A small democratic nation known to export wonderfully craft ships; it is a quiet place with only the occasional danger of invasion from Phamos to the north. It sent its ships and merchants all around the continent trading both goods and skills and making its name as an export heavy kingdom.
History
Teluque is a nation descended from those that survived the collapse of Galanese in 1047. Teluque is a small and it has never had ideas of grandeur relying instead on taxation of merchant ships passing along the Flowers River and the sale of some of the best cargo ships to be had. It maintains a small army to ensure that Phamos never gets ideas of pushing southward. Most of the citizens are a closed mouth people, especially when it comes to their shared history with Galanese.
Culture
Naming Conventions
A brief note on naming conventions amongst the Teluque nobility. Names take the form of [Given Name] [Birth House Name] [Past House Affiliations, if any] of the House of [Current House Affiliation]. For example, Leo, the former Player Character, is Leomer Bronwen of the House of Merigold. In the unlikely event that he married into another house, his name would become Leomer Bronwen Merigold of the House of X. For another example, Angus Merigold of the House of Merigold is currently affiliated with the house in which he was born and so is Merigold of the House of Merigold. It is also worth noting that the fostering off of younger children to other Houses, often from slightly less important to slightly more important in the form of a client/patron relationship, is common practice between Teluque noble families.
