in what country do the two main tributaries of the nile river join?
egypt
the nile river is an international water basin, running through 10 different sovereign nations. the nile runs through sudan, south sudan, burundi, rwanda, democratic republic of the congo, tanzania, kenya, uganda, ethiopia, and egypt and is considered to be the longest river in the world. the nile is the only significant source of water in north africa and 40% of africa’s population lives in the nile river basin. the nile has two major tributaries: the white nile and the blue nile. the white nile is the longer of the two, rising in the great lakes region of central africa. its most distant source is unknown, located in either burundi or rwanda. from there, it flows through tanzania, lake victoria, uganda, and south sudan. the blue nile originates from ethiopia’s lake tana, flowing into sudan from the southeast. in total, ethiopian headwaters provides 86% of nile river waters. the two major tributaries meet near the sudanese capital of khartoum and flow north through egypt and into the mediterranean sea.
