Congo-Nile Divide
The Congo-Nile Divide (or Nile Congo Watershed) is the continental divide that separates the drainage basins of the Nile and Congo rivers.
It is about long.
There are several geologically and geographically distinct sections between the point on the border between the Central African Republic and South Sudan where the Nile and Congo basins meet the Chad Basin, and the southern point in Tanzania to the southwest of Lake Victoria where the boundaries of the Nile and Congo basins diverge.
The people who live along the divide are diverse, mainly speaking Central Sudanic languages in the northern parts and Bantu languages further south.
The European colonialists used the Congo-Nile divide as a boundary between British-controlled territories to the east and territories controlled by the French and Belgians to the west.
This was decided at a time when few Europeans had visited the area, which had yet to be mapped.
It separated members of the ethnic groups that live on both sides of the divide.
