'''Iotopha''' ({{wp|Armenian language|Iotophan}}: ''Iotopha'' {{IPAc-en|l|ə|ˈ|t|ɒ|f|ə|ɡ|ə}}), officially the '''Democratic Republic of Iotopha''' (Iotophan: Իոտոպհա Դեմոկրատական ​​հանրապետuթյuն; Iotophā Demokratakan ​​Hanrapetut’yun), is a sovereign state in western [[Ajax#Continents|Ochran]]. It is boarded to the northeast by XXXX, to the east by YYYY, to the north by BLANK, and to the south by BLANK2, while having a maritime border to the south along the Ozeros Sea, and Periclean Sea to the northwest. With just over 51 million inhabitants, it is the Xth largest nation in the [[Ajax|world]], and Xth largest on [[Ajax#Continents|Ochran]].

(Insert a historical blurb here about some ancient history). By 1920, growing popular unrest was leading to constitutional reforms with the once {{wp|absolute monarchy}}, but quickly turned into a violent revolution between royalists and an alliance of left and right-wing republican groups, which ultimately culminated in the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Iotopha. A military coup launched in 1982 saw the communist regime nearly ousted from power, prompting a civil war between the military, communist regime loyalists and a brief royal restoration movement. The conflict ended in 1986 when communist leadership agreed to an armistice with the military leadership to democratize Iotopha.
 
Today, Iotopha is the Xth largest economy in the [[Ajax|world]]. Though the economy has grown in recent years, it still suffers from high unemployment rate and poverty, and with high income inequality. According to international reports, human rights in Iotopha are considered poor. The regime is considered undemocratic due to the oppressive tactics used against critics of the government and members of the opposition. Iotopha is a member of the [[Forum of Nations]], [[Kiso Pact]], and {other org}.
==Etymology==
Iotopha is derived from the [[Hellenic language|Hellenic]] term λωτοφάγοι (''lōtophagoi''), roughly translating to <nowiki>"lotus-eaters"</nowiki>. The term was first applied to the inhabitants of the {NAME} island off the eastern coast of the country, who Hellenic explorers observed regularly consumed lotus fruits. Since the Xth century, Iotopha has been informally used in the area, and was first attested to domestically in the 5th century AD.

Iotopha features a diverse climate, ranging from {{wp|semi-arid climate|semi-arid}} in the X to {{wp|Humid continental climate|humid}} in the X to temperate forests in the west near Lake Dhaka.
===Fauna===
===Regions, provinces and cities===
Iotopha is divided into six regions, which are further subdivided into 30 provinces, each governed by a governor elected by popular vote by its residents. Provinces are then divided into districts and again into cities, towns, villages or other forms of municipalities.
 
Iotopha has a high urban growth rate, with urbanization growing from 19% to 68% between 1950 and 2000. The [[Forum of Nations]] projects that nearly 75% of the population will be urban by 2030. The largest settlements are Kajnadzor, Sophene, and Tiridatopolis <!--City of Tiridates-->. Overall, there are 7 cities with populations over 1 million, and a total of X with a population over 450,000.
 
Afar is the capital of Iotopha, and has a population of over 7.8 million. Since 1923, it has been the economical, cultural and focus of the country's transportation and communication networks.
 
The second largest city in Iotopha is Tisfun, with a population of around 4.1 million, and also serves as the capital of NAME province. It once served as the capital of Tiespid of Iotopha, and seat of the YYYY dynasty. Tisfun is a city of key religious importance to {{wp|Zoroastrianism|Mazdayasnae}} within Iotopha, as it features the largest and oldest {{wp|fire temple}} in the country, Adur Burzen-Mihr.

According to the constitution, Iotopha is a {{wp|federal}} {{wp|semi-presidential}} republic, wherein the [[President of Iotopha|President]] is the {{wp|head of state}} and {{wp|head of government}}. The Democratic Republic of Iotopha is structured as a multi-party democracy with an elected head of state, legislature, and appointed judiciary. The constitution sets out the governing principles and established Iotopha as a federal state.
 
The president is directly elected by popular vote every six years, serving as the head of state, and government, and chief executive of the country. Legislative power is vested by the unicameral [[People's National Assembly of Iotopha|People's National Assembly]]. The office of Premier was replaced by the office of Vice President, serving as the President's chief deputy following the 2019 constitutional referendum. The judiciary is nominally independent from both the executive and legislative branches of government, though the president and ruling party are given large powers in appointing or dismissing judges. The [[High Constitutional Court of Iotopha|High Constitutional Court]] is the highest court in the country, and is charged with determinations of constitutionality of laws and decrees, while also hearing cases on appeal from lower courts, or stripping political parties of funding or outright banning them.
 
===Law and criminal justice===
The Constitution of Iotopha was adopted on 7 January 1986 by popular referendum with 62.4% approval, and took effect on 7 May 1986. The constitution sets out the fundamentals of the government, rule of law, an ideological neutrality of the state, political pluralism, competitive elections and a separation of powers, guaranteeing fundamental human rights to all citizens regardless of religion.
 
The [[President of Iotopha|President]] appoints all members of the civil judiciary, and chief public prosecutor upon the consent of the [[People's National Assembly of Iotopha|People's National Assembly]]. There are civil, criminal, and sanctioned religious courts for recognized religions where jurists are appointed among local clerics or priests. Religious courts have no appeal system, but may be brought in civil or criminal courts instead. Special courts are convened for crimes of treason, blasphemy, and attempts to subvert the Constitution.
 
===Foreign Relations===
===Military===
{{main|Armed Forces of Iotopha|People's Army of Iotopha|Republican Guard of Iotopha}}
The [[President of Iotopha]] and the executive branch is responsible for managing the military of Iotopha, with the President serving as commander-in-chief of the armed forces. Day-to-day management is undertaken by the [[Cabinet of Iotopha|Ministry of Defense]] and the [[Republican Guard of Iotopha|Republican Guard]]. Iotopha has over 400,000 active members in the armed forces throughout its three branches and independent military agencies.
 
Iotophan armed forces can be broken down into two groups, the [[People's Army of Iotopha]] and the [[Republican Guard of Iotopha|Republican Guard]]. The People's Army consists of three branches: [[Iotophan Army|Army]], [[Iotophan Navy|Navy]], [[Iotophan Air Force|Air Force]]. All agencies within the People's Army and the Republican Guard operate their own intelligence apparatus, though the [[Department for the Protection of the People's Revolution|WPRG]] is the nation's chief domestic and foreign intelligence agency.
 
The country has developed its own minor arms industry, but has primarily relied upon foreign suppliers since the collapse of the communist regime in 1986.

Iotopha is a {{wp|secular state}} with no state religion, and freedom of religion is guaranteed under the [[Constitution of Iotopha]]. Historically, Iotopha had widespread religious diversity, though the [[Iotophan Apostolic-Baptist Church]] was the dominant faith and state church. Now only holds a plurality following according to the 2015 census, with X% of the population adherents of Apostolic-Baptist. Irreligion or spiritual but not religious and atheism are the next largest groups. A study by the [[University of Castellum Iohannes XIII#Constituent colleges|Prince of Youth Institute]] determined that the communist era's repression of religion was widespread and that anti-religous law instituted before 1972 is the chief cause for these numbers. It is estimated that before 1972, as few as 21% of Iotophans remained Apostolic-Baptist.
 
A number of other religious groups reside in Iotopha, with Christian groups making up 5% of the population. {{wp|Nestorianism}} is the largest christian group within the country, followed by [[Orthodox Churches in Ajax#Evangelical Orthodox|Evangelical Orthodox]]and {{wp|Catholic Church|Fabrian Catholicism}}. [[Azdarin]] and Judaism also have a significant presence in Iotopha, the former among the Ayrumi minority. Before the 1920 revolution, followers of the Jewish faith consisted of almost 8% of the population, but the revolution and [[Law of Return (Yisrael)|Yisraeli return laws]] have seen that number drop to barely 1% of the country's modern population. Other faiths make up at least 4% of the population include: Zoroastrianism, [[Sadhana]], and [[N'nhivara]].
===Languages===
{{wp|Armenian language|Iotophan}} is the sole official language of Iotopha, and is spoken by an overwhelming majority of the population. Several other dialects are spoken throughout the country, with {{wp|Western Armenian|Vardenian}} holding the status of a recognized language for historical purposes. The most recent census shows that nearly 98% of all inhabitants speak Iotophan, though this remains a topic of debate as many point out that such a statistic is politically motivated.
 
The largest minority language is [[wikipedia:Azerbaijani language|Ayrumi]], which is the native language of an ethnic group of the same name. Jhilam holds the status of a regional language, with most of its speakers living in Heskîf region of eastern Iotopha.
 
Notable minority languages include [[Wikipedia:Pontic greek|Mysian]], {language}, and {language}. [[Wikipedia:Pontic greek|Mysian]] is widely spoken in northern coastal regions along the Periclean in Sophene.
 
===Ethnic Groups===
Ethnic groups within Iotopha are thought to mirror the make up of languages spoken within the country. As with language, Iotophans make up the largest ethnic group in the country; however as with language, there is a political motive suspected to be behind census numbers. The most recent government census reported that 92% of inhabitants were Iotophans. Opponents suggest that this statistic is caused by confusing census questions and documents that lead to a desired outcome. Estimates from NGOs and the [[Belisarian Community|BC]] place ethnic Iotophans are anywhere from 65-77% of the population. 
 
Ethnic Ayrumi make up the second largest ethnic group, with NGOs placing around 20% of the population. Due to its location near Scipia, a significant Hellenic population remains along Iotopha's coastal regions. The Hellenic population was once much larger, though saw widespread emigration during and after the [[Iotophan revolution of 1920|1920 revolution]].
