'''Desh'''
==Geography==
Desh is a small nation that is situated at the foot of a mountainous area in western Roshar. It borders [[Azir]] to the east and [[Yezier]] to the south. [[Shinovar]] lies to the west and [[Babatharnam]] to the north, but they are separated by the mountains.{{map ref|Roshar}} During the [[Silver Kingdoms]] era, Desh was a part of [[Makabakam]].{{map ref|Silver Kingdoms}}
==Politics and Culture==
As a member of the Azish empire, Desh formally recognizes the [[Prime Aqasix]] as its emperor.{{book ref|sa3|65}} 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.{{book ref|sa3|12}}{{book ref|sa3|122}}
People from Desh were common visitors to the [[Tashikk]]i city of [[Yeddaw]].{{book ref|sa2.5|4}} [[Lift]] characterizes their clothing as "rural" in appearance with lighter colors, similar to clothing worn in [[Alm]].{{book ref|sa2.5|4}} Many of Desh's inhabitants are nomads, who travel between various waystops. Such waystops are typically marked by stone obelisks.{{book ref|sa3.5|12}}
==History==
