'''Azir''' is a kingdom in southwest [[Roshar]]. Its capital is [[Azimir]]. The people and language of Azir are both referred to as Azish.
=== Geography ===
Azir is a land-locked state in southwestern [[Roshar]], in the geographical region known as [[Makabak]]. The largest Makabaki state, it covers an area of roughly 1,343,000 km<sup>2</sup>, making it the seventh largest nation on the planet. To the southeast, it is bordered by the nation of [[Emul]] along a river that serves as Azir's only way to access the sea. The smaller nations of [[Tashikk]], [[Yezier]] and [[Desh]] lay to the west, while in the north, it shares a long border with [[Yulay]].
Like most of Makabak, Azir is rather dry and warm compared to the rest of the continent, though it is still cooler than [[Iri]]. There are broad plains and few rivers. A vast mountain range stretches across the country's northern and northeastern edge, with a wide pass leading due north to Yulay. The tower-city of [[Urithiru]] is not far from Azir, in the peaks directly east of [[Azimir]].
; Notable locations
* [[Azimir]] - the capital city of Azir. The [[Makabakam]] [[Oathgate]] is located there.
* [[Bronze Palace]] - the seat of Azish government and home of the [[Prime Aqasix]], in Azimir.
* [[Zawfix]] - a large city on the northern border, known for having shanty towns inside old mines.
