Best Answer

The Nile River is located on the continent of Africa and consists of two main branches (the White Nile and the Blue Nile), these merge and become one river known simply as the Nile River. The White Nile is the source of most of the Nile's water and fertile soil. The White Nile is the longer of the two rivers.

The source of the White Nile is the Great Lakes area in Rwanda.

The source of the Blue Nile is Lake Tana, Ethiopia in the Ethiopian hill-country.

The White Nile flows from Rwanda, through Tanzania, Uganda, South Sudan and then Sudan.

The Blue Nile flows from its source in Ethiopia into south eastern Sudan.

Both the White and Blue Niles travel through Sudan and then merge at Khartoum (where the name changes simply to The Nile River) before traveling north through the rest of Sudan, into Egypt and finally flowing into the Mediterranean Sea at the Nile Delta

So in short the Nile River flows through: Rwanda, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, South Sudan, Sudan and Egypt. To be fair there are also a few smaller, feeder branches that deposit water into the White Nile that have their origins in the Democratic Republic of Congo, although they are not normally considered part of the source. The Blue Nile's source, Lake Tana, is fed by rivers of Eritrea.

Other: Length - 6,650 km (4,130 miles).
Although the Nile is not the largest river in volume, it is one of the longest rivers in the entire world. The Nile runs through the countries of Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia, Uganda, Zaire, Kenya, Eritrea, Tanzania, Rawanda, and Burundi.

ONE of the countries the Nile river ran threw in ancient Egypt was Memphis. :)
