Ochoccola (Pintachee: Oiwacvkvla, Cuthish: Ococcola), officially the Ochoccola Republic (Pintachee: Oiwacvkvla Tv'leme, Cuthish: Ococcola Leedwealþ) is a sovereign state located on the island of Godrica in the Alvinian archipelago. It shares a land border with Chelagey to the north, and shares maritime borders with X to the east, and Mascyllary Akawhk and X to the south. Ochoccola's capital and largest city is Socapatoy, with other major cities including Belton Ridge, Pinhoti, Cahulga, New Fenmouth, and Atchasapa. With a population of approximately 10.7 million and spanning an area of approximately X square kilometers, Ochoccola is the 19th most populous and Xth largest state in Aurorum.

The ancestors of the Pintachee first inhabited modern day Ochoccola approximately 3,000 years ago, migrating from what is now X.  Berean colonization began in 1506 with the second voyage of Cuthish explorer Wesley Middelton, claiming the area for Cuthland as the Territory of Godrica. Cuthish rule gradually expanded to encompass the entirety of southern Godrica, sharing the island with the Sarracese colony of Chelagey in the north. During the 18th Century, Cuthish Godrica was occupied by Mascylla three times, during the War of the Cuthish Succession, First Cutho-Mascyllary War, and Cuthish Revolutionary War.  The Treaty of Swithtun in 1800, which brought an end to the Revolutionary War, formally ceded the territory to Mascylla as Mascyllary South Godrica. Cuthland regained control during the Second Cutho-Mascyllary War and subsequently administered the territory as Cuthish Ochoccola through the end of the 19th century.

After the Great War, Ochoccola was ruled as an Assembly of Nations mandated under Mascyllary administration.  An independence movement, covertly backed by Cuthland, began to gain traction during the Melasian Crisis, ultimately leading Mascylla to grant Ochoccola independence in 1947.  However, the First Ochoccolan Republic proved to be short lived, and was overthrown by communist revolutionaries in a 1950 coup d'état.  The People's Republic of Ochoccola received substantial economic and military aid from the major socialist powers of the Pamiran Federation and Dulebia throughout the mid-20th century, helping transform the nation into a modern, industrialized nation and regional power in Alvinia.  However, the socialist regime began to weaken with the decline of global Communism during the 1980s, culminating in its overthrow in 1990.

The Ochoccolan Revolution produced a weak democratic government led by Paramount Chief Lamochattee, whose overt diplomatic overtures to Mascylla and the other BDTA powers prompted increased involvement by Cuthland in Ochoccolan affairs. The Cuthish-backed Ochoccolan National Front (ONF) contested the results of the 1993 Ochoccolan general election, leading to nationwide unrest that culminated in a Cuthish invasion during the spring of 1994.  The war resulted in a 16-month long Cuthish military occupation, during which time the 1993 election results were nullified, the Constitution suspended, and Cuthish forces and Ochoccolan nationalist militias carried out a nationwide manhunt for Lamochattee and members of his administration.  Civilian governance returned in September of 1995 with the ratification of a new constitution, severely curtailing civil liberties and placing significant barriers to electoral competition.  Political scientists have accused the post-1995 Ochoccolan government of authoritarianism, and the ONF has remained in power continuously since the end of the Cuthish occupation.

Ochoccola is an emerging economy, with a strong financial sector buoyed by its status as a offshore financial center and tax haven. Tourism is also a major economic driver, and the nation is continuously ranked as one of Aurorum's top international tourist destinations due to its climate and world renowned white sand beaches. Ochoccola has remained closely aligned with Cuthland since the 1994 invasion, reciving substantial economic and military aid from the Cuthish government.  The nation is a member of the Assembly of Nations, Mageiros League, and Middelton Community, the latter of which is headquartered in Socapatoy.

Etymology

The Pintachee name Oiwacvkvla, as well as its Cuthicization, Ococcola, are derived from the word cvcvlv, meaning "red-headed woodpecker."  The red-headed woodpecker is indigenous to Godrica and plays a significant role in Pintachee culture, consequently appearing prominently in Ochoccola's national imagery.
