 Mivon is a swampy, boggy River Kingdom, to the south of Midmarch, that is reached by travelling down steam on the Little Sellen  river.  It is home to the [[https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Houses_in_Exile|Aldori Houses in Exile]].  Mivon is a swampy, boggy River Kingdom, to the south of Midmarch, that is reached by travelling down steam on the Little Sellen  river.  It is home to the [[https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Houses_in_Exile|Aldori Houses in Exile]]. 
  
-Mivon is mainly composed of swamps and bogs, and there is very little good building land.  The swamps bogs and streams are crisscrosses with trails and small bridges that mean the residents can get about on foot - although many prefer Skiffs, Canoes or Coracles.   Surrounding the city, you will find nine fortified hill top compounds, that are the strongholds of the major Aldori houses that 'own' Mivon.  Most of these are the size of a small town, and provide a secure base for the whole family.+Mivon is mainly composed of swamps and bogs, and there is very little good building land.  The swamps, bogs and streams are crisscrossed with trails and small bridges, which means the residents can get about on foot - although many prefer Skiffs, Canoes or Coracles.   Spread along the river and surrounding the city, you will find a number of fortified hill top compounds -  these are strongholds, and safe havens, for the Aldori houses that 'own' Mivon.  The strongholds of the most influential families are the size of a small town - although most are smaller.

 +**Business Overview**
 +
 +  * //Political//: Mivon is controlled by eight major houses and their allies, who run the city for their own benefit.  In their view, everyone else is lucky to receive their protection, and can pay for that privilege.  There is large premium (1bp) for developments in the Central District.
 +  * //Risks//:  Mivon is not well patrolled, various Aldori Houses vie for the right to patrol the city and they patrol the upper city regularly -  although you can never be quite sure of who will be on patrol and their outlook on life.  The lower part of the city, ins not patrolled by the Aldori, and in in the control of various gangs.  So long as they don’t encroach on Aldori territory, the patrols leave them alone.
 +  * //Tax Rate//: High

 +**The Merchant League** - a formal group of Mivon's wealthiest independent Merchants and Ship Owners.  They carry general trade as well as working for the Aldori houses.  They have a large office on the dockside and, like many in the River kingdoms, they follow the River Freedoms enthusiastically. 
  
 **Vysult Shipping** - A family owned merchant fleet controlled by Adlash Vysulty from a small compound close to Central Square.

 +These are the Aldori houses that left Rostland after the conquest by Choral the Conqueror.   None were directly related to the Sword Baron's line.  The major houses have always been most influential politically, and most of the smaller houses have allied themselves to one or the other of them, although few houses try to stay independent.  They are listed in order of their influence.
