Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index The region of Basel-Alsace-Baden (Dreiländereck Switzerland-France-Germany) is called "Regio TriRhena" (sometimes also: "Regio TriRhenia"). TriRhena means "Three Rhines", but in this particular case, you could translate it with "the three regions that border (to) the Rrhine". Originally, it was a strategic union of the separate economic areas in that region with a council that was founded in 1995. But the expression is also widely used in the local press to describe the region of the Upper Rhine itself. This article is from Wikipedia.
