Map showing the Correct names of the border Rivers of Suriname.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The border Rivers of Suriname are very often wrong on most international maps. the Border with Guyana is formed by the Corantijn (Corentyne) and the Boven-Corantijn (Upper Corentyne). The Guyanese call the Upper-Corentyne the "New River" and they call the Coeroeni River the Corentyne. This is misleading and incorrect. The border with French Guiana is formed by the Marowijne, Lawa and marowini River.
Español: Los ríos fronterizos de Surinam suelen aparecer incorrectos en la mayoría de los mapas internacionales. La frontera con Guyana está formada por Corantijn (Corentyne) y Boven-Corantijn (Upper Corentyne). Los guyaneses llaman al Alto Corentyne el "Río Nuevo" y al río Coeroeni llaman Corentyne. Esto es engañoso e incorrecto. La frontera con la Guayana Francesa está formada por los ríos Marowijne, Lawa y Marowini.
Nederlands: De grensrivieren van Suriname staan vaak verkeerd op de meeste internationale kaarten. de grens met Guyana wordt gevormd door de Corantijn (Corantijn) en de Boven-Corantijn (Boven-Corantijn). De Guyanezen noemen de Boven-Corentijn de "Nieuwe Rivier" en de Coeroeni-rivier de Corentijn. Dit is misleidend en onjuist. De grens met Frans-Guyana wordt gevormd door de rivieren Marowijne, Lawa en Marowini.
Français : Les rivières frontalières du Suriname sont très souvent erronées sur la plupart des cartes internationales. la frontière avec la Guyane est formée par le Corantijn (Corentyne) et le Boven-Corantijn (Upper Corentyne). Les Guyanais appellent le Haut-Corentyne le « Nouveau Fleuve » et le fleuve Coeroeni le Corentyne. C’est trompeur et incorrect. La frontière avec la Guyane française est formée par les rivières Marowijne, Lawa et Marowini.
