The Amazon River is the largest of the three, both in terms of length and discharge volume, making it the world's largest river by water flow. The Orinoco is also significant but smaller than the Amazon, while the Rio de la Plata is actually an estuary formed by the confluence of the Paraná and Uruguay rivers. Therefore, the Amazon is the largest, followed by the Orinoco, with the Rio de la Plata as an estuarine system rather than a traditional river.
