Welcome to '''the Coppermind''', the comprehensive wiki about [[Brandon Sanderson]], [[:category: books|his novels]], and the [[cosmere]], by the official Brandon Sanderson fansite, [http://www.17thshard.com/ 17th Shard]. Want to know more about [[the Stormlight Archive]], [[Mistborn (series)|Mistborn]], [[Elantris (book)|Elantris]], [[Warbreaker]], the [[Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians (series)|Alcatraz]] series, and Brandon's numerous short stories? You've come to the right place! We have [[special: statistics|{{int: article count}}]] articles and we're expanding frequently!
 
Welcome to the Coppermind, the [[Brandon Sanderson]] wiki! I'm Chaos, 17th Shard admin and Coppermind admin, editing this home page with a special message. Well, a special message about a very special person, [[User:LadyLameness|LadyLameness]].
Discovering us for the first time? Did you know that all of Brandon's adult fiction entries are all set in the same universe? It's true! They are all in a universe called the [[cosmere]], sharing the same mythology, rules to magic, and more. Some reading you might want to check out as an introduction:

For those of you who don't know, LadyLameness became a Keeper (Coppermind staff) last October, after excellent work in that previous summer on a number of articles. After she became staff, I ended up talking to her on the week of [[Skyward]]'s release to get to know her better. Then we just... never stopped talking. Never have I spoken with someone so much, and have such a [[Connection]] (capital-C, of course) so quick. Maybe we are avatars of the same [[Shard]] or something, but we definitely have the same thoughts all the time. It's weird. Like many things in our relationship, it is weird but also spectacular.{{cite}}

We met in December that month after we began talking, crossing the Pacific Ocean to see each other, and every moment with her has been utter perfection. I knew earlier than that first trip how much I loved her, and how she was the one, but that first trip made me realize that so deeply.

Jess, I love you so much. You are wise, brilliant, gorgeous, and absolutely the kindest, sweetest person I have ever known. I probably knew you were the one for me so quick, but it has just happened to take a little while for my brain to realize that I couldn't stand to go a day without you. You make me into my best self (nice [[Spiritual Realm|Spiritual]] magical abilities you got there, love). You are my sunshine, my darling, and my love.

I would really like to be your partner for the rest of your life. To be your [[highprince|prince]], and to show you how amazing you are every day. I promise you I will treat you like a queen and make sure you know I love you so much. I promise I'll be there in the best times and the worst times for whatever you need.

'''Azir''' is a kingdom in southwest [[Roshar]]. Its capital is [[Azimir]]. The people and language of Azir are both referred to as Azish.
 
=== Geography ===
Azir is a land-locked state in southwestern [[Roshar]], in the geographical region known as [[Makabak]]. The largest Makabaki state, it covers an area of roughly 1,343,000 km<sup>2</sup>, making it the seventh largest nation on the planet. To the southeast, it is bordered by the nation of [[Emul]] along a river that serves as Azir's only way to access the sea. The smaller nations of [[Tashikk]], [[Yezier]] and [[Desh]] lay to the west, while in the north, it shares a long border with [[Yulay]].
 
Like most of Makabak, Azir is rather dry and warm compared to the rest of the continent, though it is still cooler than [[Iri]]. There are broad plains and few rivers. A vast mountain range stretches across the country's northern and northeastern edge, with a wide pass leading due north to Yulay. The tower-city of [[Urithiru]] is not far from Azir, in the peaks directly east of [[Azimir]].
 
; Notable locations
* [[Azimir]] - the capital city of Azir. The [[Makabakam]] [[Oathgate]] is located there.
* [[Bronze Palace]] - the seat of Azish government and home of the [[Prime Aqasix]], in Azimir.
* [[Zawfix]] - a large city on the northern border, known for having shanty towns inside old mines.
