Packs slung across one shoulder are common, often with a coil of rope fixed to the strap or to the belt. Long coats made of leather or oiled canvas are worn down to the knee. The insides of the coats are lined with fur or sheepskin | ||

| **Food**\\ | **Food**\\ | ||
| + | Food is a simple and straightforward affair in Teagh. A common meal is centered around a stew or pie, such as a shepard's pie or a carrot and lamb stew. Hearty wheat bread is served and eaten with the stew or pie. This is usually accompanied by an applesauce with cinnamon and mint, whichever is available. An apple, plum, or date also accompanies most meals. Alcohol is consumed daily and in liberal amounts. Citizens of Teagh are partial to beer and ales, though a wine made from apples is also common. Though the meals are simple and have little in the way of variety, a great deal of tradition surrounds the meal itself, both in the preparation and consumption. These traditions vary from city to city, and even from family to family | ||

| + | Teagh exports very little of its agricultural products and imports even less | ||
| **Music and Arts**\\ | **Music and Arts**\\ | ||

Drums and bongos made from wood and animal skins, and bulbous wooden flutes are carved in every shape imaginable. Wood carving and sculpture is also a common artistic endeavor. Oral tradition thrives in the form of songs and stories which are often have accompanying compositions | ||
