There has for long been disagreement whether the Amazon or the Nile is the world's longest river.
Nile 6,690 km in Africa
Amazon in South America has 6,387KM measuring till the North of Marajo Island in the Amazon Delta
But has 6,762 Km if measured till the south of Marajo Island in the Amazon Delta
