These are the main
river s ofBelgium .All of Belgium is drained into the
North Sea , except the municipality ofMomignies (Macquenoise), which is drained by theOise river into theEnglish Channel . Rivers that flow into the sea are sorted alphabetically. Rivers that flow into other rivers are sorted by the proximity of their points of confluence to the sea. Some rivers (e.g. Moselle, Rhine, Seine) do not flow through Belgium themselves, but they are mentioned for having Belgian tributaries. They are given in "italics". Below, the Belgian rivers are given alphabetically. See also . If the names are different in French, Dutch or German, they are given in parentheses (only given if the river comes into French, Dutch or German-speaking territory).
