The United States was rather special.

Excluding Alaska and Hawaii, which were not connected to the main country, the United States was separated to its eastern and western parts at the Mississippi River.

The political center of the eastern United States was headed by Washington DC.

While the western financial center was headed by New York.

The formidable Maynard family, a group of Somer descents who were second to none, had a special existence in the east.

Despite clearly being of Somer descent, the family had an exceptional status and authority in the east.

The middle-aged man was born and raised in the United States, so he knew quite a bit about this family.

As to how strong the Maynard family was, it could be seen in their marriage partner.

Wharton was a member of the Welling family.
