Ohutia

Ohutia is a fictional island nation created for use in worldbuilding and educational contexts. It is depicted as an archipelagic republic located in a temperate maritime region, consisting of three main islands and numerous smaller islets, with a total land area of about 28,000 square kilometers and a population around 2.6 million. The terrain features volcanic highlands, mangrove shores, and extensive coral reefs.

Ohutia's official language is Ohutian, a language with Austronesian-inspired roots; English and a local creole are widely taught in schools. The society is multilingual and multicultural, with communities that have long traded along the archipelago's coastlines.

The government is a constitutional parliamentary republic. The president serves as head of state, while the prime minister and cabinet hold executive authority. The unicameral legislature is elected, and the judiciary is independent. Electoral participation is high, and civil rights protections are enshrined in the constitution.

Economically, Ohutia maintains a diversified economy centered on services, tourism, and light manufacturing. Key industries include sustainable aquaculture, agroforestry, and niche electronics. The country is known for its sustainable fisheries and protected marine areas.

Historically, Ohutia is said to have been settled by Seaflower peoples before a colonial period, gaining independence in the mid-20th century after negotiations with a regional federation. Today, Ohutia participates in regional and international organizations, promoting maritime governance, climate resilience, and cultural exchange.

Cultural life centers on maritime heritage, with festivals, music, and traditional crafts. The national identity emphasizes environmental stewardship and regional solidarity.
