==History==

Rhotia emerged from [[Dericania]], a region in east-central Levantia long associated with the [[Holy Levantine Empire]] and with the [[Latinic people|Latinic]] heartland of [[Great Levantia]] before it. The northern portions of Dericania shared a common language, Rhotian, which emerged from Latin in a distinct form by the 9th and 10th centuries. The Rhotian-speaking lands were divided into hundreds of feudal units that were part of the Holy Levantine Empire until the 19th century, when a process known as mediatization - which included both diplomatic consolidations and significant warfare - began to gradually reduce the number of constituent parts of the Empire. During this period, Rhotians became associated with [[Derian identity]], a nationalist concept which claimed a common nation of Dericania. Nationalists of the Derian movement launched a major uprising that began the [[Second Great War]] in Levantia. Rhotia was briefly part of a nominal [[Deric Republic]] established by the nationalists before they were ultimately defeated. Following the defeat, a conflict known as the [[Third Fratricide]] divided Dericania between moderate nationalists, who enjoyed international support, and socialist insurrectionaries. Out of the wake of that conflict, five states were established in what is today Rhotia. The five - Allaria, Corcra, Orclenia, Kronenia, and Vineisa - all were established as new states which formally consolidated many predecessor Imperial subject entities. All five adopted Rhotian as a national language, beginning the cultural process of Rhotianization, or the dismissal of the notion of a Derian identity in favor of a Rhotian identity.

Rhotia is a {{wp|federal republic|federal}}, {{wp|constitutional republic}} with various democratic values. It is governed by the Fundamental Statute of 2030, which serves as the Republic's {{wp|constitution}}. In style, and particularly in nomenclature, it is based partly on the [[Fiannria#Government_and_politics|government of Fiannria]], the oldest democratic republic in [[Levantia]], although in form it resembles a more straightforward {{wp|presidential republic}}. Rhotia is relatively unique among members of the [[Levantine Union]] in that its {{wp|head of state}} and {{wp|head of government}} are the same office, eschewing both the semi-presidential model of [[Fiannria]], the [[Julian republic|Julian]] form of governance, as well as the more conventional {{wp|constitutional monarchy|constitutional monarchical systems}} employed by states like [[Lapody]] and [[Anglei]].
