10 longest river in the world.

There has long been disagreement as to whether the Amazon or the Nile is the world�s longest river. The length of a river is hard to calculate. It depends on the identification of the source, the identification of the mouth, and the precise measurement of the river length between source and mouth.

As a result, the length measurements of many rivers are only approximations. Here I have compiled some of the longest river in the world. I hope you will like it.
