 +The city of **Korranberg** is the oldest city in [[Zilargo]] and, despite not being the capital of the nation, is arguably the most important city. Home to the vaunted [[Bibliothèque de Korranberg]], which is more than a library, but perhaps the greatest collection of knowledge on the world of [[Eberron]] and among the best universities.
 +
 +=====History=====
 +The city, like most of the major urban centers of [[Zilargo]], was built on the foundations of a former [[Hobgobelin]] city.
 +
 +The [[Bibliothèque de Korranberg]] was founded approximately 3000 years ago, as the first Marques du Dragon were manifesting, including the [[Marque de l'Écriture]] of [[Maison Siri]]. [[Loremaster]] [[Dorius Alyre du 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.
 +
 +=====Politics=====
 +The center of gnomish knowledge is also one of its centers of political power. The [[Triumvirat]], that rules [[Zilargo]] from [[Port-de-Trolan]], was originally instituted as a governing body at the [[Bibliothèque de Korranberg]]. One of its representatives is still chosen from Korranberg.
 +
 +The city itself, like [[Port-de-Trolan]] 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]].
 +
 +=====Maisons Marquées Du Dragon=====
 +All of the Houses have a presence in Korranberg. However, [[Maison Siri]], whose most ancient enclave is in the city is among the most important. [[Maison Bombardier]], represented by [[Bombardier Sud]], directed by Baron [[npc:merrix_d_bombardier]] in [[Sharn]] and [[Maison Kundarak]] also have important presences in the city.
