Theodoro-Samos, officially the Roman Republic of the East (1827-1839) or the Roman Empire of the East (1839-1908), was a state in the Eastern Mediterranean with territories on the Crimean Peninsula, in the Aegean, and on the north-west coast of Africa. The territories of Theodoro-Samos now lie within Greece, Mauritania, and Theodorous and the Parathalassias (which regards itself as the successor state to Theodoro-Samos).

Formed in 1827 after the dissolution of the Greco-Theodoran Republic, it was initially composed of two federated states, the Theodoran Republic (in southern Crimea) and the Stratopolity of Samos (comprising Samos and other adjacent islands). In 1839, the state switched from a republican system of governance to become an elective constitutional monarchy under a system known as the Peristrophy. In 1884, due to the Berlin Conference, Theodoro-Samos was granted the area of Cabo Blanco in north-west Africa as a colony, called the Exarchate of Africa; Theodoro-Samos held this colony for 23 years, until 1907, when the outbreak of an anti-colonial rebellion allowed France to take control of the area. The federation was ultimately dissolved in 1908, when the Ottoman Empire under its new Vizier Kâmil Pasha invaded and occupied Samos. Theodoro, in southern Crimea, would remain independent for another 10 years as the Serene Principality of Theodorous and the Parathalassias, albeit without any overseas territories.
