Egyptian Nile Delta

The Nile (Arabic: النيل‎‎, Coptic: ⲫⲓⲁⲣⲱ) is north-flowing river in northeastern Africa, generally regarded as the longest river in the world, though conflicting sources cite a 2007 study that gave the title to the Amazon in South America. The Nile, which is 6,853 km long, is an international river as its drainage basin covers 11 countries, namely, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Congo, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan, Sudan, and Egypt. The Nile is the primary water source of Egypt and Sudan - without it, both countries would be in great trouble.
