The Nile River empties into the Mediterranean Sea in the direction of flow from South to North. It is a common mistaken belief that water will flow from North to South because of the Earth’s rotation. It is not the case for Nile River since it is located at the elevated land of a hill. It is natural that the water flow must be from top down to the bottom. The Nile River will flood only once a year and its flow will start at Lake Victoria down to the Mediterranean coast.
