Teshiel

Teshiel, officially the Republic of Teshiel is a sovereign state located in the northern part of the Great Issobel Island and a little island at the west, considered to be part of Central America. It shares the greater island with other two countries, Vermeu and Ebyan, but only sharing borders with the former.

Political division
The country is divided in a group of provinces, remarkably enough all of them finish with "-el", which is the Teshi word for town.

In the Autonomous Province of Sherivel, located in the most southern part of the country creating a panhandle in the border with Vermeu, the most spoken language is Sheri and not Teshi, and it has a different culture towards the rest of the country. Sherivel has some independentist groups fighting for independence, however they don't have popular support. The Teshi government has stated that independence will be given if that is what the people wants, and a referendum was hold in 2017 asking to the population if they wanted Sherivel to be a separated state from Teshiel and the support was only of 37%.

Demographics
Teshiel is home of various types of indigenous people, all of them enter the ethnic group Issobelies along with other natives of Vermeu and Ebyan. These people practice different kinds of religions, most notably Forigaism. However, after being invaded by the United Kingdom, Teshiel received a large number of English and Scottish habitants.

Today, most people in Teshiel are a mix between Issobelies and Europeans. Teshiel also is known for being very welcoming to immigrants, giving the country a wide variety of ethnic groups.

Religion
Forigaism is the most practiced religion in these lands, mostly by natives, but it is also introduced to foreigners too. This religion consists of asking yourself questions at the end of a certain period of time, most of them related to imagine yourself being how you want to be or how you think people around you feel, and the activities that the person has made in that time to reach the emotional state that they wish. In religious places there are always new questions and there is not really a subject to adore or obbey.

There are also religious places for christians, muslims and buddhists, although these represent minorities.

The government does not respond to any religion due to being a lay state, but it gives rights to every person and protections against discrimination regardless of their beliefs.
