Postal codes within the Kingdom of Tietero are five-character alphanumeric codes used for mail sorting and delivery across the island. The codes consist of a prefix and an addressing code, written as a single string of characters without spaces or dashes.
Structure
Each Tieteran postal code is structured into two parts:
Prefix
The prefix begins with a digit from 2 to 9, indicating the canton where the address is located. This digit is followed by one or two letters that denote the nearest major city or the specific postal distribution region.
Addressing Code
Following the prefix, the addressing code is composed of digits only. It specifies the particular city, town, or village within the canton to which the address belongs.
Current Prefixes
The following table displays the prefixes currently in use, with each combination representing a specific canton and distribution area:
| Canton | Prefixes |
|---|---|
| Balenoj | 3A, 3C, 3L |
| Cervo | 4U |
| Kapitalo | 9KP |
| Korvok | 5P, 5C, 5L |
| Kuniklos | 2N, 2W, 2E |
| Lutroy | 9NT |
| Manatinow | 7X, 7A, 7B |
| Strigot | 6G, 6H |
History
The Tieteran postal code system was introduced in 965 TT as part of a nationwide initiative to modernize mail sorting and improve delivery efficiency. Initially, the system used only three digit numeric codes, which soon proved inadequate for the growing population and expanding infrastructure.
In 917 TT, the government revamped the system to incorporate alphanumeric codes, establishing the current format with prefixes representing cantons. This new setup improved speed and accuracy as cross-island delivery increased with the expansion of railroads, and as mail sorting shifted from manual to machine processing.
