Everything Everywhere Daily - The Nile River (Encore)

There is an old saying that da Nile isn’t just a river in Egypt. That is true. It is also a river in Sudan, South Sudan, Ethiopia, and Uganda. 

The Nile is the longest river in the world, yet it is one of the smallest major rivers in the world. 

Historically, some of the world’s greatest civilizations have depended on it, and today it is still a source of conflict between countries that depend on it for water and power. 

Learn more about the Nile River and how its geography has and continues to shape history, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
