Thousands of miles long!

Imagine floating down 4,132 MILES of water, like Osiris did in his coffin, but that's not exactly normal. However, the Nile River is really 4,132 miles long, 10 miles wide. This river flows all through Egypt. Its also surrounded by valleys, crops, and you guessed it! Pyramids are just east of the river! The Nile River usually flows northward-with some uncontrolled flowing. Flows towards the Mediterranean Sea. It also makes up and percentage of Egypt's total land mass!  It starts at the Valley and ends at the Delta.
