The remaining decades of the 19th century were dominated by the [[Teschego Frontier]], which played a major role in the development and expansion of the commonwealth. By the 1890s, Teschego had expanded into its modern borders, though still lacking heavily in population. Many of the population centers in Teschego were small mountain towns, which were mostly dominated by the indigenous peoples of the area, which had seen a large population boom. Many residents in mainland Tierrador had demanded that the Woqalate pull its influence out of Teschego, seeing it as a deadweight colony. These attitudes would change in the early 1910s, when settlers would find gold in the Teschego mountains. This began a large gold rush which saw the colony’s population double by 1920. In 1959, Teschego was admitted as a commonwealth of Tierrador. | The remaining decades of the 19th century were dominated by the [[Teschego Frontier]], which played a major role in the development and expansion of the commonwealth.

The abundance of valuable natural resources have enabled Teschego, with one of the smallest commonwealth economies, to have the one of the highest median incomes, with the extraction of valuable minerals, natural gas and oil, and commercial fishing dominating the Teschego’s economy. Teschego also has a large tourism industry, due to its small population and location in the Polynesian region of Peratra. The [[Government of Tierrador|Imperial Government]] owns more than half the land in Teschego, which is used for national parks, national forests, wildlife refuges, and [[Tierradorian Defense Force|TDF]] military bases. Teschego has the second-largest non-Qabóri [[Abio]] population percentage, with 53% of the population belonging to three different Polynesian indigenous nations. | The abundance of valuable natural resources have enabled Teschego, with one of the smallest commonwealth economies, to have the one of the highest median incomes, with the extraction of valuable minerals, natural gas and oil, and commercial fishing dominating the Teschego’s economy.
