Politics and Culture[edit]
As a member of the Azish empire, Desh formally recognizes the Prime Aqasix as its emperor.[2] In practice, the member states of the empire are generally self-governing, although they follow Azir's lead in international matters and maintain deference to the emperor through certain cultural customs.[4][5]
People from Desh were common visitors to the Tashikki city of Yeddaw.[6] Lift characterizes their clothing as "rural" in appearance with lighter colors, similar to clothing worn in Alm.[6] Many of Desh's inhabitants are nomads, who travel between various waystops. Such waystops are typically marked by stone obelisks.[7]
History[edit]
Lift visited Desh in her past and enjoyed it, as few people had tried to kill her during her time there.[6]
One of Desh's ambassadors was in Azimir when Noura told Dalinar that the Makabak empire would join his coalition against Odium.[2]
