==Editing Notes==
3rd cache in Urteau {{book ref|mb3|5}}
Urteau is mentioned by name in Chs 5, 12, 14, 16, 22, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 35, 38, 41, 46, 48, 49, 51, 52, 53, 56, 58, 59, 62, 63, 64, 69, 70, Epilogue.
5: cache talk.
12: capture caches, take Urteau not by force.
Should Beldre be a participant?
Urteau article shamelessly plundered.
Include map of Urteau?
Aftermath? Demoux message?
Generally only link to each different article once?

I will check the order, other notable events when I have access to the whole book.
[[Quellion]] ruleswas ruling in [[Urteau]] sinceafter [[Straff Venture]] left to [[Siege of Luthadel|besiege Luthadel]]. [[Elend]] sent [[Spook]] to the city to gauge its political climate. Spook, [[Sazed]] and [[Breeze]] try to reason with Quellion, but decide to take him down instead RESULTS OF REASONING?. They attempt to incite a revolution, but discover that they have been playing into the hands of [[Ruin]], who has been subtly influencing both Spook and Quellion via [[Hemalurgy|Hemalurgic Spikesspikes]]. Spook manages to remove the spikes. A fire breaks out, threatening to destroy the town, but Spook removes the spikes THESE TWO THINGS SEEM UNCONNECTED and floods the Canals, saving the city.{{book ref|mb3|58}}
== Importance of Urteau ==
Urteau was the capital city of the [[Northern Dominance]] in the [[Final Empire]].{{cite}} It was situated along the canals, allowing it to control shipments of merchandise.{{cite}} It was known for its "streetslots," dried up canals that served as streets.{{book ref|mb3|14}}
Urteau was important because it was situated upon the canals, which meant that the city controlled every shipment of merchandise that needed to get to other cities including Luthadel. Since ships are one of the only ways to transport heavy merchandise at a reasonable speed, through taxes and other fees, the city has quickly risen to become one of the most important ones in the area.{{cite}} However, during the events of the book, the canals are dried and is used as roads or as a place where the homeless skaas can spend the night.{{cite}}

Urteau was the capital city of the [[Northern Dominance]] in the [[Final Empire]]. {{cite}} (from Urteau article).
Urteau was also the location of one of the [[Lord Ruler]]'s [[storage cavern]]s.{{book ref|mb3|5}} It contained not only food, resources and equipment, but also information about [[electrum]] and the upcoming danger that [[Ruin]] represented.{{cite}}CITE THIS AND IMPROVE The Lord Ruler redirected the canals' water to the city's storage cavern. This caused the canals to dry out but ensured a fresh water supply for the cavern.{{cite}} ▼
These are reasons why Elend sent [[Spook]] to the city of Urteau to gauge the political climate. (This sentence needs to change and maybe not be its own paragraph. I guess it just feels like an essay conclusion, not needed here. In event summary put "Elend sent [[Spook]] to the city to gauge its political climate.")

== Political climate of Urteau ==
This seems more like something to put in a city article, not an event article, at least the title.
With the collapse of the [[Final Empire]], the people of Urteau followed the rebellion along with many cities. A skaa named Quellion takes the power of the city, and gives himself the title The Citizen.
COMBINE THESE TWO.
After the fall of the [[Lord Ruler]], [[Quellion]], also known as the Citizen, seized power by invoking [[Kelsier]]'s authority as Lord of the Mists.{{book ref|mb3|14}}
