Nile River is the longest river in the world

The  Nile River is about 6,670 km (4,160 miles) in length and is the longest river in Africa and in the world. It is like a giant snake that slithers through some of the driest desert on. It passes through the present-day countries of Uganda, Ethiopia, Sudan and Egypt. Although it is generally associated with Egypt, only 22% of the Nile’s course runs through that country creating a fertile green valley across the desert. .
