Different types of Rivers
  • Mississippi River-
  • Nicknamed Ol Man River, the Mississippi got
    its name from the Native American Ojibwe words
    meaning Great River and rightly so. The largest
    river system in North America, the Mississippi
    flows through 10 states and is the worlds fourth
    longest river.
  • Congo River-Named after the ancient Kingdom of
    Kongo, the Congo River is the deepest river in
    the world, going beyond 220 metres. The
    powerhouse of Africa runs a dramatic and
    turbulent route. Charging towards a violent
    stretch of rapids, it makes multiple drops
    creating magnificent waterfalls before ending off
    into the Atlantic Ocean.

  • River Nile
  • The worlds longest river at 6,650
    kilometres, the Nile has been bringing life and
    wealth into Egypt since the Stone Age. Meandering
    through 10 African countries, it quenches the
    surrounding desert terrain and deposits rich
    sediments that fertilise crop lands.
  • Ganges River
  • Flowing through India and Bangladesh, the
    Ganges is most revered by followers of Hinduism.
    It is worshipped as a goddess known as Mother
    Ganga.  Over 2,500 kilometres in length, the
    Ganges supports around 400 million people.
  • Murray River
  • Australian aboriginal mythology speaks of the
    Great Ancestor, Ngurunderi, who created the
    Murray River with his tracks while chasing a
    Murray cod. Scientists, however, believe that it
    was created some 40 million years ago and has
    remained
