The Euphrates River is 1,725 miles long, beginning in the Armenian plateau of Turkey. In Iraq, it flows across land laid down by alluvial deposits, a surface that is very flat. As far as 300 miles north of the Arabian/Persian Gulf, the surface of the land rises only 60 feet above the level of the Gulf.

The Tigris River is 1,150 miles long and begins on the Armenian plateau in Turkey. In Iraq, it receives additional water from four important tributaries: the Greater Zab, the Lesser Zab, the Adhem and the Diyala. As a result, the Tigris is more subject to catastrophic flooding than the Euphrates.
