What are the longest rivers. Rivers provide water for the essential needs of both tiny towns and huge cities. Among the longest rivers of Canada are 47 streams of at least 600 km 370 mi. The Churn Thames length at 229 miles 369 km is therefore greater than the Severn s length of 220 miles 354 km.

The Nile River or the Nile-Kagera is Africas longest river at 6853 km in total. Because the Mississippi river system includes the Missouri river and Red river. Also the Thames tributary the River Churn sourced at Seven Springs adds 14 miles 23 km to the length of the Thames from its traditional source at Thames Head.

It is also responsible for carrying water from the Niles furthest source. The Mackenzie River is the longest stream in Canada if measured from its mouth on the Beaufort Sea to the headwaters of the Finlay River a major upstream tributary. The main stem a much shorter segment of the Mackenzie is marked in dark blue.

Snake River 1078 miles 1735 km Green River 730 miles 1170 km North Platte River 716 miles 1152 km. Either way the River Nile still tops the longest rivers in the world list. Both these rivers also rank in the top 50 longest rivers in the world so it doesnt make sense.
