Otherwise it kind of tastes like smushy old bananas, but after a year of aging that kind of goes away and it is nice. Don’t make wine with coconuts though unless you want to hang out near the bathroom. Coconuts are a natural laxative and it turns out that this property will also make it to your wine.

It's so diverse because Africa is really, really big - about as big as the combined landmasses of China, the United States, India, Japan and much of Europe put together.

      1. The Nile River
      The longest river in the world is different, depending on who you ask. Is it the Nile in Africa or the Amazon in South America? They're comparable in length, but in 2009, a study in the International Journal of Digital Earth determined the Nile to be a bit longer at ​​4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers). The Nile also is recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world's longest river. The Nile has two major tributaries - the White Nile and the Blue Nile, which meet up in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. The Nile drains an area of 1,293,056 square miles (3,349,000 square kilometers) of Sudan, Ethiopia, Egypt, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Eritrea and Democratic Republic of the Congo, before emptying into the Mediterranean Sea.
      2. The Amazon River
      The Amazon River flows through Peru, Colombia and Brazil. Although the Nile is officially the longest river in the world, many disagree with that assessment and insist the Amazon is longer. Certainly, it's the world's largest river based on the enormous volume of water it deposits into the Atlantic Ocean every day; it has a greater output of fresh water than the next seven largest rivers combined. It also has the largest drainage area - 2,400,000 square miles (6,300,000 square kilometers) - which occupies almost 40 percent of the entire continent of South America. Be that as it may, most researchers agree that it is only 4,000 miles (6,500 kilometers) long compared with the Nile's ​​4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers). science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geophysics/9-longest-rivers-in-world.htm

      This is no longer true with modern research methods using advanced measuring equipment. Researchers now say that the Amazon is the largest river by volume as well as by length. The Amazon River is 65 miles (105 kilometers) longer than the Nile. The Amazon River is 4,225 miles (6,800 kilometers) long whereas the Nile is 4132 miles (6650 kilometers) in length.

      The longest river in the world is different, depending on who you ask. Is it the Nile in Africa or the Amazon in South America? They're comparable in length, but in 2009, a study in the International Journal of Digital Earth determined the Nile to be a bit longer at ​​4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers). The Nile also is recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world's longest river. The Nile has two major tributaries - the White Nile and the Blue Nile, which meet up in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. The Nile drains an area of 1,293,056 square miles (3,349,000 square kilometers) of Sudan, Ethiopia, Egypt, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Eritrea and Democratic Republic of the Congo, before emptying into the Mediterranean Sea.
      2. The Amazon River
      The Amazon River flows through Peru, Colombia and Brazil. Although the Nile is officially the longest river in the world, many disagree with that assessment and insist the Amazon is longer. Certainly, it's the world's largest river based on the enormous volume of water it deposits into the Atlantic Ocean every day; it has a greater output of fresh water than the next seven largest rivers combined. It also has the largest drainage area - 2,400,000 square miles (6,300,000 square kilometers) - which occupies almost 40 percent of the entire continent of South America. Be that as it may, most researchers agree that it is only 4,000 miles (6,500 kilometers) long compared with the Nile's ​​4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers).

    questions related to astrology seem out of place for a quiz that purports to test IQ - or common knowledge. Only a guess but I believe fewer than 20% of American and European population pay any attention at all to astrology. Mostly because Astrology is not a serious field of study - mysticism and lore hold very little appeal to the people of a culture that relies heavily upon science, mathematics, history and communications and not very much attention or invested value in fantasy and fiction - with the exception of literary fiction.

      @@TheFrugalMombot I understand your point. I read something once about the Sargasso Sea in the “South Atlantic” when it’s actually in the southern (more or less) North Atlantic. The north and south Atlantic and Pacific oceans are separately labeled on large charts. They are also considered different oceans in nautical texts and tables as well as in literature. Kinda like Europe and Asia being considered two separate continents when they are actually the one land mass of Eurasia. There’s been some controversy about Australia being a continent but I agree with you that, by definition, it’s a continent.

They're hard to find sometimes but when you do, there are videos after videos. No one went through the cracks and no one threw them in a canyon. But somehow, they found a canyon to jump in not knowing it was a canyon, literally because they don't know what a canyon is.

      @@KindnessMelchlsalem Hello. Your Geography teacher obviously did a good job of making sure you would always remember what you'd been taught. But I was a teacher too, and I know I sometimes got things wrong! Besides, when we think about it, we realise that nature does change. For instance, our planet has been through Ice Ages and much hotter periods; even the shape of countries has changed - where I live now, in eastern England, our sandy cliffs are always collapsing as they are much softer than the granite cliffs of Cornwall in the south-west. Even in Cornwall, I remember finding one spring that a grassy hollow where I'd picnicked the year before had collapsed into the sea. Some bits get smaller, some bigger - and I don't only mean bits of me!

      @@TheFrugalMombot 1. The Nile River
      The longest river in the world is different, depending on who you ask. Is it the Nile in Africa or the Amazon in South America? They're comparable in length, but in 2009, a study in the International Journal of Digital Earth determined the Nile to be a bit longer at ​​4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers). The Nile also is recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world's longest river. The Nile has two major tributaries - the White Nile and the Blue Nile, which meet up in Khartoum, the capital of Sudan. The Nile drains an area of 1,293,056 square miles (3,349,000 square kilometers) of Sudan, Ethiopia, Egypt, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Eritrea and Democratic Republic of the Congo, before emptying into the Mediterranean Sea.
      2. The Amazon River
      The Amazon River flows through Peru, Colombia and Brazil. Although the Nile is officially the longest river in the world, many disagree with that assessment and insist the Amazon is longer. Certainly, it's the world's largest river based on the enormous volume of water it deposits into the Atlantic Ocean every day; it has a greater output of fresh water than the next seven largest rivers combined. It also has the largest drainage area - 2,400,000 square miles (6,300,000 square kilometers) - which occupies almost 40 percent of the entire continent of South America. Be that as it may, most researchers agree that it is only 4,000 miles (6,500 kilometers) long compared with the Nile's ​​4,132 miles (6,650 kilometers).

      This is no longer true with modern research methods using advanced measuring equipment. Researchers now say that the Amazon is the largest river by volume as well as by length. The Amazon River is 65 miles (105 kilometers) longer than the Nile. The Amazon River is 4,225 miles (6,800 kilometers) long whereas the Nile is 4132 miles (6650 kilometers) in length.
