Belgium is a country known for its extensive river network, with a total of 1,672 rivers throughout the country. The two primary rivers in Belgium are the Scheldt and the Meuse (or Maas in Dutch), which both originate in France and flow through Belgium towards the North Sea.
The Scheldt river is the longest river in Belgium, stretching 350 kilometers from its source in France until it reaches the North Sea in the Netherlands. The river passes through cities such as Ghent and Antwerp, and is a major navigational route for cargo ships.
The Meuse river has a total length of 950 kilometers, and flows through France, Belgium, and the Netherlands. In Belgium, the river passes through Namur and Liège before entering the Netherlands. The Meuse is also an important navigational route for cargo ships and is used for recreation activities such as kayaking and fishing.
Apart from these two main rivers, Belgium also has many smaller rivers and canals, such as the Leie and Dender rivers, and the Brussels-Scheldt Canal. The rivers and canal systems play an essential role in the country's economy and transportation system.
