The Eastern Crownlands
The city of Rathalas and its leaders rebelled against Gavilar's rule both before and after the unification of the country.{{book ref|sa3|49}} Gavilar believed that the rebellion in Rathalas could lead the entirety of the Crownlands to attempt secession.{{book ref|sa3|36}} After attempts to politically quell the situation failed, [[Dalinar Kholin]] and [[Torol Sadeas]] marched on Rathalas and razed the city to set an example for the other highprinces. During this battle, Dalinar's wife, [[Evi Kholin]], was accidentally killed on Dalinar's orders.{{book ref|sa3|76}} Her death was blamed on the rebels as a cover-up.{{book ref|sa3|88}}{{book ref|sa3|91}}
During the [[True Desolation]], Dalinar awarded some land in the area to [[Kaladin]], noting that it may have already been occupied by the [[singer]] forces that were invading Alethkar.{{book ref|sa3|58}}
