The Nine Cousins (Rezese: Dan'uwan Nuv) are an organized, incorporated territory of Sante Reze in Scipia. They are a federation of seven cities which are recognized as a singular province, and constitute the easternmost point and territory of Sante Reze. Originally formed as resupply and small trade outposts on the far side of the Thalassan, their dominance of the local economy brought them great wealth and prestige, and combined they constitute almost a third of Sante Reze's population and annual GDP.
They are named after the nine cities that used to make up the federation but there have been two cessions in their history. The first was to Yisrael, as Sante Reze sold its island port of _CITY1_, just off of Yisrael's west coast, to the Yisraeli king to fund a naval campaign against Latium. The second was _CITY2_, ceded in XXXX to _NATION_.
