Answer 2

The Nile is the longest river.

Although it is possible to find a route from the source of the Amazon to the sea that is longer than the Nile, it involves going up a side river and then down to the sea by a different river called the Tocantins. This isn't considered to be part of the Amazon, so it's a cheat.

Answer 3

The Nile, 6.690 km, is the longest river in the world. And Egypt is one of its gifts.

"They said also that the first man who became king of Egypt was Min; and that in his time all Egypt except the district of Thebes was a swamp, and none of the regions were then above water which now lie below the lake of Moiris, to which lake it is a voyage of seven days up the river from the sea: and I thought that they said well about the land; for it is manifest in truth even to a person who has not heard it beforehand but has only seen, at least if he have understanding, that the Egypt to which the Hellenes come in ships is a land which has been won by the Egyptians as an addition, and that it is a gift of the river" Herodotus
