Babazarnam es un reino al oeste de Roshar.[1] Su capital, Panazam, tiene una Puerta Jurada.[2] El gentilicio de Babazarman es «babaz». Las mujeres babaces tienen un patrón de venas que se marca en la superficie de la piel, lo que algunos extranjeros encuentran desagradable.[3]
Geografía y ecología
Babazarnam limita con el Lagopuro, Yulay, Marabezia, y Rira.[1] Entre sus ciudades conocidas están su capital, Panazam[1], y Sween.[4]
El territorio cuenta con dos ríos de los que no se conoce el nombre, además del que hace de frontera con Yulay, que tampoco se ha nombrado hasta ahora.
Este reino tiene unos árboles particulares que, cuando una alta tormenta está próxima, se tumban por completo como si fueran una bisagra.[3] Los babaces son el resultado del cruce entre humanos y aimianos.[5]
Babazarnam has an area of around 1,107,000 km2.[6] In terms of real world nations, it is slightly larger than the total area of Ethiopia.
Historia
During the Heraldic Epochs Babazarnam was part of the Silver Kingdom Sela Tales. All the silver kingdoms had a specific purpose during peacetime, teaching the others their art during a desolation so the Babaz, among others, were experts in an art. After Sela Tales collapsed Babazarnam was founded.
Around the year 1120 The Monavakah dynasty was established and began assassinating rivals to stay in power. This caused a great deal of unrest in the country.
During the initial months of the True Desolation, the Most Ancient of Babazarnam refused to cooperate with Dalinar Kholin.[7] The nation was conquered by singer forces shortly after the defection of Iri.[8]
Política
Babazarnam is a gerontocracy, meaning the older one is, the more authority one has.[3] Everyone has an opportunity to rule, if they live long enough. Anyone can become the Most Ancient--the Babaz king.
However, in practicality, during the present day, Babazarnam is ruled by the Monavakah Dynasty, which executes or exiles any person old enough to challenge them.[3] This has ensured that the Monavakahs have remained in power for fifty years. Sigzil has visited Babazarnam, and recalled that the nation has a great deal of unrest from the Monavakah Dynasty's assassinations.
Cultura
The Babaz are very particular to how one speaks and can be offended easily. Sigzil has managed to be imprisoned three times in Babazarnam, though he suspects the Babaz use any excuse to imprison a foreigner, as his master had a good deal of money.[3]
As the Babaz are ethnically Selay they probably have the Selay ripple patterns on their skin.
The Babaz probably have shards, as the Selay are known to have multiple sets.
