The World of Roshar
The world of Roshar is a massive continent, with a variety of terrains and people. While there is no global or continental government, the mainland area called Alethkar have a system where the largest cities provide a protectorate for the smaller towns and hamlets nearby. These cities are ruled by a "High Lord" who then select members of their court and other nobles to act as minor city lords for the smaller cities and towns, providing governance and protection. Of all the High Lords, Dalinar Kholin of Kholinar (the central most territory of Alethkar, set on the western edge of Lake Kholin) is the most powerful. The other High Lords are a wildly varying group of people, all with their own schemes and ambitions. In the west of Alethkar are the countries of Jah Keved and Herdaz, both of whom fear Alethkar's military, but for now are content because Alethkar is not unified. In the South East, The Duch of Veden sits, protected by a high mountain range called The Spine. To the west of Roshar are the Lower and Upper Isles, two Island chains, one of which (the upper isles) float in the sky, while to other half (the lower isles) remain attached to the ocean floor. On the inhabited islands, Kings reign, often each island being the edges of one's kingdom.
