Geography

The nation of Aramaelle was located in what is now Malkier and Shienar, and was one of the two nations whose northern border actually extended into the Mountains of Dhoom. To the west lay Aridhol, to the north-west Jaramide, Coremanda to the south, and the land held by Tar Valon was located to the east.

The nation of Aramaelle was formed sometime after the Breaking of the World. When the Compact was signed, Mabriam en Shereed, a ta'veren Aes Sedai of the Gray Ajah, was Queen of Aramaelle. Mabriam en Shereed was very instrumental in the formation of the Compact.

One legendary character, Kirukan, was the warrior queen of Aramaelle who carried the Sword of Kirukan that is now wielded by the Swordbearer of Kandor.

The Trolloc Wars

Nothing is known of Aramaelle's participation in the Trolloc Wars, except for the fact that, of course, the nation stood against the Shadow.

The nation of Aramaelle fell to the Shadow sometime during the Wars. We don't know the date, only the fact that Aramaelle did not survive.

According to the maps, Rhamdashar, and later Shienar and Malkier, grew out of the ruins of Aramaelle.
