The '''Dominances''' were the ten regions of governance in the [[Final Empire]] on [[Scadrial]].{{map ref|Final Empire|The Final Empire}}
=== Eastern Dominance ===
Known communities included [[Statlin City]] (the site of a storage cavern), [[Urbene]], and [[Erlac]]. Other places of interest included the [[Conventical of Seran]].
Many people in the southern dominances have darker skin than most peoples on the inner Dominances, though not as dark as some Terris peoples can get. The Eastern Dominance is likely included in the southern dominances.{{msh ref|3|2}}
====Geography====
====Resources====
Gold is mined in the Eastern Dominance, in the area where [[Spook]] was born.{{book ref|mb3|26}}
=== Western Dominance ===
====Politics====
Fadrex City became the capital of the Dominance after the Collapse since it was more defensible than Tremredare, originally under king [[Ashweather Cett]]. [[Aradan Yomen]], previously the leading [[obligator]] of the area, eventually became king of the Western Dominance, still ruling from Fadrex City {{book ref|mb3|30}}.
====Geography====
The ashmounts Morag and Torinost are located here.
The landscape contains eroded plateaus, spires of rock, and canyons. The rock formations form natural fortifications for Fadrex City. The dominance's plateaus represent some of the highest elevation farmland in the Final Empire {{book ref|mb3|25}}.
====Other Features====
In the northern part, the buildings have a fluid, organic shape quite different from [[Luthadel]].{{book ref|11m}}
=== Southern Dominance ===
The ashmounts Zerinah and Doriel are in this Dominance. It has a coast on the Southern Sea.
Many people in the Southern Dominance have darker skin than most peoples on the inner Dominances, though not as dark as some Terris peoples can get.{{msh ref|3|2}}
== Outer Dominances ==
=== Remote Dominance ===
The '''Remote Dominance''' was located to the southwest of the Eastern Dominance, below the Southern Islands. It is largely isolated, cut off by mountains on the border with the Eastern Dominance and sea separating it from the Southern Islands.{{map ref|Final Empire|The Final Empire}}
This dominance likely borders on, or includes, the [[burnlands]] at the edge of the empire where the "wasted men" (tribes rebelling against the Final Empire) live.
