Universe | Cosmere |
“Some scholars say that the Manywar was fought over these flower petals, that the kingdoms of Kuth and Huth were destroyed by little drips of color. ”
Kuth is a nation-state on Nalthis.[1]
Geography[edit]
Kuth lies north of the Idrian mountains.[2][3] Not much is known of Kuth’s climate, although it is known to be either a prairie or a steppe or a desert climate.[1]
Government[edit]
Monarchy[edit]
Kuth is a kingdom, and as such it has a king or queen.[1]
Foreign Policy and international relationships[edit]
Hanald[edit]
Kuth has a bad relationship with Hanald.[1] They are jealous of the riches Hanald posseses,[1] as well as afraid of Hanald's military might.
This eventually lead to Hanald declaring war on Kuth, and invading the Kingdom.[1]
Huth[edit]
Huth lies near Kuth, north of the Idrian mountains.[1] They also fought together during the Manywar, with each of the nations being invaded by Hanald.[1]
Pahn Unity[edit]
It is unclear whether or not Kuth was a part of the Pahn Unity.
During the Manywar Kuth was on the same side as the Pahn Unity.[1] Due to this it is likely that they had at least fine relationships with the nations that made up this alliance.
History[edit]
Establishment[edit]
Kuth was established at an unknown date before the Manywar.[1]
Tensions with Hanald[edit]
Approximately three hundred years before the Pahn Kahl rebellion, a short time before the Manywar, tensions with Hanald were at an all time high.[1] This was because of two main reasons.
The first reason was Hanald’s monopoly on the dye trade.[1] Other kingdoms wished to profit in this trade as well, but Hanald wouldn’t allow them.[1]
Hanald’s Royals also turned its attention to the relatively new art of Awakening.[1] During this time they gained powerful awakeners and Lifeless, which other kingdoms didn’t have.[1] Many different discoveries were made during this time, including the command to make Lifeless with a single breath and Ichor-alcohol. These discoveries allowed nations to build far larger and cheaper armies,[1] and become far more powerful, raising tensions even higher.
At some point, one of the Returned in Hanald had a vision of war.[1] This ended up being the catalyst for a war, as it prompted Strifelover to strike preemptively against Kuth and the other nations.[1]
The Manywar and Destruction[edit]
As Strifelover marched his phantoms into Kuth and Huth what was to become known as the Manywar broke out.[1]
Kuth and Huth would become Hanald’s main rivals in this war.[4] These nations would fight with each other for the remaining time of the war, until somewhere near the end both nations were destroyed[1] and Strifelover withdrew his phantoms.
After the destruction of Kuth multiple kingdoms were established in its place, these nations would keep their hatred for Hallandren.[5] Three hundred years after Kuth’s collapse a tyrant tried to restore Kuth and Huth, with the help of Yesteel.[4]
