Dali (Ye: 大理 Dahlii), officially known as the Commonwealth of Dali (Ye: 大理共和國 Dahlii gonqhergwo), is a sovereign state located in southern Ochran, bordering in clockwise order Uluujol and Taizhou. Dali spans an area of ??? square kilometers, and has a population of around 50 million.

Speakers of Zhou-Miyokese and Kra-Dai languages have inhabited modern Dali since antiquity, with the elevated interior settled primarily by Kopho and Nesu peoples while the coast was inhabited by ??? peoples. In the 1st century AD the Nesu kingdom of Khomu had been established in eastern Dali, becoming the first significantly sophisticated state of the area. This was succeeded by confederacies of kingdoms under the leadership of particular powerful tribes, such as the Mengshe or Langqiong states. The later Langqiong period saw the consolidation of the confederacy into an unitary state, the Kingdom of Langqiong. The Zhou civilization to the east and north influenced Langqiong heavily and a Kingdom of Dali was established in 646 based on Zhou structures and high culture. This, combined with Zhou emigrants establishing themselves in Dali, contributed to the region's gradual Zhouicization. In 811 Dali was conquered by the Zhou, and later came under Bayarid rule; a Chorigtol zhuz was placed in charge of the area, but gradually assimilated to local customs. In 14?? the ??? dynasty completely annexed the Dali dependency. In the 19th century, decline of the ??? empire drove the development of localist interests, who were catalysed by Liuism to enter full rebellion amidst the Blossom of Nations. In 1857 the Dali War of Independence ended in a successful secession of the Commonwealth of Dali from the crumbling ???.

Dali is a republic based upon Liuist principles, which include the strict constitution of the polity as a nation-state, and the promotion of the 'small community', manifesting as the network of various traditional social corporations in the country such as lineage associations. Dali's governance is thus heavily devolved, and authority of organic local communities is the main socially organizing force in the country. The federal government is rather similar to the separation of powers model of the West, with the Dalish Debates, a legislative body of notables elected from within social corporations, deciding on actions of the Commonwealth as a whole. The elected President and the executive branch has rather broad prescribed powers, though any government heavily relies on support from across society to maintain power. Dali is considered a complete and typical preservation of Liuist republicanism in practice.

Dali is considered a developing country, ranking average on most economic and human development metrics, though noted to have poor public health. Dali has a nominally free market economy, though allegations of crony capitalism have risen due to the significant involvement of most economic actors with politics. Dali's economy, based on labor-intensive manufacturing, tourism, and mining, was worth an estimated $551 billion by purchasing power in 2019. In interordinate terms, Dali is considered a middle power, with influence concentrated in its immediate vicinity. It is a member of the Forum of Nations and the Sinhaysian Council.
