== History == The project was started by Alex Jarrett in February 1996 because he "liked the idea of visiting a location represented by a round number such as [[43rd parallel north|43Β°00'00"N]] [[72nd meridian west|72Β°00'00"W]]. What would be there? Would other people have recognized this as a unique spot?"<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.confluence.org/infodcp.php#history| title = Project History}}</ref> As of October 2024, 6,668 (40.7%) of 16,349 primary confluences have been visited, covering 195 countries and territories.<ref>{{Cite web | url=http://confluence.org/projectstats.php |title = DCP: Project Statistics (2024)}}</ref>
