River is the general name given to large streams, especially in terms of width and amount of water, which usually pour into seas, lakes, or other large streams. It is also seen that it disappears under the ground or completely dries up before reaching any additional water. Large streams are called rivers.

The waters of a river usually flow in a natural channel we call a bed. While some large rivers flow in flat areas such as plains, they sometimes or continuously overflow both river banks and pour in a flood-like manner. The part where the river starts, that is, the source, is called the upper river, while the direction of the river's flow is called the lower river.

Rivers are among the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. Although rivers and lakes contain 600 times less water, they host more fish species than the seas.

The rivers feed us. Freshwater fishing provides 550 million people today whose diet is predominantly fish-based. Rivers are the cradle of our civilization. The oldest cultures; originated on the banks of rivers such as the Euphrates and Tigris, the Nile, the Indus, and the Yellow River.

Dams have ruptured two-thirds of the world's major rivers. Dams trap one-sixth, or 7,000 cubic kilometers, of water flowing from rivers.

The rivers that have shaped our planet have created some of the planet's most beautiful landscapes. Think of the Grand Canyon, Iguaçu, and Victoria Falls!

The rivers ensure the survival of the fish population in the seas. Because of the nutrients carried by the rivers to the sea, 80 percent of the fish caught in the world come from the continental shelf.

Rivers unite us. About 276 rivers flow through the territory of more than one country, and their basins cover almost half of the world's land surface.

Rivers perform essential tasks such as providing water to people and regulating the ecosystem in the places they pass through. Rivers are estimated to be 10-15 times more valuable per hectare than land and sea-based ecosystems.
