Amazon River is the longest river in the world. Its basin is 4,195 miles in length or 7,383,200 long in yards.
The Amazon river is extremely wide for most of its length, so the potential dam sites are located in its tributaries.
The river that begins in the Andes mountains and flows eastward across South America into the Atlantic Ocean is the Amazon River. It is the largest river by discharge volume of water in the world. The Amazon River has a length of approximately 4,345 miles (7,062 kilometers) and is home to a diverse ecosystem with a wide variety of plant and animal species.
you poo on it
The river has dirt and weeds and fish in it. Like any other river, some of the fish are endangered or they are exotic

Rivers are not measured by yards or feet, but miles.
The Amazon river with a length of approx. 6,400 km (4,000 mi).
The length of the liver remains the same.
There are no locks along the Amazon River. The river is mostly navigable due to its depth and width, allowing vessels to travel its entire length without the need for locks.
During the wet season the amazon river can exceed over a 120 miles in width , the length is 6,400 kilometers and 4,000 miles.
There over 1'100 tributaries in the Amazon river.
The Amazon River flows through the countries of Brazil, Colombia, and Peru. Its length is approximately 6,437 kilometers, or 4,000 miles.
Because God and Mother Nature couldn't decide on anything smaller :) Besides, it travels through a vast watery land, so it spreads. Plus it has many smaller rivers feeding it's flow to the sea.
As the length of the Andes is in excess of 7000km long, they contain the sources of literally hundreds of rivers. Many of these flow to the Pacific in the West, but many of those rivers that flow to the East eventually flow into the Amazon. The most distant source of the Amazon from its outflow into the sea is a glacial stream on Nevado Mismi (18,363 ft high) in the Peruvian Andes. This progresses into the Ucayali which joins the Marañón and eventually the Amazon itself.
