The House of Telois-Tresia (Amathian: Ⰽⰰⱄⰰ ⰴⰵ Ⱅⰵⰾⱁⰹⱄ-Ⱅⱃⰵⱄⰹⰰ, tr. Casa de Telois-Tresia) also known as the House of Telois-Amathia (Ⰽⰰⱄⰰ ⰴⰵ Ⱅⰵⰾⱁⰹⱄ-Ⰰⰿⰰⱚⰹⰰ, Casa de Telois-Amathia) was the ruling dynasty of the Kingdom of Amathia during its entire existence. It is a branch of the Gaullican royal House of Telois, founded in 1729 through the marriage between the Gaullican prince Michel de Telois to the Amathian princess Maria de Tresia, the daughter of the last unanimously recognized monarch of the Unio Trium Nationum, a marriage which united several factions of the fragmented Amathian nobility and helped establish an absolute monarchy in an Eastern Euclean style led from Arciluco. The last Amathian king, Manuel II of Amathia, was deposed during the Amathian Civil War with the defeat of the monarchist forces and the establishment of the Amathian Council Republic. The royal line however survived in the king's person, and with him being saved from death and escorted from the country by remaining loyalists, going into exile in Caldia.

The current royal family is formed by the old deposed king and his direct descendants, with all other cadet branches and relatives of the dynasty at the time of the Great War having been executed by the Council Republic, and later posthumously rehabilitated by the Democratic Republic as part of a larger process of reconciliation with the royal family and with the Amathian diaspora of exiles. The family continues to mostly live in Caldia, and only occasionally returns to the Royal Palace of Arciluco, most of which has been organized into a museum. The entire family continues to maintain a neutral and well-balanced position in regards to the Amathian political scene, following the wishes of the deposed king, but the pro-monarchy support in the country has been steadily rising, and a monarchic political party is represented in the Amathian Senate.
