{{nation}} This is a guide for what sections to include on a page describing a nation.

The part before the in-depth sections should be a few paragraphs long and is meant to be a general overview of the nation. This should be used as a guide for both countries and city-states.

Location/Geography[edit]

This section should contain a detailed description of the location, climate, etc of the nation and/or its parts, or should link to a relevant description.

Unique Geography[edit]

Description of any particularly unique features in the lands of this nation. EG the Shinovar landscape compared to the rest of Roshar.

Notable Locations[edit]

A {{for}} to the nations places category

A list of capitals, places that are visited in the book, or notable 'tourist' locations/architecture.

History[edit]

This section should describe, in subsections with date ranges, the history of the nation. Include a short description of what happened before and after this nation's existence, with lots of links to connect it to more in-depth descriptions of those times.

=== Period (date range) ==

Culture[edit]

An in depth description of the culture and mannerisms of the people.

Notable People[edit]

A {{for}} to the nations people category

A list of characters or groups which they interact with and a short description of relevance.

Language/Colloquialisms[edit]

Lots of {{quote}} with lists of words/phrases unique to their culture.

Trivia[edit]

Out of universe facts and info about how Brandon created the culture and nation.

See Also[edit]

Links to other things which they are a part of.

Notes[edit]

The notes section should first list <references /> then include the book navbox and any other extra categories (though we prefer these to be tags listed in one part of the infobox). Just prior to the navbar there may be an article status template, one of {{stub}}, {{partial}}, or {{complete}}.
