Chawpisuyu (/ˈtʃɔːpɪsəju/), officially the Autonomous Administration of Chawpisuyu and also known as the Liberated Territories (Runakuna: Qespiq llaqtakuna, Veleazan: Territorios liberados), is a de facto autonomous region between Rocia and other country comprising of the territories under the protection of the Popular Liberation Forces. The political status of Chawpisuyu is heavily debated: it is almost universally recognised as an integral part of Rocia's provinces of Glyt provide names, and while it is often referred to as an unrecognised state it has never declared independence proper, and furthermore rejects classification as a state as part of its anarchistic ideology. Chawpisuyu has an estimated population of slightly over two million people and and a controlled territory of X km² (Y sqmi).
The Autonomous Administration has its roots in the first Mirandista uprising in 1990, a popular uprising by the Mirandista Protection Army (EMP) against the long-lasting repression of indigenous people, institutional corruption, rampant poverty, and more directly the sale of mineral rights to international companies in Chawpisuyu. The failure of negotiations with glyt's dude's government led to the conflict continuing, until the election of Fernándo Ortolano allowing for renewed talks, leading to the Ceasefire of Ica in 2003 and cooperation between the Rocian government and the EMP. Following the ousting of Ortolano in 2012, the EMP joined multiple other groups to form the Popular Liberation Forces (FPL) and started a second uprising, officially declaring the formation of the Autonomous Administration of Chawpisuyu on 11 November 2012.
Chawpisuyu is officially an union of freely associated communes. Each commune has three main administrative structures: the commissariat responsible for the everyday administration, the land commission in charge of natural resources and territorial delimitation, and the militia being a community policy agency. The communes form federations that are the basis for the Chawpisuyan eight regions, each electing members to constitute the Popular Assembly. The Popular Assembly serve as the main legislative body for the Autonomous Administration, appoints ministers to the Executive Assembly, and elect a figurehead president. The FPL officially serve as the armed forces of Chawpisuyu, but do not hold power at any level of government and is formally forbidden to by the constitution.
The Autonomous Administration ideology reflects libertarian socialism and promotes anti-imperialism, decentralisation, direct democracy, environmentalism, indigenous rights, pluralism, and gender equality. Supporters claim that those values are represented in its constitution, society, and politics, and that Chawpisuyu has the potential to be a viable model to Rocia and Rennekka as a whole. Conversely, opponents to the Autonomous Administration have raised various criticisms, such as the extensive influence of the FPL and particularly of the EMP, risks of Runakunan majoritarianism, perceived transnational ambitions, repression of dissidents, and allegations of war crimes in their fight against Rocian governmental forces and the Western Self-Defence Groups.
