Celandel is a fictional geographical location that appears in the fantasy novel "The Name of the Wind" by Patrick Rothfuss. It is a region located in the Commonwealth of the Commonwealth, a large and influential political entity in the world of Temerant. Celandel is described as a land of rolling hills and fertile plains, known for its agriculture and its vibrant merchant cities. It is situated to the west of the capital city of Tarbean, a major port and trade hub.

The region is characterized by its mild climate and abundant natural resources, which have contributed to its prosperity. Celandel is not a single unified kingdom but rather a collection of independent duchies and baronies that owe allegiance to the Commonwealth. This decentralized political structure has fostered a sense of regional identity and autonomy among its inhabitants. The economy of Celandel is primarily agricultural, with crops such as grain, fruit, and livestock being major exports. The region is also known for its skilled artisans and craftsmen, who produce a variety of goods for trade.

In the narrative of "The Name of the Wind," Celandel serves as a backdrop for several significant events in the life of the protagonist, Kvothe. He travels through the region, encountering its people and experiencing its culture. The land itself is depicted as a place of both beauty and hardship, reflecting the complex and often challenging world that Kvothe navigates. While specific details about its history and political intricacies are not extensively explored, Celandel plays a role in establishing the broader geography and political landscape of Temerant.
