The Somme river, known for: The river is perhaps most famous as a result of the World War I Battle of the Somme (July 1, 1916). The great battles which finally stopped the German advance in the Spring Offensive of 1918 were fought around the valley of the Somme in places like Villers Bretonneux, which marked the beginning of the end of the war.

Rhine and Rhône both spring to mind; there are also the Rance and the Roya. These are FLEUVES - rivers which flow into the sea. Among RIVIERES, tributaries, there is another Rhône and another Rance, and also see http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_des_rivi%C3%A8res_de_France
