Samatkhaoul (Old Ibsa: ⲛ̀ϣⲁⲙⲁⲧ ⲭⲁ̄ⲟⲩⲟⲩⲗ [ənʃamat kʰaːwuːl], Ibsa: ⲛ̀ϣⲙⲱⲧⲭⲱⲟⲩ [n̩ʃmoːtkʰoːw]), less commonly as Teveth (Ibsa: ⲛ̀ⲧⲏⲃⲉⲑ [n̩teːvetʰ]), officially the Republic of Samatkhaoul, is a country located in Churyko.
Samatkhaoul is the direct modern descendant of the Tevethi civilization, which had mostly controlled the fertile riverbanks of the Samatkhaoul River since antiquity. The city-state Ottex had managed to unify the Samatkhaoul River Delta around 3800 BP, establishing the First Imdj of Teveth and setting the precedent for the Amdjal system. Successful amdjal slowly secured territories further upstream. Several amdjal fell under the control of foreign cultures during periods of internal division and weakened political power.
In 320 BP, a series of revolutions overthrew the Thirty-Eighth Imdj, ending Teveth's nearly four-thousand-year continuous monarchic system.

Itepinism is the indigenous religion of the Samatkhaoul people. It is based on rites and doctrines recorded in the Paleo-Tevethi scripture Mafakh Enitepinse (“Book of Creation”). Itepinists worship Etep (Old Ibsa: ⲏⲧⲉⲡ 'Creator', also referred to as ϩⲁⲛ-ⲓϫⲱϫ Han-Idjōdj “Great Spirit”), the primordial creator of the universe. In Itepinist theology, Etep is formless and ineffable, and is said to possess ten distinct hypostases that are simultaneously Etep and expressions of Etep. These ten are collectively called the ere’im (Old Ibsa: ⲉⲣⲉⲓ̄ⲙ; singular ara), and each ara personifies a major cosmic principle.
Itepinist doctrine describes Etep as a primordial being who “slumbered” before creation. Etep is regarded as formless and ineffable and is not depicted anthropomorphically; Etep is not considered visually depictable in his totality. When representation occurs, it is typically limited to the creator’s name or to glyphs expressing Etep’s tenfold nature, and to images of Etep only as manifested in one of the ten hypostases. The Ere’im are treated as personifications of universal forces rather than separate creator gods, and may be invoked individually in ritual according to domain.
The Ere’im are not divided into benevolent and malevolent deities; each ara is a necessary cosmic principle that can manifest constructively or destructively depending on circumstance and rite. This moral non-dualism is often explained through the concept of īmren (Old Ibsa: ⲓ̄ⲙⲣⲉⲛ), a term denoting balanced alignment among seemingly opposing forces rather than the triumph of one “good” power over an “evil” one.
