→ Topography: Most rivers in Brazil originate in the highlands and have steep gradients, creating many waterfalls and rapids that are not suitable for large ships.
→ Location of Rivers: The major river system, the Amazon, flows through dense, inaccessible rainforests where there are very few settlements or industrial centers to use the water transport.
→ Seasonal Variations: Some rivers are seasonal or have a very high velocity of water, making consistent navigation difficult compared to road or rail transport.
