Home›Rivers›Flows ThroughBrowse ByFlows ThroughThis dimension names the countries or regions a body of water actually flows through. A river, Wikipedia notes, "is a natural stream of fresh water that flows on land or inside caves towards another body of water at a lower elevation, such as an ocean, lake, or another river," and that path often crosses several borders. Browsing by where a body of water flows through groups it with the places it actually touches.FactsFlows ThroughSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonTypical
