Rivers sorted by 'greatest adjacent population' or 'greatest gdp moved through'. I feel like this is a meaningful way to think about rivers in a geopolitical/historical perspective. It would highlight the 'classics' the big chinese and indian rivers, the nile(cairo, khartoum), the mesopotamian potamians(mosul, baghdad, basra), the old roman border rivers (danube and rhein, vienna, budapest, bratislava..). It is an untraditional though pretty objective.
