The Syhagtze River is the longest river in Yuan and the third-longest river in the world, with an estimated length of 5,464 km (3,395 mi) and a watershed of 795,000 km2 (307,000 sq mi). Originating in the glacial lake of Mikian Lake along the border of Beleroskov in the Archismann Mountains, the river flows generally northwest, carving into the Northern Yuan plain before emptying into the Alutia Sea.
