Borough

A borough in the context of Trynser City was an administrative division of the city, several boroughs to each major ward. The leader of each borough, the burgher, is installed by the alderman of each ward. Some burghers are elected by the constituents of their boroughs, though they must still be approved by the alderman. There are nearly a hundred boroughs in Trynser City.
Until recently, the boroughs were entirely responsible for the security of their own streets. Many met the need by the recruitment of constables. Lately, the Trynser City Municipal Force is taking over city watch duties, though many boroughs still maintain their own constabulary. Each borough is also usually responsible for the collection of taxes, public health, and collection of the dead.
