The longest river in Europe, flowing through Russia and emptying into the Caspian Sea, historically important to Russian culture.
From Russian 'Волга' (Volga), possibly from the Balto-Finnic root meaning 'wetness' or 'moisture,' one of Europe's most significant geographical and cultural landmarks.
The Volga River has been called the 'soul of Russia'—it's so central to Russian identity that it appears in countless folk songs, poems, and paintings, and historically was Russia's main highway for trade and communication.
