	Germany
		Among the tributaries of the Rhine in western Germany are the Lahn, Lippe, Main, Mosel, Neckar, and Ruhr rivers.
		The warmest summer temperatures are found in the Rhine Valley and the coldest winter temperatures in the Alps of the far south.
		The most important is the Rhine, which forms part of the borders with Switzerland and France before flowing into the Netherlands.

	Rhine River History and Maps
		The Rhine begins as a tumultuous Alpine stream churning through deep gorges, and although the river's flow is moderated somewhat as it passes through the Lake of Constance (Bodensee), the river remains a torrent westward to Basel.
		The Alsace region of France that borders the Rhine is a long strip of land centered south of Strasbourg and around the town of Colmar.
		Some of the main tributaries are: the Mosselle (Mosel), that runs south west bordering Luxembourg and on into France; the Neckar that flows south east at Manneheim on through Heidelburg, Germany; the Main, flowing east and south from Mainz through Frankfurt, Germany.

	Introduction to Germany
		Other concentrations are to be found in the Rhine-Main area around Frankfurt, Wiesbaden and Mainz, the Rhine-Neckar industrial region around Mannheim and Ludwigshafen, the industrial area around Stuttgart, and the catchment areas of Bremen, Cologne, Dresden, Hamburg, Leipzig, Munich and Nuremberg/Fuerth.
		These densely populated regions contrast with very thinly populated areas such as the heathlands and moorlands of the North German Plain, parts of the Eifel Mountains, the Bavarian Forest, the Upper Palatinate, the March of Brandenburg, and large parts of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
		At the same time, Germany faces its own unique problem of bringing its eastern area up to scratch after 45 years of communist rule.

	CyberNet Denis: Neckar River
		Rising in the Black Forest, the Neckar is a main tributary of the Rhine river, entering at Mannheim.
		At the famous and romantic old university of Heildelberg the Neckar enters the Rhine plain, and at Mannerheim it flows in the Rhine.
		It then passes the former free Imperial city of Heilbronn, known to tourists as the town of Kathchen, heroine of Kleist's play "Katchen von Heilbronn." Between Heilbronn and Bad Wimpfen the valley of the Neckar becomes wider to accommodate not only the industrial area of Neckarsulm but also vineyards, orchards and fields of vegetables.

	Germany - Drainage
		Of the Rhine's three most important tributaries, the Moselle River drains parts of the Rheinish Uplands, the Main drains areas between the Central German Uplands and the Franconian Alb, and the Neckar River drains the area between the Black Forest and the Swabian Alb.
		Because these rivers keep the Rhine high during the winter and because melting snow in the Alps keeps it high during the spring and summer, the river generally has a high steady flow, which accounts for its being the busiest waterway in Europe.
