In Which Country Tocantins River is Found?
The Tocantins is a river in Brazil, the central fluvial artery of the country. It runs from south to north for about 2,640 km. It is not really a branch of the Amazon River, although usually so considered, since its waters flow into the Atlantic Ocean alongside those of the Amazon. It flows through four Brazilian states (Goiás, Tocantins, Maranhão and Pará) and gives its name to one of Brazil’s newest states.
