Tiheyteens

Tiheyteens is a fictional demographic and cultural construct used in speculative fiction to describe the adolescent residents of Tihei, a fictional city-state featured in various narratives. The term combines Tihei with the English word teens and is used to explore youth perspectives within a setting that blends advanced technology, communal governance, and environmental stewardship.

In-world usage often centers on ages roughly 13 to 19. Tiheyteens are portrayed as diverse in background and identity, frequently forming peer networks focused on collaboration, creativity, and civic participation. Activities depicted include digital media production, maker-space projects, urban exploration, and neighborhood initiatives that emphasize practical problem solving.

Themes associated with Tiheyteens address resilience amid resource constraints, participation in local governance, and negotiations around privacy and rights in a highly connected society. Narratives commonly highlight mentorship, peer support, and intergenerational dialogue, using the group to explore how young people navigate social change while contributing to their communities.

In fiction and related discourse, Tiheyteens appear in worldbuilding exercises, fan fiction, and collaborative storytelling where readers contribute details about daily life, slang, and community rituals. As a flexible template, the concept allows writers to examine youth agency, collaboration, and identity within speculative environments without anchoring to real-world specifics.
