The '''10th House of Betazed''' (otherwise known as the house of Perseverance) is one of many ancient houses on Betazed. To be a member of such a social class in Betazoid culture is to be considered descendants of the Goddess, Karawati, herself and a part of influential ancestry. Members of Houses are active in the dynamics and politics of their planet.

==History==
In 2300, The [[Third House of Betazed|Third]], [[Fourth House of Betazed|Fourth]], [[Sixth House of Betazed|Sixth]], [[Seventh House of Betazed|Seventh]], [[Tenth House of Betazed|Tenth]] and [[Twelfth House of Betazed|Twelfth]] Houses of Betazed join together to demand land from the [[Ninth House of Betazed]].  Their claim is that their undeveloped land was loaned to the Ninth House by other houses centuries earlier for the benefit of all of Betazed, but there is no historical record of this ever happening.  As a result, the Ninth House denies their claims and sticks to the position that it’s their land.  This becomes a political issue between the houses, who demand "their" now agriculturally rich land back.
In 2341 the Third, Fourth, Sixth, Seventh, Tenth, Twelfth houses join together to begin unprecedented legal action in the [[Betazoid Government Council]] against the Ninth house to get "their" land back.
Also in 2341, The [[Fifth House of Betazed]] revealed that [[Astrad Ukinix|Astradem Ukinix]] of the [[Ninth House of Betazed]] was having an affair with the then matriarch of the [[Tenth House of Betazed|Tenth House]].  Subsequently, the [[Fifth House of Betazed|Fifth House]], being the "House of Nobility", warned all of the house matriarchs not to engage in "unsanctioned and secret romantic relationships" with members of other houses. This resulted in the then Matriarch of the [[Fourth House of Betazed]] confessing to having an affair - also with Astradem Ukinix<ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-veritas/c/iV_hXJVEfKU/m/AU34Wk6JAgAJ ''"Patriarchy"''], Alacem and Astradem Ukinix.</ref>.
In 2368, all legal action by other houses (including the Tenth House) against the Ninth House finally succeeded.  As a result, The Tenth House received ownership of a small amount of land from the Ninth House.
In 2375, The Fourth house in conjunction with the Third, Sixth, Seventh, Tenth and Twelfth houses unofficially took over administration of Ninth House, given its weakened position as a result of the [[Dominion War]].  An employee of the Fourth House was appointed to lead the administration.  In 2376, the appointed administration legally became official after the Matriarch of the Ninth House reluctantly agreed to cede control.
