"Hister" is the Latin name for the Danube River. Nostradamus mixed Latin into his quatrains.
At least some of Nostradamus' passes regarding Hister clearly refer to a river.
For example,
"They are said to have come from the Rhine and from Hister" 4 68
The Rhine is a German River and so is the "Hister".

as far as i remember, Nostradamus wrote everything primarily in a form of "old French" and mixed other langues in with it as well... in addition to all the metaphors and symbolism.
it translated poorly into contemporary French, much less any other language.
believing in anything Nostradamus wrote is like believing in the Latoya Jackson Psychic Hotline.
