Explanation

The Aswan High Dam was built on the Nile River in southern Egypt, near the town of Aswan. Completed in 1970, it created Lake Nasser, one of the world's largest reservoirs. The dam provides irrigation, electricity, and flood control. The Amazon flows through South America, the Congo is in Africa (but far from Egypt), and the Indus flows through Pakistan and India.
