The largest lake in Africa is Lake Victoria. This vast freshwater lake is bordered by three countries: Tanzania, Uganda, and Kenya. Covering an area of approximately 68,800 square kilometers, it contributes significantly to the livelihoods of millions of people through fishing and agriculture and serves as a critical water source. Lake Victoria is also vital for biodiversity, harboring numerous species of fish, especially the endemic Nile perch. However, it faces environmental challenges, including pollution and invasive species.
