'''Alethkar''' was the largest and most prominent of the five [[Vorinism|Vorin]] Nations. It was split into ten princedoms, each with its own [[Highprince]]. The [[Kholin]] family ruled over the ten Highprinces.

Located in eastern [[Roshar]], Alethkar was more exposed to the Highstorms than many lands further east. Important geographical features included the Sunmaker mountains, the Sea of Spears, and the Windrunner and Deathbend Rivers.

Alethkar was founded as Alethela in the Silver Kingdoms Epoch. It survived the Desolations, but at an unknown point was fractured into the Princedoms.

Under this system, the ten [[Highprince]]s acted as Kings of their own lands, with no unifying government. In approximately 1158, [[Gavilar Kholin]] sought to conquer and unite the Highprinces, which he achieved by about 1163. He was then crowned King and his brother [[Dalinar Kholin]] became Highprince to the [[Kholin]] Princedom.

When Gavilar was assassinated by the [[Parshendi]] in 1167, his son [[Elhokar Kholin]] became King and declared war on the Parshendi. Each of the Highprinces joined the [[Vengeance Pact]], and they went to the [[Shattered Plains]] to besiege the Parshendi. The siege took much longer than was expected, and was still active by 1173.
