazon. A link can be found below.
