== Government == === Monarchy === Teod is a monarchy, with the current king being [[Eventeo]]. It appears that ~~the~~Eventeo ~~king~~and ~~has~~perhaps his wife have absolute power. While the king does hold court, it seems that at least some of the ruling is done by ministers.{{book ref\|Elantris\|17}}{{book ref\|Elantris\|2}} The royal crest of the country is a gold [[Aon]] Teo on a blue backround.{{book ref\|elantris\|38}} After the death of the monarch the crown is supposed to pass to his eldest child, although this doesn’t always happen, instead a different child may assume the throne if the eldest one isn’t in Teod.{{book ref\|Elantris\|58}} The current Crown Prince of [[Teod]] is called [[Teorn]].{{glossary ref\|Elantris\|T}} === Military === Teod's martial strength exists mainly in the form of its navy, which dominates the northern sea, protecting Teod's borders from other nations, mainly the Fjordell Empire. This navy also played a large role in the [[Battle of Teoras]], defending Teod from Fjordell invaders. The country has little to no ground forces, this makes it very hard for Teod to invade another nation.{{book ref\|Elantris\|62}}{{book ref\|Elantris\|61}} The Teo, or at least the ones who are pure [[Aonic]], can become [[Elantrian]]s.{{book ref\|Elantris\|19}} This [[Shaod\|Transformation]] grants them a whole host of abilities and enhancements. The Elantrians are supernaturally strong and fast, and are extremely quick of mind. Their main advantage however, is the use of [[AonDor]]. Even though the Elantrians aren’t an official part of the Teo military, they are allies of Teod and will come to their aid when needed.{{book ref\|Elantris\|62}} === Language and Script === The Teo speak a language called Aonic, this language was originally based on the [[~~Aons~~Aon]]s, although it has ~~evolved~~drifted away from them. The Aons were also ~~formed~~the base for a logographic alphabet used in Arelon and Teod until the development of a phonetic alphabet, which they still use.{{glossary ref\|Elantris\|A}} Teod also has a number of academies, one of which is owned by their king, [[Eventeo]]. The lecturers at some of these academies are very skilled at saying nothing with a lot of words.{{book ref\|Elantris\|2}} With the rise of the [[Fjordell Empire]] putting pressure on Teod and [[Arelon]], kings Eventeo and [[Iadon]] attempted to strengthen their alliance by marrying their children [[Raoden]] and [[Sarene]]. The deal eventually fell through after Raoden succumbed to the [[Reod]], and some trickery by [[Hrathen]] lead to Eventeo converting to [[Shu-Dereth]]. ~~== Geography ==~~ ~~It is one of the more southern nations in the northern continent, separate from [[Sycla]] by the [[Sea of Fjorden]].{{map ref\|Sycla}}~~ ~~There are passes that lead to the [[Rose Empire]].{{tes ref\|98}}~~ ~~== Culture ==~~ ~~The capital of Teod is [[Teoras]], and its ruler is King [[Eventeo]].{{book ref\|elantris\|17}}~~ ~~Teod's martial strength exists mainly in the form of its navy, which dominates the northern sea, protecting Teod's borders from the Fjordell Empire.~~ Unlike the rest of the northern continent, Teod is within Opelon's cultural sphere of influence. For example, the nation's state religion is [[Shu-Korath]], which originated in Opelon. The Teo people are also of [[Aonic]] descent and are therefore related to the [[Arelene]] and [[Dula]] people of Opelon. ~~The royal crest of the country was a gold [[Aon]] Teo on a blue backround.{{book ref\|elantris\|38}}~~ ~~== History ==~~ ~~After the previous ruler died, [[Eventeo]] took the throne against the rightful line of succession, which would have led his brother [[Kiin]] ascending.{{book ref\|elantris\|58}}{{wob ref\|2194}}~~ With the rise of the [[Fjordell Empire]] putting pressure on Teod and [[Arelon]], kings Eventeo and [[Iadon]] attempted to strengthen their alliance by marrying their children [[Raoden]] and [[Sarene]]. The deal eventually fell through after Raoden succumbed to the [[Reod]], and some trickery by [[Hrathen]] lead to Eventeo converting to [[Shu-Dereth]].{{expand}} == Trivia ==
