User:Razorflame/List of rivers of Europe

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These are the main rivers of Europe (ecologically, the extreme west of the Palearctic ecozone - which includes Russia in the east). See each article for their tributaries, drainage areas, etc. For clarity, only rivers longer than 100 km (or very significant in another way) are shown in this list. Shorter rivers can be found in the lists by country.
