The Potomac, Rappahannock, York, and James Rivers flow primarily through the state of Virginia and parts of Maryland in the United States. The Potomac River forms part of the boundary between Maryland and Virginia, eventually flowing into the Chesapeake Bay. The Rappahannock River flows southeast into the bay, while the York River also empties into the Chesapeake Bay. The James River is the longest river in Virginia, flowing eastward to the bay as well.
The four main rivers that flow into the Chesapeake Bay are the Potomac, the Rappahannock, the York, and the James.
