'''Teschego''', officially the '''Teschego Commonwealth''', is a [[Tierrador|Tierradorian]] overseas [[Administrative divisions of Tierrador#Commonwealths|commonwealth]] in northeast [[Peratra]]. Teschego is one of two overseas territories, the other being the [[Saukhin Islands]]. It is also the larger of the two, covering an area of 920,566 square kilometers. Teschego is the largest commonwealth of Tierrador as well, almost 400,000 square kilometers ahead of Ulunkheria, the second largest commonwealth in the Woqalate. Despite this feat, it is one of the least populous commonwealths, with a population of a little over 4 million. It is also the most sparsely populated commonwealth in the country, at about 4.41 inhabitants per square kilometer. Teschego, like all of the other commonwealths, is divided into seven qoyalets, headed by a [[Teschego Legislature|commonwealth | '''Teschego''', officially the '''Teschego Commonwealth''', is a [[Tierrador|Tierradorian]] overseas [[Administrative divisions of Tierrador#Commonwealths|commonwealth]] in northeast [[Peratra]].

Teschego, like all of the other commonwealths, is divided into seven qoyalets, headed by a [[Teschego Legislature|commonwealth legislature]], and is led by a Commonwealth Governor. Teschego’s capital is [[Apin Tasčaí]], in the [[North Teschego Qoyalet]], and its largest city is [[Tataía]]. | ||
Being practically uninhabited for most of its history, with the exception of some indigenous fishing settlements here and there, Teschego was settled by the Tierradorian Confederation in 1812, under the orders of [[Aphío Kostari]]. There, they established numerous fishing settlements of their own along the [[Akúsatine Beach]]. The settlers would eventually designate a main settlement, Apin Tasčaí, which would become the capital of the colony. For almost a decade, the Akúsatine Beach Colonies were used as a haven for sympathizers of the former [[Qabóri Woqalate]]. As the colony expanded more inland, they began to find small Peratran indigenous settlements in the more mountainous region of the area. While the indigenous peoples were hesitant to interact with the Qabóri settlers, they eventually allowed the bartering of goods with them, as the settlers brought many exotic items from mainland Tierrador, which fascinated the natives. The restoration of the Qabóri Woqalate saw a more organized formation of the Teschego Qoyalets, which had expanded even further. | Being practically uninhabited for most of its history, with the exception of some indigenous fishing settlements here and there, Teschego was settled by the Tierradorian Confederation in 1812, under the orders of [[Aphío Kostari]].

The 1978 discovery of oil in the [[Cape of Sudmoll]], along with the completion of the [[Timbia-Teschego Pipeline System]] led to one of the largest oil booms in Tierradorian history. This led to another massive spike in the commonwealth's total revenues and median income for the average person. By 1988, Teschego had become the largest exporter of petroleum products in Tierrador, along with being one of the largest in the world. Tataía was one of the ten major cities involved in the [[Ten Cities' Uprising]] of 1989, which led to the deposing of the Walakee State, and the subsequent [[Woqelee Reinstatement]] returned the Tierradorian Woqalate. The newly-restored imperial state, along with the massive revenues from the 1980s oil boom, allowed for Teschego to significantly upgrade their infrastructure.

By 1998, Teschego had doubled its [[w:Controlled-access highway|motorway system]], connecting every major city within the commonwealth and eventually becoming integrated into the national [[Autorótsai]] system. | ||
Teschego was largely unaffected by the [[1993 Tierradorian financial crisis]], though it began to see a major difference in trade from the mainland, which was at the center of it. With tourism more vital to the economy, environmentalism also rose in importance in Teschego. The [[Teschego Land Preservation Act of 2002]] added 49.4 million acres (200,000 km2) to the [[Heartland Development Board|Heartland Development Board's]] land conservation system, including tributaties of 16 rivers to its river conservation system, 3 million acres (12,000 km2) to [[Imperial Forest Service]] lands, and 46.4 million acres (188,000 km2) to the [[National Parks Authority]] lands. This act has allowed for strict preservation of Teschego's natural beauty, and Teschego also contains the most Imperially-owned land of any commonwealth in the Woqalate. | |||
Today, Teschego is very well-known throughout the world as a staple of Tierrador's vast natural beauty and biodiversity. It has historically also been one of the most visited commonwealths in the country. | |||
