System Case

How does a grammatical case system work in more complex sentences?
I understand the basic nominative = subject, accusative = direct object, dative = indirect object, and genitive = possessive. That much is simple enough to understand. But I can't figure out the cases for the following scenario:
(e.g.) "Washington, D.C., located on the Potomac River, is the capital of the United States."
I know Washington D.C. would be nominative, capital would be accusative, United States would be genitive, but what would Potomac River be?
Any clarification and/or explanation (that I can understand) would be welcome! It doesn't matter to me if you are using examples from a constructed language or a natural language, or even just using the words nominative/accusative, etc., like I did above.
Is there a specific reason the verb "to be" always governs the nominative case? Are there other verbs that govern specific cases?
i always try to avoid the complex sentences
