'''Sadeas princedom''' is one of ten [[Alethi]] princedoms that form [[Alethkar]]. Sadeas house colors are deep green & white.{{book ref|sa3|115}}{{wob ref|10274}} While [[Torol Sadeas]] was ruler, their symbol was a tower and hammer.{{book ref|sa3|64}} After [[Meridas Amaram]] became ruler, their symbol was a tower and axe.{{book ref|sa3|115}}

== Geography ==
It is located in the northwestern corner of Alethkar, bordered to the west by [[Jah Keved]] and the north by the [[Bay of Elibath]]. [[Aladar princedom]] on the east, and [[Vamah princedom]] to the south.{{map ref|Alethkar}} The town of [[Hearthstone]] is located in eastern Sadeas, near the border with Aladar.

One known region of the princedom is [[Akanny]]. This region is valued for its farmlands.{{book ref|sa3|10}}

=== Settlements ===
* [[Hobbleken]]
* [[Hearthstone]]
* [[Mourn's Vault]]
* [[Tomat]]
* [[Shorsebroon]]
* [[Stringken]]

== Highprince ==
After the murder of Highprince [[Torol Sadeas]], the rulership of the Sadeas princedom was given to [[Meridas Amaram]] by [[Ialai Sadeas]], as her nephew - the heir - was too young.{{book ref|sa3|26}} After Amaram's death, [[Ialai Sadeas]] was the de facto head of the princedom,{{book ref|sa3|120}}{{book ref|sa4|7}} though the princedom itself is under the control of the [[Fused]].{{book ref|sa4|17}}{{map ref|Alethkar}} After Ialai's death in early {{rosharan date|1175}}, Queen [[Jasnah Kholin]] appointed a distant scion of Torol Sadeas as the new highprince.{{book ref|sa4|27}}

== History ==
Like all Alethi princedoms, Sadeas is a piece of [[Sunmaker]]-era Alethkar carved out by one of Sadees' sons.{{book ref|sa3|26}} When Gavilar Kholin begun his conquest of Alethkar in the 1130s, Sadeas princedom, under the leadership of Torol Sadeas, was the only one to initially ally with him.{{book ref|sa3|3}} 

=== Wastescum Skirmishes (???) ===
{{for|Wastescum skirmishes}}

A collection of skirmishes in the northern section of the Sadeas Princedom which occurred some time in {{rosharan date|1166}}.{{book ref|sa1|16}} The skirmishes were against groups of [[Reshi]] raiders who thought they could take advantage at the instability of Alethkar early after the crowning of [[Gavilar Kholin]].{{book ref|sa1|16}} It can be reasonably assumed that the attempt to repel the raiders was successful.

Soldiers for the battle were brought in from across the Sadeas Princedom, including various darkeyes in [[Hearthstone]].{{book ref|sa1|16}} The Reshi forces notably did not have any Shardblades.{{book ref|sa1|16}}

=== War of Reckoning ({{rosharan date|1167}}-{{rosharan date|1173}}) ===
After the War of Reckoning began, the princedoms Highprince left to travel to the Shattered Plains to fight against the Parshendi. Sadeas left [[Meridas Amaram]] as the defender of the northern section of the princedom, tasked with repelling Reshi and Veden military advances, and attempts by other princedoms to secure their territory.{{book ref|sa1|10}} repelling border incursions from the [[Veden]]s and the [[Reshi]] while the bulk of the Alethi troops were away on the [[Shattered Plains]].{{book ref|sa1|47}}

==== Border Skirmishes ({{rosharan date|1172}}) ====
In late {{rosharan date|1172}}, the Sadeas Princedom entered into a border skirmish with either the [[Vamah princedom|Vamah]] or [[Aladar princedom]].{{book ref|sa1|1}}{{book ref|sa1|47}}{{book ref|sa2|74}} During this battle, Veden Shardbearer [[Helaran Davar]] arrived in an attempt to kill Amaram under orders from the Skybreakers, but he wound up being killed by [[Kaladin]] on the battlefield.{{book ref|sa2|74}} While Kaladin earned the Shards by legal right, Amaram betrayed him by killing his crew and marking him as a slave, taking the Shardblade and Shardplate for himself.{{book ref|sa1|47}}{{book ref|sa1|51}}

=== The True Desolation ({{rosharan date|1173}}- ) ===

Following the [[Everstorm]], the princedom was, like all others, overrun by re-awakened [[Parshmen]]. However, it appears to have weathered this relatively unscathed compared to other princedoms like [[Vamah princedom|Vamah]] or [[Kholin princedom|Kholin]].{{book ref|sa3|10}}
