The Amazon River is located in Africa. It is the continent’s second longest river, after the Nile. The river has its source in the highlands of Ethiopia, in the Lake Tana region. From there, it flows south through the Sudan, and then eventually empties into the Atlantic Ocean.<\/p>\n

The Amazon River is located in Brazil, South America.<\/p>\n

Is the Amazon river in Egypt? <\/h2>\n

The Amazon River is an amazing natural wonder. At 3,976 miles (6,400 km) in length, it is the world’s second longest river. It narrowly loses the title for the world’s longest river to the Nile River in Egypt, which is 4,132 miles (6,650 km) in length. The Amazon River is an important part of the South American ecosystem and is home to many plants and animals. It is also an important economic resource for the countries it runs through.<\/p>\n

The Amazon is the world’s largest tropical rainforest, covering a huge area of South America. Nearly 60% of the rainforest is in Brazil, while the rest is shared among eight other countries—Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, Venezuela and French Guiana, an overseas territory of France.<\/p>\n
