Rivers of Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (425 words)
The main river in Ireland is the River Shannon, 386 km (240 mi), the longest river in either Britain or Ireland, which separates the boggy midlands of Ireland from the West of Ireland.
The Viking sea-king, Thormodr Helgason, used his base on the west coast to raid the length of the River Shannon from Lough Derg to Lough Ree, pillaging ecclesiastical settlements.
The rivers are listed in clockwise order starting from the Foyle at Derry, and for convenience are divided by jurisdiction and by the sea into which they each drain.
