The Tigris and the Euphrates rivers are each a river in its own right, however they join each other in the Middle East. Their history is part of the history of Mesopotamia. The Tigris flows 1,150 miles from the mountains of east Turkey, through Iraq, navigable to Baghdad. The Euphrates also begins in eastern Turkey and flows 1,700 miles through Syria and Iraq and thence into the Persian Gulf. It floods twice a year.
There is no specific name for the land that lies specifically between the east bank of the Euphrates and the west bank of the Tigris. The general area around both rivers is called Mesopotamia.
