Nile river

Nile river, al-Nil in brushed Kanji
The longest river in the world that runs from south to north on the east coast of Africa. The total length is 6695km. About one-tenth of the African continent is a basin region.
The White Nile, which flows north through Lake Victoria and Lake Albert, and the Blue Nile, which originates from Lake Tana on the Ethiopian Highlands, meet near Khartoum in Sudan, forming a large triangle in Egypt and pouring into the Mediterranean Sea.
This Kanji notation was used until the early Showa period, but recently katakana notation is common, and few Japanese can read it.
