∙ 10y agoWorldwide, there are only a handful of rivers that are longer, even when the Mississippi is considered separately from its tributaries. Five longer rivers are the Nile in Africa, the Amazon and the Paraña in South America, and the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers in China.
In North America, only its tributary, the Missouri River, is comparable in length. If traced from its farthest source to its confluence with the Mississippi, the Missouri is actually longer, but not as continuously navigable.
