Aramaelle

Aramaelle was one of the Ten Nations destroyed in the Trolloc Wars. It was one of the Borderlands of its day, although that term did not come into use until some time later.
==Geography==
Aramaelle was located in the northeast of the Westlands and sprawled over a vast area, stretching from the Blight and the Spine of the World to the headwaters of the Haevin. It was bordered by Jaramide and Aridhol to the west and Coremanda, Tar Valon, and Almoren to the south. Aramaelle's capital city was Mafal Dadaranell (which later became Fal Dara) and its other Ogier-built cities were Anolle'sanna, Cuebiyarsande, and Rhahime Naille.
Aramaelle incorporated all of the modern territories of Malkier, Shienar, and Arafel, as well as parts of Kandor. Most of the Black Hills lay within its borders. To the north, it reached into the Mountains of Dhoom.
==History==
Aramaelle was one of the largest and most powerful nations to rise after the Breaking of the World, and seems to have organized itself more quickly than some of the other nations, forging a strong alliance with the Aes Sedai and identifying the still-extant threat from Shadowspawn and Darkfriends. Around the beginning of the third century after the Breaking its queen, Mabriam en Shereed, who was also an Aes Sedai, proposed that the ten nations ally against the remaining threat from the Shadow. With Aes Sedai support, her negotiations were successful and the Compact of the Ten Nations was signed in .
At one point, it was ruled by the warrior Queen Kirukan. 
Aramaelle was the first nation to fall during the Trolloc Wars, with its capital city destroyed.
Following the wars, the nations of Rhamdashar, Elsalam, Roemalle, and Oburun arose from its ruins. Some of the symbols of rule in Aramaelle were passed down to Rhamdashar and eventually to the kings of Malkier and monarchs of Kandor. The Malkieri kings retain a ring forged from the remnants of a ring passed down for over three thousand years, while the rulers of Kandor retain the Sword of Kirukan.
==Trivia==
One of the translators of the Karaethon Cycle, Mangore Kiramin, held the title of Sword-bard of Aramaelle. The function of this role is unknown, but may have been similar to the Swordbearer of Kandor doubling as a poet or man of letters. He lived around 300 AB.
Similar to the modern day Borderlands, it was known for its precious gems. Mat recalls wearing yellow sapphires from Aramaelle in one of his memories that occurs directly before the outbreak of the Trolloc Wars.
