The Congo River is a river in Panama.
Sharing its name with Africa’s second-longest river but unrelated geographically or hydrologically, this Panamanian waterway forms part of the country’s extensive network of rivers that drain both towards the Caribbean and Pacific coasts. Panama’s topography, defined by a mountainous spine running the length of the isthmus, creates numerous short, steep watersheds that have shaped both the country’s ecology and its history as a land bridge between continents and oceans.
