Is Niagara Falls located in Canada or the US?

The term "America" refers to the continents of North America and South America. Niagara Falls is in North America. Canada is also in North America. The term "Niagara Falls" has more than one meaning. There are actually three falls that constitute the waterway collectively called Niagara Falls. They are the magnificent "Horseshoe Falls," which is almost entirely within Canada, as well as the lesser "American Falls" and the small "Bridal Veil Falls, both of which are in the US. There are also two cities named "Niagara Falls." One is in the State of New York, in the US, and the other (the larger) is in the Province of Ontario, Canada.


How did Niagara falls form and develop?

The Niagara Falls were created at the end of the Wisconsin glaciation about 10,000 years ago. When the ice melted, the Great Lakes drained over the Niagara Escarpment by way of the Niagara River. The River initially cut a gorge through the escarpment. The layers of rock in the escarpment have a top rock formation that is composed of harder stone that eroded more slowly than the underlying materials. The softer rock preferentially eroded away, undercutting the harder rock. The unsupported top rocks gave way from time to time creating a sharp edge for the falls. If the entire formation had been softer rock the present Falls would have been reduced to a series of rapids. == ==
