Detailed explanation-1: -The Tiber is the third-longest river in Italy, rising in the Apennine Mountains in Emilia-Romagna and flowing 406 kilometres through Tuscany, Umbria and Lazio, where it is joined by the river Aniene, to the Tyrrhenian Sea, between Ostia and Fiumicino.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Tiber flows from the Apennine Mountains through Rome and into the Tyrrhenian Sea-part of the Mediterranean Sea off the western coast of Italy. Before the days of early Rome, the river was known as Albula, which means “white” in Latin. This name came from the milky white color of the water in the river.
Detailed explanation-3: -The two principal rivers are the Tiber (252 miles long), which follows a southerly course along the western base of the Umbrian-Marchigian range before flowing through Rome to the Tyrrhenian Sea, and the Arno (155 miles), which flows westerly from the Tuscan-Emilian range through Florence to the Ligurian Sea.
