'''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 legislature]], and is led by a Commonwealth Governor. Teschego’s capital is [[Apin Tascaí]], 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 Taschaí, 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, by Tierradorian settlers who were discontent with the country’s government under [[Aphío Kostari]].

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.
