+ | [[Sadees]] the Sunmaker, the infamous [[Alethkar|Alethi]] warrior, conquered Azir as part of his bid to take over the entire continent during the reign of [[Prime Aqasix]] [[Snoxil]]. The occupation was extremely violent: up to ten percent of the country's population died, many of them due to Sadees seemingly seeking to eradicate the Azish. In some areas, Sadees ordered a certain number of executions a day. In others, he declared all men with hair at a certain length to be killed.{{book ref|sa3|42}} Sadees rationalized this by claiming that the Azish were uncivilized since they did not use [[lighteyes|eye color]] as a basis for their social hierarchy.{{book ref|sa3|65}} |
Following Sadees's passing, his kingdom was split between his sons. Without a true leader, the empire was stretched too thin,{{book ref|sa3|19}} and the Azish regained their independence. |
