The left side is (水 shuǐ) ‘water’.
The simple-form character 汉 (5 strokes) is an abbrev. of the full-form character 漢 (14 strokes), replacing the full-form component 𦰩 (11 strokes) with 又 (2 strokes), as in 难/難.
The right side  or 又 is short for 暵 hàn (‘parched’) phonetic. Compare 艰() jiān, () nán, and 叹() tàn.
Note: For simplified 又/𦰩 replacement, cf. 叹/嘆, 汉/漢, 难/難, 摊/攤, 滩/灘.

The Shuōwén Seal form of 漢(􁶼𤁉) hàn ‘(river name)’ combines 氵(水 shuǐ) ‘water’, and 難(􀩌𩁘) nán ‘difficult’ (abbrev. phonetic); formerly wr. (􁶽), with 或(􂍙) over 大(􁰋), signifying the river valley of the great kingdom (或/國/国).
Note: 汉/漢 Hàn is the name of a river (汉水, the longest tributary of the 长江 Cháng Jiāng = 扬子 Yangtze river in central China); the Hàn river gave its name to its valley, to two important dynasties (206 BCE - 220 CE), and to the most populous Chinese nationality and their language.
Compare: 汉水, 汉江; 汉代, 西汉, 东汉; 老汉, 汉子; 汉语, 汉字.
Compare: 艰/艱(􂛅𥌵) jiān ‘difficult/hard’; 暵(􁉐􁭙𤑆熯) hàn ‘parched’.
Compare: 难/難(􀩌𩁘) nán ‘difficult’, 滩/灘(􁻊􁻉𤅼𤅩) tān ‘beach’ (formerly hàn ‘soaked/dried’).
Compare: 叹/嘆(􀏞) tàn ‘sigh’; 仅/僅(􁗞) jǐn ‘barely’.
