Gilgamesh

Located floating in the sea East of The Empire. Gilgamesh is comprised mostly of Gillmen, but some Merfolk live there as well.
==Founding==
Striking out on their own, Gillmen were once land-dwellers. They came together in their small community to build a floating city, and set it out into the sea, in an attempt to distance themselves from the wars and petty strife caused by the races around them, and live peaceful lives.
==Government==
A Governor is elected every year, but is very much non-essential. The Gillmen do well self-governing, but every once in a while a decision has to be made, and that is what the Governor is for.
==Life in the City==
Comprised of rafts tied together, the city is as much above water and as under. The surface section of Gilgamesh is designed to appeal to tourists and has many shops and governmental buildings. The underwater section is almost entirely residential, but has certain sections to accommodate Merfolk visitors. Gilgamesh does not bother with things such as war and has minimal crime in it's borders. Life is usually happy, with clam bakes every day, and more than enough food to go around, people share their possessions with each other pretty readily. Money usually doesn't get exchanged among it's residents, usually only with visiting traders.
==Interactions with The Empire & Atlantis==
Gilgamesh thrives on trade with The Empire and Atlantis. Rarely do the respective parties trade in coin, but instead trade goods that are unique to each area. Merfolk enjoy conversing with the Gillmen, being one of the only other intelligent races they come into contact with on a regular basis, and see them almost as children and help guide them and care for their budding society.
Gilgamesh also serves as one of a few locations that house an entrance to Iomedae's Temple, and thusly the city receives many visitors wishing to worship her.
