'''Silnasen''' is a city on [[Roshar]]. It is located at the foot of a mountain range in southern [[Jah Keved]] located, near [[Triax]] and [[Bavland]].{{map ref|Roshar}}
 
==History==
Silnasen has an indigenous population that are distinct from the [[Veden]].{{book ref|sa2|54}} They are a less modernized society than the rest of Vedenar, with no real concept of assassination. War is less important in their culture as well. They do not fight serious battles, most of their conflicts are dominated by posturing and shouting, rather than actual killing. Hunters are too crucial to waste, so their society is more boastful on the battlefield than anything else.
Silnasen has an indigenous population that is distinct from the other Veden.{{book ref|sa2|54}}
 
According to [[Natata Ved]], ancient Silnasen was ruled by a king named [[NanKhet]]. NanKhet took over the throne after his brother, King [[NanHar]], died while campaigning with his army in modern-day [[Triax]]. NanKhet survived six assassination attempts from his own family members in three months. Weary of defending his life, he executed hundreds of people at a feast, then choked to death when no one was left to help him.{{book ref|sa3|53}} The Siln dynasty was founded after his death.{{book ref|sa3|53}}
 
At some points in its history, Silnasen has been governed as an independent city-state.{{wob ref|4006}} Their monarchs have generally declined to claim the first [[dahn]] in order to avoid provoking the Veden and [[Alethi]].{{wob ref|4006}}
 
==Culture==
In the present day, the Siln are thought of as a less modernized society than the rest of Jah Keved. [[Shallan Davar]] compares the Siln to other indigenous people in [[Iri]] and the [[Reshi Isles]]. Their disputes tend to result in posturing rather than actual combat because they live a lifestyle in which hunting skill is too valuable to risk in battle. They are not known to commit assassinations.{{book ref|sa2|54}}
 
At least some of the Siln people follow [[Vorinism]]; a Siln [[ardent]] named [[Urv]] studies at the [[Jokasha Monastery]].{{book ref|sa3|i|2}}
