The Alethi has a long history of the monarchy rising and falling, with few families able to retain authority for any significant length of time. The first person to unify Alethkar after the fall of Alethela was Sadees the Sunmaker, although his rule quickly collapsed after his death as Alethi territory was split between his ten sons, leading to another interregnum.{{cite}} While the king has power over the Highprinces, highprinces still retain a high degree of autonomy within their own princedoms. This power over the highprinces, however limited, is primarily maintained through military strength and access to soulcasters.{{book ref\|sa1\|15}} In part due to the limited power of the king, many people feel more connection and loyalty to their highprince than they do to the king themself.{{~~cite~~book ref\|sa1\|24}} Jasnah Kholin, the current queen, expresses an interest in disbanding the monarchy after the True Desolation is over.{{book ref\|sa4\|50}}
