Question

Give geographical reason.

Waterways are developed in Brazil.

✓

Answer

Waterways have been developed on a commercial basis in the Amazon River.
Boats ply from Equitos in Peru to the mouth of Amazon River. This river has the longest navigational stretch of approximately 3700 km. The port of Manaus has been developed at the confluence of Negro river and Amazon River.
In addition to this, the Parana River of the south is also suitable for water transport. Coastal shipping is also carried out in the coastal areas.
Thus, we can infer that the waterways are developed in Brazil.
