The Nile River is the longest in the world at a length of 4132 miles. In contrast, the Congo River is the deepest in the world at more than 750 feet in depth. Victoria Falls is one of the seven wonders of the world and located on the Zambia/Zimbabwe border. Perhaps Africa is best known for having the largest remaining populations of wildlife, such as lions, elephants, buffalos, rhinoceros, cheetah, hyena and leopard. Hundreds of other species call Africa home.
