The Danube River is the second-longest river in Europe, stretching approximately 2,850 km (1,770 miles) from its source in Germany to its mouth at the Black Sea. It flows through 10 countries—more than any other river in the world—including Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Ukraine.

Key Features of the Danube River:
• Source: The river originates in the Black Forest of Germany, where the Brigach and Breg rivers converge in Donaueschingen.
• Mouth: It empties into the Black Sea, forming the Danube Delta, one of Europe’s most significant wetlands.
• Major Cities Along the Danube: Vienna (Austria), Budapest (Hungary), Belgrade (Serbia), Bratislava (Slovakia), and Bucharest (Romania), among others.
• Tributaries: Some major tributaries include the Inn, Drava, Sava, Tisza, and Prut rivers.
• Economic Importance: The Danube is a key trade and transport route, with the Danube River Basin supporting agriculture, fishing, and hydroelectric power.
• Danube Delta: A UNESCO World Heritage site, home to diverse wildlife, including over 300 bird species and rare fish.
• Cultural & Historical Significance: The river has played a crucial role in European history, serving as a natural border for empires, including the Roman and Austro-Hungarian empires.
