The Highprince of Commerce is a title bestowed by the Alethi king onto one of his highprinces on Roshar. It is currently held by highprince Sebarial.[1]
The Highprince of Commerce is responsible for securing and regularing trade throughout Alethkar. He has the authority to patrol the trade routes and markets, establish new marketplaces and institute laws governing them.[2][3] He can set up taxes, both on trade routes and goods.[3][4] In exchange, he's responsible for keeping track of the country's supplies and economy.[1]
Prior to the Everstorm, Alethkar did not have a Highprince of Commerce.[2] Dalinar gives the role to Sebarial following the Alethi relocating to Urithiru in an effort to turn the tower into a livable space.[1] While Sebarial has broad authority there, it does not stretch beyond the city and the Shattered Plains war camps, as queen Fen of Thaylenah is made responsible for commerce in the broader alliance over him.[5]
