Wheel of time books eye of the world5/7/2023 The Two Rivers measures about 130 miles from north to south and is almost 200 miles along its longest axis from west to east. The Two Rivers, as a quiet and orderly backwater, has been allowed to go its own way. Andor has focused its power in keeping open the Caemlyn Road all the way to Baerlon and making sure banditry is not a problem in the western districts. Raw materials, resources and precious metals are quarried in the mountains, in and around mining villages like Comfrey, and then shipped down to Baerlon for further transit on to Caemlyn. It is likely that Caemlyn would have let all of western Andor go its own way generations ago if it wasn’t for the mineral wealth in the Mountains of Mist. The reason for this is that Andor’s population is spread quite thin west of Whitebridge on the Arinelle. The nearest large town, Baerlon, is a clear 100 miles from the northern border of the Two Rivers. The Two Rivers has not seen an Andoran tax collector in generations and has no noble lord who rules over the area. It is located in the far south-western corner of Andor and is located almost 1,200 miles from the capital at Caemlyn. The Two Rivers is a self-governing, semi-autonomous district of the Kingdom of Andor. A map of the journey from Emond’s Field to Shadar Logoth.
