Difference between revisions of "Highprince"

Highprince [[Gavilar Kholin]] conquered the ten princedoms and unified them, establishing himself as King and once again creating a united kingdom of [[Alethkar]]. While his force of will and strength led the other highprinces to accept his rule—and even be loyal to him—his reunitedreunified kingdom was not as strong as the ancient Alethkar, with the highprinces retaining large amounts of authority and autonomy.{{ref|b|sa1|c|12}} After his death, his son [[Elhokar Kholin]] became King of Alethkar while his brother [[Dalinar Kholin|Dalinar]] became Highprince of Kholin.{{ref|b|sa1|c|12}} Since Elhokar lacked land of his own to rule over, he acted more like a Highprince of Kholin, leeching off of the authority and resources of his uncle. Due to this, the other highprinces only paid token nods to his authority as their overlord.
