This is very, very easy!!! Here, I'll show you how...

This is all I did... I copied 'Adige River ' and pasted it into google and pressed 'search'. The second site listed had all the information you would ever want. So, I copied it here for you to see. I know you can do this by yourself and it won't take long. Have fun!

'The Adige (Italian: Adige; German: Etsch; Ladin: Adiç or Adesc, Latin: Athesis; in Trentino: Ades; in Veneto: Adexe) is a river with its source in the Alpine region of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol near the Italian border with Austria and Switzerland. At 410 km in length, 220 located in the province of Bolzano, it is the second longest river in Italy, after the Po River with 652 km.

The river flows out of the artificial Alpine Lake Resia, located at the Resia Pass (1504 m) close to the borders with Austria and Switzerland above the Inn valley. The lake is known for the church tower that marks the site of the former village of Curon Antica (Alt Graun) that was abandoned and flooded in 1953 when the dam was finished. Near Glurns, the Rom River from the Swiss Val Müstair joins.

The Adige then runs eastbound through the Vinschgau (Venosta Valley) to Merano where it is met by the Passirio river from the north. South of Bolzano, the Eisack (Isarco) joins the river that is now heading south through a valley that always has been one of the major routes through the Alps, leading to and from the Resia Pass and the Brenner Pass, at 1370 m considered the easiest of the main Alpine passes.

The Chiusa di Salorno narrows at Salorno marking the southern-most part of the German-speaking area. Thus, the Adige was mentioned in the Lied der Deutschen of 1841 as the southern border of an expanded Germany. This song was made the national anthem of Germany in 1922, after the Adige had been ceded to Italy.

The point of something like this homework,
is to teach you how to find out information.
You already have a computer obviously.
In my day we had to go to the library,
& look up dictionaries & an encyclopedia.
Try Yahoo, or Google, or Wikipedia, as shown below.
