White Nile

River originating in Burundi or Rwanda

The White Nile (Arabic: النيل الأبيض an-nīl al-'abyaḍ) is a river in North and East Africa. It is the less voluminous, but longer (and wider and shallower), of the two major tributaries of the Nile, the larger being the Blue Nile. The name "White" comes from the clay sediment carried in the water which gives the water a pale color.
