On this episode we start the podcast by examining what is meant by the term, "The Riverlands". We introduce the land via its 7 mighty rivers, and go over some features that unite the region throughout all of history and its various states and cultures. We also introduce the first series, which will cover the history of the region preceding the early medieval period, and some key repeating influences which will shape the Riverlands into the future.
