Watersheds are also known as drainage basins. The most common means to seperate watersheds is in the form of ridges and hills. The largest watershed in the United States is the Mississippi River which drains water from the Midwest to the Gulf of Mexico.
The three watersheds that Virginia waters end up going to are the Chesapeake Bay Watershed, the Gulf of Mexico Watershed, and the Atlantic Ocean Watershed. These watersheds encompass a complex network of rivers and streams that drain into these larger bodies of water.
