The Amazon River is one of the world’s great rivers, passing through the countries of Brazil, Peru, and Colombia. It is the largest river in the world by discharge, and the second longest. The Amazon basin is the largest drainage basin in the world, with an area of nearly 7 million square kilometers.<\/p>\n

The Amazon River passes through the South American countries of Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador.<\/p>\n

Where does the Amazon river start and end? <\/h2>\n

The Amazon River basin is the largest in the world, with an area of approximately 7 million square kilometers. The river itself is over 6,400 kilometers long, making it the second longest river in the world (after the Nile). The Amazon River is responsible for approximately 20% of the world’s river discharge into the oceans.<\/p>\n

The Amazon is the largest rainforest in the world, spanning eight rapidly developing countries—Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, and Suriname—and French Guiana, an overseas territory of France. The Amazon is home to an incredible array of plant and animal life, and is an important part of the global climate and water cycle. The forest is also an important source of livelihoods for the many indigenous peoples who live there. However, the Amazon is under threat from deforestation, as well as the effects of climate change.<\/p>\n
