Nile

The Nile River runs through 10 nations, including the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and is 4,528 kilometers long. It is fed by two large tributaries, the White Nile and the Blue Nile. It has been highlighted as a key source of revenue since it is utilized for transportation, agriculture production, and fishing for the local population.

Furthermore, the climate is equatorial-Mediterranean, with strong rainfall patterns causing flooding and, in certain cases, drought. Sadly, despite the economic power that a major river presence may provide, the people who live along it are characterized by growing poverty, instability, and significant environmental damage. Furthermore, territorial conflicts over the river have arisen between the nations that share it. However, in 2010, a water dispute resolution was reached that resulted in a shared vision of poverty alleviation that was endorsed by all countries.
