Azeem Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Just now, Harry said: No. Note there are two seperate answers, not one river that holds both titles. One river is the words second longest, another is the second largest flowing. Oh, Amazon is the second longest that i know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon is the second longest as well as being the first in the other category. I got confused by the question earlier thinking its a single river Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your first answer is correct. Amazon is second longest. The Danube is the #40 placed river by discharge flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azeem Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 If its the Atalantic ocean it must be in Africa, Africa is huge for a river of that volume to flow along with the Nile in the same continent . Americas and Europe are too small for two such kind of rivers to flow. River of Niger ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Yes. Sorry I really thought Amazon and Congo were well known number 2s. Those 2, Nile, yangtze, ganges and Mississippi just seem to crop up all the time in geography trivia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azeem Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I would have kept guessing each river with an African country's name, never heard of congo river being prominent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 The Nile being only 5% longer than the Amazon gets it a hell of a lot of attention but really it pales into insignificance when you consider the Amazon flow is close to 100 times greater.

I don't think so, it has more to do with ancient history and mythology that makes Nile so important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
