The Amas River, or simply known as the Amas is a major north-flowing river in western Amador. It flows into the Western Alfarian Sea. It is the longest river in Amador, its widest and most important river. Its annual flow in cubic metres is the largest in the nation. It's drainage basin lies in two countries: Amador and Seclya. The Amas is the primary water source for the southwestern Amadorian territories.

The Amas is considered the cradle of Alfar civilization, with Ifa Serine, the nations capital and largest metropolitan area, lying at the mouth of the Amas and serving as its main gateway into the interior of the nation. The Amad further empties out in Ilymmelle, Amador's third largest metropolitan area.
