Drtéréksrne River

The River.Drtéréksrne is a river in Jelbania which flows from Majatran Sea in the north to Lake Majatra in the south. By far the longest and largest river, it plays a very important in Jelbek culture and nomadic life.

Names
The river, due to its prominence and fame in Jelbanian culture has earned a lot of names. The name 'Drtéréksrne' is thought to have an ancient jelbic word which time has forgot but many believe means 'little sea'. Jelbaniens often call it the 'Democracy River' while many Jelbeks increasingly refer to it as the 'Royal River'. the two names both refer to the royal elections that are held by the Kurultai on the right bank of the river near the town of Frtoékrmjko and the river's banks also host a secret burial ground for monarchs and their consorts.

Navigation
The river is believed to be navigable from the Majatran Sea to Lake majatra although very few ships have been recorded as having passed through each year out of fear of pirates. No more than 2 million tons navigate through the river each year.

Piracy
Several dozen piracy related crimes ar4e reported every year. The 17 islands on the river have always served as a base for pirates for thousands of years. The jelbanian coast guard has largely failed to tackle the problem.
