Shirazam (Aryi: ཥྷིརཟམ), officially the Republic of Shirazam (ཉོམྷུརིཡེ ཥྷིརཟམ), is a country located in Central Ochran, extending over the lower courses of the Great Rivers: the Sin-Darya (སིནདརྱ) and the Bozorg-Darya (བོཟོརྒདརྱ). It share land border with Zilung to the north and Chulam Sea define its eastern border. It's westernmost border are the Bülam Heights. Most of the country is dominated by a steppe biome and the population is concentrated on the shores of the Great Rivers and especially at their confluence: the Green Delta (མོསལསབྯ, Mosalasabz). Skandiar (ཥྐནྡཱིར) is the country' largest city and is located on the Chuyam coast, on the leftside of the Green Delta. But the capital is located deeper inland, at the confluence of the Sin and Bozorg-Darya: Shirkal (ཤིརྐལ).
Shirazam was the birthplace of the ancient Avestani culture which gave birth to the Azagartians and all other related ethnic and cultural groups. Throughout its history, Shirazam has known three different imperial periods: the Azgaratian Empire, the Bayarid Empire, and the Zilung Empire. After 175 years of occupation, tensions between Zilung and the local Ayars people came to their gruesome conclusion during the Ayar War of Independence. Shirazam as a state went through multiple constitution: from a tribal society to a authoritarian state to a democratic republic.
The official language of Shirazam is {{wp|Tajik language|Ayar} and is spoken by the absolute majority of the population. Small minorities of Shirazamites speak Chuyan or Zilung as their first language, but they have no official status and are on the decline.
Shirazam is a single executive republic and is often considered the only Democracy in Central Ochran when compared to Zilungpa Oligarchy and Syalat Theocracy.
