By basin

In order to provide more than just a list, but also show the hierarchy of waterways as realistically as possible, the list has been constructed, with the help of bullets and indents, showing the sequence from river mouth to source. The number of indents corresponds to the river's position in the sequence.

Tributaries are shown orographically as either a left (l) or right (r) tributary of the next waterway in the downstream direction.
