The Council of Races is the governing body of the town of Haben. It is made up of Councillors who represent the three races who live in the town. The humans have three Councillors due to them being the most numerous of races in the town; there is one Councillor for the Hodrim, having recently being voted a new race onto their own. The Dwarves and Elves each have two representatives who sit on the council.

History
Formed in the year 107 once the town began to expand and an influx of nomads came to settle from the plains nearby. For the first few decades it went smoothly until the human population began to overwhelm the other races.
In the Year 430, the council voted, with the advice of the Order of Sages, to officially recognize the Hodrim people as their own race.
Demography and Population
In the town of Haben the four races have come together to live in harmony. The humans, hodrim, elves, and dwarves all have their own sections in the town. Out of the four races, the humans make up the most of the population with about a thousand humans in the city. The dwarves and elves have about the same population with three hundred apiece. The Hodrim are the least, with only a hundred of their kind in the town.
Territories
All the lands to the west of the town they consider their own. Any villages or hamlets usually give deference to them.
Military
200 standing guard. During times of war the inhabitants rise up as militias.
Half of this force remains in Haben at all times while the other half patrols the surrounding lands of theĀ Northern Hills
Foreign Relations
They have good relations with the other human realm of Erthos, Sirather. The town of Crook Crag is often in contention with them; their pirates raiding Haben traders. To the east of them lies the Plains and the tribes of barbarians who roam it. Dependent on the tribe, the relations are either good or poor.
Trade & Transport
Iron that the dwarves mine.
