Ah, those... The one in the top-left corner is a lake; the other is a strange fork I had to make because I couldn't decide between putting a port or a cascade there, so decided to put the two. Don't know how plausible it is, really, but I believe someone, somewhere, could find a resonable explanation
Bill Stickers is innocent! It isn't Bill's fault that he was hanging out in the wrong place.

You're okay with the triangular inland-river delta, krinnen. Check out the Nile River (Bahr al Jabal) between Malakal and Bentiu, Sudan:
You need to remember that the Nile flows NORTH, Bahr al Jabal is flowing north into the White Nile.

Yes, and south of that, just above where the Bahr al Jabal is labelled on that map, it splits into two streams (the Bahr al Jabal and the unlabelled Bahr el Zeraf), which both meet up just west of Malakal, forming a triangle.
Wow - call me blind, but I just can't see it... Any better map references?
