Answer: Ethopia which is in Africa

Explanation:A simmering dispute over who owns the waters of the River Nile is heating up. From its headwaters in Ethiopia and the central African highlands to the downstream regional superpower Egypt, the Nile flows through 10 nations. But by a quirk of British colonial history, only Ethopia has any rights to its water. Egypt and its neighboring countries has no rights over the river Nile

Answer: Egypt

Step-by-step explanation:

The Nile River flows through Rwanda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Sudan, and Egypt. However, Egypt has unchallenged in its full right over the river throughout thousands of years. And that right has been backed up by a water treaty from colonial times, as well as an agreement with Sudan (1959).
