Photo by @brentstirton / Tired men bathe in the warm waters of the Niger River after unloading goods in the port of Timbuktu. The Niger is the third-longest river in Africa, exceeded only by the Nile and the Congo. Nigeria and Niger both take their name from this great river. The Niger is the principal river of West Africa, extending about 2,600 miles (4,200km). This river is historically key to trans-Saharan trade, fueling the wealth of great empires over the centuries. A number of trading ports along the river, places like Timbuktu, became centers of learning and culture. Trade along the Niger brought Islam to the region in the 14th century, and it remains a central religion for the region.
