Nome of the Rivers' Meeting

Around the meeting of the three great rivers – the Terraq, which flows from Elysium along the Great Canyon; the Stonewash which flows from the glacial headwaters of the Stone Valleys; and the Rustwater, which rises in the deep workings of the Iron Hills – three great clans of water Genasi established the Kingdom of River’s Meeting among the jungle terrain.
With a commanding position on the riverine trade routes to the south, River’s Meeting was well on its way from a regal and military power to a mercantile empire by the time of its incorporation into the growing Elysian Federation in CY11.1, and its current form is as a merchant principality. It remains notable as the only inland nome dominated by genasi of the water gen, primarily three leading clans who were among the first to switch from military to mercantile pursuits.
The Dage, Nomarch of River’s Meeting, is the elected head of the Merchants’ Council, which consists of representatives of all the great trading houses of the nome. The five greatest are granted the right to nominate an elector. The other two electoral votes are given to the eldest members of the two surviving founder-clans, the House of Ooliat and the Syeniteh Company. The Koliboi League divided into the House of Koliboi and the House of Galoi five hundred years ago, sacrificing their founding electoral seat, but typically holding two of the consular seats.
