The Snake River flows through one of the deepest gorges in the world, Hell's Canyon.\n\nThe deepest river in the US might be considered the Truckee, which drains Lake Tahoe, the second-deepest lake in the US.\n\nOtherwise I would suspect the Mississippi, but it would depend on the year and season since river level varies so much.  At its deepest it's about 200 feet deep.

Depends on the country you are talking about if its the US it would be the Mississippi or the Hudson, but if it England I would say it is the Thames, the Yangtze in China, in Africa the Nile, in Brazil the amazon, in Pennsylvania state the Ohio river is the most used. I hope this was helpful without more details i don't know

Not sure about on the globe, will come back to that one, but in South Africa it is, Lake Sibhayi.\n\nLake Sibhayi is the largest natural freshwater lake in South Africa, with a surface area of 77km². The lake is also wrongly known as Sibaya or Sibayi.\n\nThe lake is located in the Maputaland, or Umhlabuyalingana, area of KwaZulu-Natal, on the east coast of South Africa.\n\nIt is part of the Greater St. Lucia Wetland Park and is recognised under the Ramsar Convention as a "Wetland of International Importance" on 28 June 1991. In December 1999 The Greater St. Lucia Wetland Park was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.\n\n279 bird species have been identified at Lake Sibhayi.\n\nThe Mseleni Water Project and Mbazwana Water Supply Scheme both get their water from Lake Sibhayi.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Sibhayi

(m)\n\n\nDiscovered by John Speke in 1858\n\nLake Victoria is located in Eastern Africa, resting between the countries of Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania. Covering approximately 68,800 km squared (about the size of Ireland)(3.), Lake Victoria is among the largest of freshwater bodies in the world, second only to Lake Superior. Although the lake has a massive surface area, the depth of the lake is relatively shallow. With an average depth of 40 meters, and a maximum depth nearing 80 meters Lake Victoria contains only about 15% of the total volume of water that is found in its neighboring lake, Lake Tanganyika. \n\nSpeaking in geographical terms, Lake Victoria is extremely young. The lake was formed when a recent up-thrust of the Western side of the Victorian Basin reversed the flow of the rivers that once flowed away from the basin. Scientists are saying that the lake could have been formed as early as 25,000 to 35,000 years ago. Within that time, it is believed that the lake may have dried up entirely between 10,000 to 14,000 years ago. This means that the 300+ know Haplochromines that evolved in Lake Victoria did so in an astoundingly short period of time. Even more amazing, they have all evolved from a single species, and have "less genetic variation than the human species." (Coleman) \n\nDiscovered by John Speke in 1858, Lake Victoria was believed to be the source of the Nile River. Lake Victoria started to experience drastic changes once "Henry Stanley circumnavigated the lake to confirm Speke's claim" (TED Case Studies) in 1875. Within a few decades the English had built a railroad through the area, and started to clear large areas of the lake's forest for farming teas, sugar, tobacco, and cotton. As local populations grew, the people turned to the lake as means to satisfy a growing demand for a tilapia known as Ngege. With the new English gill nets being used, the population of Ngege was quickly decimated to a commercially unsustainable level.

I think Marquette is the widest river....lake is a diff. question.

The deepest point is 560 feet (170 meters).  By the way, you're in WAY the wrong catagory.

The river Niger? As in, the massive river in Africa?\n\nThere's no way of knowing - I would think the indigenous people discovered it thousands of years ago.

wat r trivers? and u can learn about rivers in history. i have a REALLY good social studies teacher who told me that geo and history and very closely related. we learned bout the st lawerence river in history class!\n\nand bout the yangtze river...\nThe Yangtze River is the longest river in Asia and third longest in the world. The headwaters of the Yangtze are situated at an elevation of about 16,000 feet in the Kunlun Mountains in the southwestern section of Qinghai. It flows generally south through Sichuan into Yuanan then northeast and east across central China through Sichuan, Hubei, Auhui, and Juangsu provinces to its mouth, 3,720 miles, in the East China Sea north of Shanghai. The river has over 700 tributaries but the principal tributaries are the Hun, Yalong, Jialing, Min, Tuo Jiang, and Wu Jiang. The climate ranges from 96 degrees in the summer to cold, brisk temperatures in the winter. Precipitation is high due to the height of the mountains.  \nChina covers an area of almost 3.7 million square miles and is the most populous country on earth having more than one billion people. The bordering countries include Mongolia, Kazakhstan, India, Nepal, Burma, Vietnam and Korea. The People's Republic is led by Chinese Communist Party and governed by the State Council. The main language spoken is the Mandarin dialect of Chinese but there are more than 150 languages and dialects spoken throughout the country. Approximately 350 million people inhabit the region of the Yangtze. There is plenty of wildlife along the river as well which include the Tibetan antelopes, Mongolian gazelles, and snow leopards, just to name a few.  \n\nWaters of the Yangtze are often used for rice and wheat irrigation. It also has enormous and inexhaustible hydroelectric resources. In 1995 construction began on the Three Gorges Dam near Yichang and is scheduled for completion in 2009. The dam will measure about 600 feet and about 1.5 miles wide. The dam is expected to help control the flooding of the Yangtze River Valley. The Three Gorges (the Qutang Gorge, the Wuxia Gorge, and Xiling Gorge) will also be the largest electricity generating facility in the world. The hydroelectric generators will provide 1/9 of China's total power output. \n\nThere is a lot of controversy surrounding the construction of the dams. There are 140 villages, 1,600 factories and over 80,000 acres of growable land that will be destroyed. It may also cause animals to become extinct. The area is very prone to earthquakes because it lies directly on a fault line. Actually, the plateau and gorges were created by collision of the Indian-Australian plate, drifting northward, with the Eurasian plate that began over 40 million years ago and continues today. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n      Snaking its way 6,300 kilometres from western China’s Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to the East China Sea, the Yangtze River stretches nine provinces and serves as a drain for 695,000 square miles of land.  It is less in length only to the Amazon and Nile, and spans so many regions that it has acquired half a dozen names.  In the high Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the Tibetans title it Dri Chu—Female Yak River.  The Chinese in the area know it as Tongtian He, Travelling-Through-the-Heavens River.  Where it borders Sichuan and runs through Yunnan, it is referred to as Jinsha Jiang, River of Golden Sand.  Often the word Wanli prefixes the common Chang Jiang (Long River), designating it Ten Thousand Li River. Only in the lower reaches does this great flood go by its name common to foreigners: Yangtze. \n\n        For over two centuries the Yangzte has served as a transportation highway and commercial thoroughfare.  Ocean-going vessels can navigate up the river for 1000 km and steamers can travel as far as Yichang, 1600 km from the sea.  A quarter of China’s ocean-going cargo enters the river between Shanghai and the sea.  Shanghai is known as the gateway to the Yangzte, spanning the Huangpu tributary just south of the

The longest river on Earth is the Nile River in Africa, with a length of 6,695 km (4,160 mi) from its headwaters in Burundi to its mouth at the Mediterranean Sea.
