Teng (state)

The State of Teng (Chinese: 滕國; pinyin: Ténggúo, 1046–414BC) was a small Chinese state that existed during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period, and was located in the south of modern-day Shandong province. Its territory is now the county-level city of Tengzhou.

Teng's ruling family was the Ji family, with the founder being the 14th brother of King Wu of Zhou. It was conquered and annexed by the State of Yue during the reign of King Goujian of Yue (r. 496–465BC).

Teng was a vassal of the State of Lu, and is famed as the birthplace of the Chinese philosopher Mozi (Micius) and architect Lu Ban. The name of the state survives in both the city of Tengzhou and the Chinese clan name of Teng.

It was annihilated by King Zhugou 朱勾 (d.411 BC) of Yue.

State (magazine)

State.ie (formerly State Magazine) is an Irish website and formerly a monthly music magazine, which launched in April 2008 and ceased to print in January 2009 having published a total of ten issues. The magazine continues online and was voted Best Music Site in 2008 and Best Web Publication in 2010 in the Irish Web Awards. Originally the concept of the magazine involved a hard copy of which there was a charge to purchase, however after six issues it was decided to make the magazine's content free both online and in print. The first issue, April 2008, appeared on Irish shelves on 6 March 2008 and featured Michael Stipe of R.E.M. on the cover. This immediately garnered comparisons between the new magazine's similarities with Hot Press who featured Stipe on their cover at the same time, a move widely thought to be an attempt by Hot Press to stifle State's status as a serious 'alternative' to the more established local magazine. At a price of €5.50, State charged €2 more than Hot Press.
