The Principality of Theodorous and the Parathalassias (Greek: Afthentía Póleos Theodoroús kaí Parathalassías), sometimes shortened to Theodorous and known colloquially as Gothia, is a country located on the Crimean Peninsula, in Eastern Europe. Spanning only 1,589 square kilometres and with a population of only 190 thousand, Theodorous is often considered to be a microstate. Theodorous has only one land border, which it shares with the Ukrainian Autonomous Republic of Crimea. Theodorous has been since 1991 a parliamentary constitutional monarchy, with a Prince as its ceremonial head of state and a Prime Minister exercising executive power.
Name
The Principality is named after the city of Doros, formerly known in Greek as "Theodorous". Today, "Theodorous" is used to refer both to the entire country and to its mountainous interior. The "Parathalassias" (roughly "shoreline) refers to the areas controlled by the Principality located along the western coast of Crimea. The Principality is often known colloquially as "Gothia", in reference to its historical links to the Crimean Goths.
