The Rhine is one of the major rivers of Europe. The river begins in the Swiss canton of Graub??nden in the southeastern Swiss Alps. It forms part of the Swiss???Liechtenstein border, then part of the Swiss???Austrian border. From Lake Constance downstream, it forms part of the Swiss???German border. After that, the Rhine defines much of the Franco-German border. It then flows in a mostly northerly direction through the German Rhineland. Finally, the Rhine turns to flow predominantly west to enter the Netherlands, eventually emptying into the North Sea. It drains an area of 185,000??km2.
