Amazon The Amazon is the worlds largest river, it spans the borders of eight countries and supply's one fifth of the earths fresh water. It has the worlds highest diversity of birds and freshwater fish. It is the planets largest and most luxurious rainforest in which, amazingly lives more than one third of all the species in the world.
