'''Ochoccola''' ({{wp|Muscogee language|Pintachee}}: ''Oiwacvkvla'', {{wp|Anglish|Cuthish}}: ''Ococcola''), officially the '''Ochoccola Republic''' ({{wp|Muscogee language|Pintachee}}: ''Oiwacvkvla Tv'leme'', {{wp|Anglish|Cuthish}}: ''Ococcola Leedwealþ'') is a {{wp|Sovereign state|sovereign state}} located on the island of [[X]] in the [[X]] archipelago. It shares a land border with [[Chelagey]] to the north, and shares maritime borders with [[X]] to the east and [[X]] to the south.
'''Ochoccola''' ({{wp|Muscogee language|Pintachee}}: ''Oiwacvkvla'', {{wp|Anglish|Cuthish}}: ''Ococcola''), officially the '''Ochoccolan State''' ({{wp|Muscogee language|Pintachee}}: ''Oiwacvkvla em Tv'lwv'', {{wp|Anglish|Cuthish}}: ''Ococcolish Ric'') is a {{wp|Sovereign state|sovereign state}} located on the island of [[Godrica]] of the Greater Alvines in the [[Alvinia|Alvinian]] archipelago. It shares a land border with [[Chelagey]] to the north, and shares maritime borders with [[X]] to the east and [[Akawhk]] 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 [[List of Auroran countries by different metrices|19th most populous]] and Xth largest state in Aurorum.
 
The ancestors of the {{wp|Muscogee|Pintachee}} first inhabited modern day Ochoccola approximately 3,000 years ago, migrating from what is now X.  [[Berea]]n colonization began in 1506 with the second voyage of [[Cuthland|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 [[Sarrac]]ese colony of [[Chelagey]] in the north.  Cuthish Godrica was occupied by [[Mascylla]] three times in the 18th century, 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]] from 1841 onward.
 
Following the [[Great War (Aurorum)|Great War]], Ochoccola was governed as an [[Assembly of Nations]] mandate under [[Ochoccola Trust Territory|Mascyllary administration]].  An independence movement, covertly backed by Cuthland, began to gain traction during the [[Melasian Crisis]], ultimately leading Mascylla to grant Ochoccola [[Ochoccolan Independence Act of 1947|sovereignty]] in 1947.  However, the [[First Ochoccolan Republic]] proved to be short lived, and was overthrown by communist revolutionaries in a [[1950 Ochoccolan coup d'état|1950 coup d'état]].  The [[People's Republic of Ochoccola]] received substantial economic and military aid from the major socialist powers of [[People's Republic of Dulebia|Dulebia]] and the [[Pamiran Federation|FPCR]] throughout the mid-20th century, helping transform the nation into a modern, industrialized nation and a 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 of Ochoccola|Paramount Chief]] [[Lamochattee]], whose overt diplomatic overtures to Mascylla and the other [[Berean Defense Treaty Association|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|1993 general election]], leading to [[1993-4 unrest in Ochoccola|nationwide unrest]] that precipitated a [[Ochoccola War|Cuthish invasion]] during the spring of 1994.  The war resulted in a 16-month long [[Cuthish occupation of Ochoccola|Cuthish military occupation]], during which time the 1993 election results were nullified, the Constitution was 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 [[1995 Constitution of Ochoccola|constitution]], which severely curtailed civil liberties and institutionalized significant barriers to electoral competition.  Political scientists have accused the post-1995 Ochoccolan government of {{wp|Authoritarianism|authoritarianism}}, and the ONF has remained in power continuously since the end of Cuthish occupation.
 
Ochoccola is an {{wp|Emerging market|emerging economy}} driven by agriculture, mining, finance, insurance, and tourism.  Although gold and uranium mining have historically dominated, finance has emerged as the largest industry since the early 2000s due to the nation's status as an {{wp|Offshore financial centre|offshore financial center}} and {{wp|Tax haven|tax haven}}.  Tourism is also a significant source of foreign capital, with the [[Middelton Islands]] drawing millions of visitors every summer due to their warm, sunny climate and world renowned white sand beaches.  The nation has remained closely aligned with Cuthland since the 1994 invasion, receiving substantial financial and material aid from the Cuthish government.  Ochoccola is a member of the [[Assembly of Nations]], [[Mageiros League]], and [[Middelton Community]], the latter of which is headquartered in Socapatoy.
 
==Etymology==
 
The {{wp|Muscogee language|Pintachee}} name ''Oiwacvkvla'', as well as its {{wp|Anglish|Cuthicization}}, ''Ococcola'', are derived from the word ''cvcvlv'', meaning "{{wp|Red-headed woodpecker|red-headed woodpecker}}."  The red-headed woodpecker is indigenous to [[Godrica]] and plays a significant role in {{wp|Muscogee|Pintachee}} culture, consequently appearing prominently in Ochoccola's national imagery.

Ochoccola (Pintachee: Oiwacvkvla, Cuthish: Ococcola), officially the Ochoccolan State (Pintachee: Oiwacvkvla em Tv'lwv, Cuthish: Ococcolish Ric) is a sovereign state located on the island of Godrica of the Greater Alvines in the Alvinian archipelago. It shares a land border with Chelagey to the north, and shares maritime borders with X to the east and Akawhk 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. Cuthish Godrica was occupied by Mascylla three times in the 18th century, 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 from 1841 onward.

Following the Great War, Ochoccola was governed as an Assembly of Nations mandate under Mascyllary administration.  An independence movement, covertly backed by Cuthland, began to gain traction during the Melasian Crisis, ultimately leading Mascylla to grant Ochoccola sovereignty 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 Dulebia and the FPCR throughout the mid-20th century, helping transform the nation into a modern, industrialized nation and a 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 general election, leading to nationwide unrest that precipitated 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 was 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, which severely curtailed civil liberties and institutionalized 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 Cuthish occupation.

Ochoccola is an emerging economy driven by agriculture, mining, finance, insurance, and tourism. Although gold and uranium mining have historically dominated, finance has emerged as the largest industry since the early 2000s due to the nation's status as an offshore financial center and tax haven. Tourism is also a significant source of foreign capital, with the Middelton Islands drawing millions of visitors every summer due to their warm, sunny climate and world renowned white sand beaches. The nation has remained closely aligned with Cuthland since the 1994 invasion, receiving substantial financial and material aid from the Cuthish government.  Ochoccola 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.

Tourism is the third largest industry in Ochoccola after finance and mining, making up 17.6% of the nation's GDP and employing approximately 300,000 workers. Although tourism was almost non-existent during the communist era, the industry expanded rapidly during the 2000s, with annual revenues growing more than 500% between 2000 and 2010. More than half of Ochoccola's 5 million annual visitors originate from the member states of the Mageiros League, a reflection of the nation's close ties with Cuthland and its allies.

The most commonly visited tourist destination in Ochoccola is the Middelton Islands, with more than 95% of all tourists who visit the nation spending at least part of their stay on the archipelago.
