Kama River

The Kama is the largest left-bank tributary of the Volga, about 1,800 km long, rising in the uplands of Udmurtia in Russia and flowing past Perm to join the Volga below Kazan. The land around its confluence with the Volga was the heartland of Volga Bulgaria, and its upper basin, the land of the Komi-Permyaks, was long a source of furs for Novgorod and Moscow.
