The Urce River is a major waterway in western Urcea, which derives its name from the river basin. It is the primary riverway for much of the Urcean heartland and the capital of Urcea sits on its banks. It is a wide and deep river capable of hosting significant shipping and other waterbound traffic far into the mainland, and inland serves as a connection point for the Carolina-Grand Canal.
