The River Nile - Aerial / Elevated View. The Nile Is A Major North-Flowing River In Africa, Generally Regarded As The Longest River In The World. However, Recent Findings Suggest That The Amazon River May Be Longer. The Nile Has Two Major Tributaries, The White Nile And Blue Nile, The Latter Being The Source Of Most Of The Nile's Water And Fertile Soil, But The Former Being The Longer Of The Two. The White Nile Rises In The Great Lakes Region Of Central Africa, With The Most Distant Source In Southern Rwanda, And Flows North From There Through Tanzania, Lake Victoria, Uganda And Southern Sudan, While The Blue Nile Starts At Lake Tana In Ethiopia, Flowing Into Sudan From The Southeast. The Two Rivers Meet Near The Sudanese Capital Khartoum. The Northern Section Of The River Flows Almost Entirely Through Desert, From Sudan Into Egypt, A Country Whose Civilization Has Depended On The River Since Ancient Times. Most Of The Population Of Egypt And All Of Its Cities, With The Exception Of Those Near The Coast, Lie Along Those Parts Of The Nile Valley North Of Aswan; And Nearly All The Cultural And Historical Sites Of Ancient Egypt Are Found Along The Banks Of The River. The Nile Ends In A Large Delta That Empties Into The Mediterranean Sea. The Usage Of The Nile River Has Been Vastly Associated With African Politics For Many Decades. Various African Countries Have Complained About The Egyptian Domination Of The Nile Water Resources.

The River Nile - Aerial / Elevated View. The Nile is a major north-flowing river in Africa, generally regarded as the longest river in the world. However, recent findings suggest that the Amazon River may be longer. The Nile has two major tributaries, the White Nile and Blue Nile, the latter being the source of most of the Nile's water and fertile soil, but the former being the longer of the two. The White Nile rises in the Great Lakes region of central Africa, with the most distant source in southern Rwanda, and flows north from there through Tanzania, Lake Victoria, Uganda and southern Sudan, while the Blue Nile starts at Lake Tana in Ethiopia, flowing into Sudan from the southeast. The two rivers meet near the Sudanese capital Khartoum. The northern section of the river flows almost entirely through desert, from Sudan into Egypt, a country whose civilization has depended on the river since ancient times. Most of the population of Egypt and all of its cities, with the exception of those near the coast, lie along those parts of the Nile valley north of Aswan; and nearly all the cultural and historical sites of Ancient Egypt are found along the banks of the river. The Nile ends in a large delta that empties into the Mediterranean Sea. The usage of the Nile River has been vastly associated with African politics for many decades. Various African countries have complained about the Egyptian domination of the Nile water resources.
