The '''Dominances''' were the ten regions of governance in the [[Final Empire]] on [[Scadrial]].{{map ref|Final Empire}}
 
=== Central Dominance ===
==== Politics ====
This dominance can be found in the center of the Final Empire, and holds the city of [[Luthadel]], capital of the Final Empire. It was the most politically significant dominance in all the Final Empire. Although it was the smallest dominance in terms of land area, it was more populous then any other as well. The Great Houses all maintained noble keeps here to keep their fingers on the pulse of the empire. Noble balls and other sources of intrigue kept the nobles entertained. This was the economic center of the Final Empire and fortunes were regularly won and lost through business dealings and backstabbing.
 
The Lord Ruler's influence was pervasive here. The obligators and Inquisitors of the [[Steel Ministry]] were never far away.
 
==== Notable Locations ====
Places of interest included the caves known as the [[Pits of Hathsin]], as well as Ruin's [[ShardpoolPerpendicularity]] located within. The nearby Kandra Homeland was also located in caves and the other major cave complex, the [[Arguois caverns]], were home to the skaa rebellion. The Lord Ruler's palace, Kredik Shaw was located in the Central Dominance. In tunnels beneath it were both the first storage cache and the Well of Ascension, Preservation's ShardpoolPerpendicularity.
 
=== Northern Dominance ===
 
=== Farmost Dominance ===
 
Located to the the north-west of the Western Dominance, the Farmost Dominance is largely unknown, however it is known that it is home to multiple primitive societies.{{cite}}
 
=== Crescent Dominance ===
 
The crescent dominance is the farmostfar-most eastern dominance in the Final Empire. No character in the series is from this place, nor have any of the characters travelledtraveled there. As such, very little is known about it.
 
The land is a desolate, sandy expanse. It is inhabited only by bandit and nomad tribes made of fugitive skaa, who survive by raiding the Eastern Dominance. Now that some bandit kings are declaring their own nations, koloss hordes are being dispatched to eliminate them.
 
=== Southern Islands ===
