The Rhine (exactly 211.8 km in length farther from the source to the mouth) is the tenth Italian river by length and size of the basin, but the sixth and length, and by extension of the basin from those which flow directly into sea. Born in Tuscany, Pistoia and when considered over the entire length is by far the most important waterway in the Emilia-Romagna, and the only major region that is not a tributary of the Po river basin is total of 5,040 km ² (of which 2,540 of the mountain basin) - the data, supplied by the Rhine, and therefore official, is higher than those of 4626 or 4630 or 4690 can be found in the literature current geographic.
is the greater length, basin area and average water flow at the mouth from those that flow into the Adriatic south of the Po
The name Reno Celtic origin and means basically "runs", "flowing water" and the same derivation used to baptize the much larger (and namesake in Italian) German river.
Its catchment area, which grows in the province of Pistoia, Prato, Florence, Bologna (I covered almost the entire province, except small portions of the mountains, hills, and especially the Persicetano and Crevalcore that bestow the Panaro and therefore, the Po), Modena, Ferrara, Ravenna, is inhabited by nearly 2 million people and includes areas with a high concentration of industry (eg the Bologna metropolitan area) and highly developed and evolved from the agricultural point of view (eg the district of Lugo Massa Lombarda-for the production of fruit and jam); historically has always been an invaluable hinge between the North and South of Italy, and especially its valley, except for the initial stretch more mountainous (essentially inaccessible until the mid-nineteenth century), has always been an easy passage between the Po and the Arno Valley.
