The Huang River was called China's Sorrow because of its flooding and its surrounding. Loess, the soil surrounding the Huang, would fall into the river, producing natural dams through deposition, which then cause the river to elevate and change its course. This results in floodings, which were quite unpredictable. They could take away the lives of farmers, as well as crops. Millions have been lost to the Huang through its 1500 or so floods from the last few millennia to today. The river's course has changed majorly 5 times from 602 BCE to today.
