Korranberg is a large city in Zilargo . It is the oldest city in Zilargo and, [1] It is home to the vaunted Library of Korranberg , which is more than a library but perhaps the greatest collection of knowledge on the world of Eberron and among the best universities. [2]
History
The Library of Korranberg was founded approximately 3000 years ago, as the first dragonmarks were manifesting, including the Mark of Scribing of House Sivis . Loremaster Dorius Alyre ir'Korran is credited by gnomish historians and librarians as being the founder of the Library, wanting to erect a "fortress of knowledge" to unlock the mysteries of the world. [3]
Government
The center of gnomish knowledge is also one of its centers of political power. The Triumvirate , which rules Zilargo from Trolanport , was originally instituted as a governing body at the Library of Korranberg. One of its representatives is still chosen from Korranberg. [4]
The city itself, like Trolanport and Zolanberg , is administered by a Council of Nine, from which the city's triumvir is chosen. Several of the members of this council are also members of the Aurum . [4]
Dragonmarked Houses
House Sivis , whose most ancient enclave is in the city, is among the most important. [1] [5]
