Kura

The Kura River, which runs through Azerbaijan, Turkey, and Georgia, is the country's longest river, with a total length of 941 miles. The Kura River rises in northwestern Turkey, flows through Georgia, and then through Azerbaijan, before draining into the Caspian Sea. The Aras, the Kura River's primary tributary, is Azerbaijan's second-largest river, with a length of 666 miles, and borders Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Iran. It drains the south side of the Lesser Caucasus Mountains and is shared by Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Iran. Before flowing into the Caspian Sea, the Kura River meets its biggest tributary, the Aras River, in Azerbaijan.

The Kura River flows into the Caspian Sea after meeting its biggest tributary, the Aras River, in Azerbaijan. The Kura valley has been populated for thousands of years, with agriculture being founded more than 4,500 years ago. As a consequence, vast civilizations formed, but by 1200 CE, they had been substantially diminished owing to invasions and natural calamities. Increased human usage harmed forests and grasslands, resulting in catastrophic floods during the twentieth century. The river is currently dammed and used for hydroelectric power, and it is moderately contaminated by large industrial districts.
