2.5. Hydrogeography

The area of the CR is divided in three major drainage basins - the North Sea, the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea. Vast majority of rivers in the CR springs here and flows out of the state borders. The CR is the source area for waters of major European rivers - Labe (Elbe), Odra (Oder) nad Dunaj/Danube (does not flows through the area of CR).
