The second-longest river in Europe that flows through ten countries from Germany to the Black Sea.
From Latin 'Danuvius,' derived from Celtic root 'don-' meaning water. The name traveled through multiple languages as the river flowed through different empires and civilizations.
The Danube is Europe's most multinational river—it touches more countries than any other river and literally flows through competing histories, which is why so much European culture and conflict centers on controlling its trade routes.
