A council of three princes nominally rule the Free City of Lorath. The princes are elected by the people and serve for life. Each holds a different title and is elected by a specific segment of the population. The princes are:

  • The Harvest Prince is elected from the vote of all Lorathi who own land on the Lorathi islands.
  • The Fisher Prince is elected from the vote of all Lorathi who own ships.
  • The Prince of the Streets is elected from the vote of all the free men of the city.

The titles, today, are purely ceremonial. Authority now resides in a council of magisters formed by nobles, merchants, and priests.[1]
