		Because the river’s many large tributaries (including the Lomami, Kasai, Lulonga, Ubangi, Aruwimi, Itimbiri, and Mongala rivers) drain areas with rainy seasons that alternate on either side of the equator, the Congo has a fairly constant flow of water throughout the year.

		The Congo River is tidal all the way to Boma, some 100 km from the mouth of the river.
