You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 184.73.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:41, 2 October 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

Turkmenistan has four major rivers, the Atrek (((lang-tk|Etrek))), Amu Darya (((lang-tk|Amyderýa))), Murghab (((lang-tk|Murgap))), and Tejen.  Turkmenistan has approximately 3,000 rivers, but the vast bulk of them are shorter than 10 kilometers in length, and all but 40 of them are seasonal.<ref name=geo>((cite book|title=Türkmenistanyň Geografiýasy|last=Çaryýew|first=B.|last2=Ilamanow|first2=Ýa.|place=Ashgabat|date=2010|publisher=Türkmenistanyň Bilim ministrligi))</ref>

The following list of major [[river]]s of [[Turkmenistan]] is arranged geographically by [[river basin]].  All of the country's rivers flow into [[endorheic basin]]s; none drains to an [[ocean]].

== [[Caspian Sea]] ==
* [[Atrek River]] (((lang-tk|Etrek))) 
** [[Sumbar River|Sumbar (Sary-suw)]]
** [[Chandyr River]] 
* [[Uzboy River|Uzboy (extinct)]] (((lang-tk|Uzboý))) - a former distributary of the Amu Darya

== [[Karakum Desert]] ==
*[[Hari (Afghanistan)|Tejen River]] (Harirud) - now flows into the [[Karakum Canal]]
*[[Murghab River]] 
**[[Kushk River]] (((lang-tk|Guşgy)))
**Kashkan River (((lang-tk|Kaşan)))

==[[Aral Sea]] basin==
* [[Amu Darya]] (((lang-tk|Amyderýa)))

==Descriptions==
The Amu Darya is Turkmenistan's largest and heaviest flowing river. One-thousand kilometers of its 1,415-kilometer length flows through Turkmenistan. It is the primary water source for the [[Karakum Canal]]. The Murghab River, Turkmenistan's second-largest, is 978 kilometers in length, with 530 kilometers of that in Turkmenistan. Northwest of the city of [[Mary, Turkmenistan|Mary]] the Murghab disappears into the [[Karakum Desert]].The Tejen River is the third largest, and it has been diverted to flow into the Karakum Canal.  The Atrek River rises in the Khorasan Mountains of Iran and sixty percent of its flow occurs in spring and winter.  The Atrek's major tributaries are the Sumbar and Chandyr Rivers.<ref name=geo />

Over 140 small rivers and springs flow from the [[Kopet Dag]] mountain range to the north. The largest of them are the Begmyrat, Gamisuv, Ashgabat, Garasuv, Altyap, Sekizyap, Archman, Chachechay, Manechay, Artyk, Sunche, Borme, Bamy, Goch, and Gyzylarbat rivers.<ref name=geo />

References in Turkmenistan to the so-called "Garagum River" are to the [[Karakum Canal]] (''viz.''), which is not a true river, but an artificial, man-made canal.
