Molbridge, also known as the Molbridge triangle, is a semi-official grouping of the three oldest, wealthiest, most prestigious and research-intensive universities in Estmere; the University of Damesbridge, the University of Tolbury and the University of Morwall. The name is a portmanteau term, combining the names of the three institutions (Morwall, Tolbury, Damesbridge).
As a term, it often refers to the three universities collectively, to the similarities between the institutions such as their shared use of the collegiate model, and of their heightened status compared to other Estmerish univerisites. The term often carries connotations of elitism.
