'''Babatharnam'''
== Geography and Ecology ==
Babatharnam has two unnamed rivers running through it, and the border with Yulay is also an unnamed river.{{map ref|Roshar}}
== Politics and Culture ==▼
In Babatharnam, the older one was, the more authority one had.{{ref|b|sa1|c|46}} Everyone had an opportunity to rule, if they lived long enough. Anyone could become the Most Ancient--the Babath king. ▼
Babatharnam
However, in practicality, during the present day, Babatharnam was ruled by the '''Monavakah Dynasty''', which executed or exiled any person old enough to challenge them.{{ref|b|sa1|c|46}} This has ensured that the Monavakahs have remained in power for fifty years. [[Sigzil]] had visited Babatharnam, and recalled that the nation has a great deal of unrest from the Monavakah Dynasty's assassinations. ▼
Babatharnam has an area of around 1,107,000 km<sup>2</sup>.{{url ref|url=https://www.17thshard.com/forum/blogs/entry/634-roshar-physical-characteristics-and-areas/|text=Roshar Physical Characteristics And Areas|site=17th Shard}}
The Babath were very particular to how one speaks and can be offended easily. Sigzil had managed to be imprisoned three times in Babatharnam, though he suspects the Babath were using any excuse to imprison a foreigner, as his master had a good deal of money.{{ref|b|sa1|c|46}}▼
==
During the [[Heraldic Epochs]] Babatharnam was part of the [[Silver kingdoms|Silver Kingdom]] [[Sela Tales]]. All the Silver Kingdoms had a specific purpose during peacetime, teaching the others their art during a desolation so the Babath, among others, were experts in an art. After Sela Tales collapsed Babatharnam was founded.{{cite}}
▲Babatharnam had peculiar trees which, when a [[highstorm]] approaches, completely lays down, trunk and all, as if the tree was on a hinge.{{ref|b|sa1|c|46}}
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.{{book ref|sa1|46}}
During the initial months of the [[True Desolation]], the Most Ancient of Babatharnam refused to cooperate with [[Dalinar Kholin]].{{book ref|sa3|24}} The nation was conquered by [[singer]] forces shortly after the defection of [[Iri]].{{book ref|sa3|122}}

▲The Babath
As the Babath are ethnically [[Sela Tales|Selay]]{{book ref|sa3|i|1}}{{map ref|Roshar}} they probably have the Selay ripple patterns on their skin.{{book ref|sa1|52}}
The Babath probably have shards, as the Selay are known to have multiple sets.{{book ref|sa1|23}}
== Trivia ==
* In terms of real world nations, it is slightly larger than the total area of Ethiopia.
