O Nilo é o segundo maior rio do mundo.Situado no nordeste do continente africano, sua nascente está a sul da linha do Equador e sua foz ocorre no mar Mediterrâneo. Ele segue essa trajetória por 30 milhões de anos. A sua bacia hidrográfica ocupa uma área de 3 349 000 km², abrangendo Uganda, Tanzânia, Ruanda, Quénia, República Democrática do Congo, Burundi, Sudão, Sudão do Sul, Etiópia e Egito. A partir da sua fonte mais remota, situada no "Nyungwe National Park" do Rwanda, o Nilo tem um comprimento de 7 088 km. É formado pela confluência de três outros rios, o Nilo Branco (Bahr-el-Abiad), o Nilo Azul (Bahr-el-Azrak) e o rio Atbara. O Nilo Azul (Bahr-el-Azrak) nasce no lago Tana (Etiópia), confluindo com o Nilo Branco em Cartum, capital do Sudão.
