The water that flows to the Gulf of Mexico primarily comes from rivers like the Mississippi, which drains a vast area of the central United States. In contrast, water flowing to the Atlantic Ocean is fed by numerous rivers on the eastern side of the continent, such as the Hudson and the Delaware. The division between these two watersheds is marked by the Continental Divide, which determines the direction of water flow across the landscape.
