<Tr> <Th> Length </Th> <Td> 80 km (50 mi) </Td> </Tr> <P> The Rubicon (Latin: Rubicō, Italian: Rubicone pronounced (rubiˈkone)) is a shallow river in northeastern Italy, just south of Ravenna . The same name was given to a river that was famously crossed by Julius Caesar in 49 BCE . While it has not been proven, historians generally agree that the two rivers are indeed one and the same; this was not always the case . </P> <P> The modern - day river flows for around 80 km (50 mi) from the Apennine Mountains to the Adriatic Sea through the south of the Emilia - Romagna region, between the towns of Rimini and Cesena . The Latin word Rubicō comes from the adjective rubeus, meaning "red". The river was so named because its waters are colored red by mud deposits . </P> <P> During the Roman republic, the river Rubicon marked the boundary between the Roman province of Cisalpine Gaul to the northeast and Italy proper, controlled directly by Rome and its socii (allies), to the south . On the north - western side, the border was marked by the river Arno, a much wider and more important waterway, which flows westward from the Apennine Mountains (it and the Rubicon rise not far from each other) into the Tyrrhenian Sea . </P>
