Highprince is the highest title of nobility in the Vorin kingdoms of Alethkar and Jah Keved, being directly subordinate to their respective monarchs. Highprinces and their heirs are of the second dahn, while their other children are of the third dahn.
Alethkar
Origins
Alethkar has had ten highprinces throughout its history.[1] In the ancient past, when Alethkar was a united kingdom, the ten Alethi highprinces were specialized and each was charged with governing a certain aspect of the entire kingdom.[1] Gavilar Kholin believes that this system forced the ten highprinces to work together and accept each other's authority.[1] Only four of the ten ancient titles are known:
- The Highprince of Commerce had authority over all merchants and his troops would patrol the roads across all ten princedoms.[1][2]
- The Highprince of Information had authority over criminal investigations and policing across the entire kingdom and appointed judges and magistrates.[3][2] Of particular interest to the Highprince of Information were criminal investigations where the Crown's interest was at stake.[3]
- The Highprince of War had control over the kingdom's combined military forces (implied to only hold this power in a time of actual war).[3][4]
- The Highprince of Works had management of the kingdoms infrastructure, such as sewage disposal, civil services, and potentially Stormlight management; with the increase in uses for Stormlight since the Battle of Narak.[5]
History
The modern highprince system dates back to the last monarch (prior to Gavilar Kholin) to unify Alethkar, Sadees the Sunmaker. Upon his death, his empire did not last long. He had never bothered to choose an heir, and his ten sons could not decide among themselves who they wished to support.[6] They quickly turned to infighting, and the empire collapsed in less than a generation. These ten sons founded the ten princedoms of Alethkar, crowning themselves the highprinces of a disunified kingdom, each being a de facto king in his own lands. During this time, Alethkar was effectively a loose coalition of ten separate states, being a unified kingdom in name only.
In approximately 1158, Highprince Gavilar Kholin went to war against the other princedoms, and by approximately 1163, he conquered and united them once again, establishing himself as the King. This reunified kingdom was not as strong as the ancient Alethkar, with the highprinces retaining large amount of authority and autonomy.[7]
After Gavilar's death, his son Elhokar became the King of Alethkar, while Gavilar's brother Dalinar became the Highprince of Kholin.[7] In the year 1173, King Elhokar, at the demand of Highprince Dalinar, reinstated two of the ancient specialized highprince titles—the Highprinces of Information and War—in an effort to once again create a truly unified kingdom of Alethkar.[3]
In the following year, Dalinar reinstated the titles of Highprince of Commerce and Highprince of Works,[8][5] presumably with Elhokar's blessing.
