Tigris

River flowing through Turkey and Iraq (see also Mesopotamia), joining the Euphrates 80 km/50 mi northwest of Basra, where it forms the Shatt-al-Arab; length 1,600 km/1,000 mi.

It rises in Turkey on the southern slopes of the Taurus range, and flows east across Turkey through Diyarbakir, entering Iraq east of Nusaybin. It then flows southeast to Mosul and Samarra and south through Baghdad, eventually flowing into the Gulf. It is navigable to within 50 km/31 mi of Mosul.
