Which pair of rivers flows near Zimbabwe?

Which pair of rivers flows near Zimbabwe?

• A. Nile and Niger
• B. Zambezi and Limpopo
• C. Congo and Ubangi
• D. Orange and Vaal

Answer: (B)

Knowing Zimbabwe’s location in southern Africa helps identify nearby rivers. The Zambezi runs along Zimbabwe’s northern edge and even forms part of the border with Zambia, famous for Victoria Falls. The Limpopo lies to the south, shaping Zimbabwe’s boundary toward South Africa and Mozambique. Together, these two rivers are the major waterways closest to and influential for Zimbabwe. The other river pairs are located in different parts of Africa (north, central, or farther west/south), so they don’t flow near Zimbabwe.
