Answer:

The Amazon River is 3,980 miles (6,400 kilometers) long, according to the U.S. National Park Service. It is, however, the world's largest river by volume and contains 20 percent of the Earth's freshwater, according to the National Science Foundation.

The largest river in the world is the Amazon River.

It's located in south America and is roughly

3,900 miles long and is around 25 miles wide.

The largest river in the world is actually

not the Amazon River, it's the Nile River.

We don't say it's the longest in the world because

it's way less voluminous than the Amazon River.
