The Bosna is the third longest river in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and is considered one of the country's three major internal rivers, along with the Neretva and Vrbas. The river flows for 271 kilometers (168 miles) and is found only in Bosnia. It has no foreign variations of its name, and is known as the Bosna in all three of the country's official languages, although it is sometimes spelled Vasna. In Roman times the river was called the Basana, and historians think this is the origin of the word Bosnia.
