Marka (mar-kuh)
The Marka is the hereditary head of state of the province of Riverford. For most of history, the marka ruled over the kingdom and directly administered the capital city of Forx, but recent centuries saw an elected council take over many features of ruling. Now, the vast majority of the Marka's duties are ceremonial, but the people of Riverford still support keeping the Marka and their family around.
As the Everyn War raged across eastern Ayndrinor, the Marka consulted with the council on what Riverford's involvement would be. They decided to seek peace with the Dumein Dominion in hopes they would be allowed a greater degree of autonomy than nations that tried to oppose the expansion militarily.
