This article lists rivers which are (at least partially) located in Germany. Rivers that flow into the sea are sorted geographically, along the coast. Rivers that flow into other rivers are sorted by the proximity of their points of confluence to the sea (the lower in the list, the more upstream). Some rivers (the Meuse, for example) do not flow through Germany themselves, but they are mentioned for having German tributaries. They appear in ''italics''. For clarity, only rivers that are longer than (or have longer tributaries) are included. An alphabetical list of all German rivers that have an article in Wikipedia appears at the end of the article.

Rivers Of The Karlovy Vary Region
A river is a natural flowing watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an ocean, sea, lake or another river. In some cases, a river flows into the ground and becomes dry at the end of its course without reaching another body of water. Small rivers can be referred to using names such as creek, brook, rivulet, and rill. There are no official definitions for the generic term river as applied to geographic features, although in some countries or communities a stream is defined by its size. Many names for small rivers are specific to geographic location; examples are "run" in some parts of the United States, "burn" in Scotland and northeast England, and "beck" in northern England. Sometimes a river is defined as being larger than a creek, but not always: the language is vague. Rivers are part of the water cycle. Water generally collects in a river from precipitation through a drainage basin from surface runoff and other sources such as groundwater recharge, springs ...

List Of Rivers Of The Czech Republic
This is a list of rivers of the Czech Republic. Naming conventions Czech language distinguishes between larger (river) and smaller (stream, creek, brook etc.) watercourses; the respective nouns being '' řeka'' (feminine, "river") and '' potok'' (masculine, "stream"). River names are mostly self-standing nouns and not accompanied with the generic word for river (except when confusion might arose because name is shared with some towns, e.g. Jihlava; in such cases one sometimes says ''řeka Jihlava''). In contrast, stream names mostly consist of two words because they contain an adjective (usually stemming from physical properties (e.g. ''Černý potok''-"Black Stream"), usage (e.g. ''Mlýnský potok'' – "Mill Stream") or derived from location through which it flows (e.g. ''Rakovnický potok''-"Rakovník Stream")). These two-word names are used as a whole, the word ''potok'' making an inseparable part of the name (i.e. ''Mlýnský potok'', not just ''Mlýnský''). There are also ...

Germany Germany's ''Bundesstraßen'' network has a total length of about 40,000 km. German ''Bundesstraßen'' are labelled with rectangular yellow signs with black numerals, as opposed to the white-on-blue markers of the ''Autobahn'' controlled-access highways.

One distinguishing characteristic between German ''Bundesstraßen'' and ''Autobahnen'' is that there usually is a general 100 km/h (62 mph) s ...
