Aiyota (Alternatively Aiota) is a country in the southern part of Arioko. It has a population of just under 200 million (over 150 million of which are situated on the Akarine-Kovotei Belt), ranking it the 6th most populous nation. The country is consisted of an archipelago and almost completed surrounded by the Serkr and the Mádditervaisi, sharing a land border with Aeridani on the Unity Bridge. The country is among the densest in the world (that is not a city state) at 123.2 ppl/sqkm. The Kovotei belt is ~900ppl/sqkm and Vikasa is too dense to mention.

Etymology
It is not quite certain how the name Aiyota came to be, although there are 2 main theories. The first is that it comes from 'ayo-ta, meaning "He speaks culture" (hard to translate). Another theory is that it comes from Lysteriok, specifically Dotruga, it was made of "Ai" - the name already used by Ethanthovan settlements in the north to refer to native Arioki combined with the common Oka suffix -ota this eventually shifted to Aiyota.
Culture and Religion
History
For much of its history Aiyota has remained sovereign, however there were periods where many nations of Lysteriok colonized its north and northeastern shores, the people who descend from this colonists are known as "Lispeveò", "Dotru", "Mirinju" and others
Population
Aiyota is one of the densest, most urban countries in the world, with nearly a fifth of its population living in the capital region. 43.95% live of all Aiyoti residents live in the top six largest cities (Vikasa, Akarine, Aisicio, Azuò, Ciulo and Kyintan Yang). The reason for this is because outside of the coast-hugging mountains is a dangerous land full of ten trillion mosquitoes the size of bears that will rip out your liver to lay its young in.
Kovoté Belt
The Kovoté belt is a chain of cities, towns and villages going from Vikasa through Azuò, Ciulo, Saghi and finally ending south of Aisicio. It is home to about 170 million people, 71.7 million of which live in the major urban areas (45 million people in Vikasa, 11.2 million in Aisicio, 8.7 million in Azuò, 5.4 million in Ciulo and 1.4 million in Saghi-Sakta).
150 million Kovoté Belt (virtually no rural) 29 million Akarine (no rural) 24 million Yoka Tse (no rural at all) 14 million lukito floodplain (virtually fully rural) 9 million V'ángteséra peninsula (rural) 9 million Rural/Islanders
there are 32 million rural people in Aiyota. (about 1/7 of the Aiyoti population)
List of Aiyoti cities by population:
Akarine
Akarine is Aiyota's second largest city at over 25 million people. It is located in the Akarine Autonomous Area shared between Aeridani and Aiyota. There are ~6 million on the Aeridanish side. For nearly all of its history it has been a bustling port, and today is no exception with, at over 600,000 tonnes of cargo passing through annually, it being the biggest port in Arioko and one of the biggest in universalis.
As well as having a major strength handling Arioko's oceanic cargo, it also is a rail and road hub, housing the only connection between Aeridani and Aiyota in Arioko. Because of this it has grown rapidly with people from all across Arioko moving there. Because of this it is one of the few towns in Aiyota with a prevalent Aeridanish majority, with road signs etc. written in both Aiyoti and Aeridanish. Virtually the entire city is bilingual, it constantly being exposed to Aeridanish and Aiyoti media. Because of this constant exposure a unique culture has developed incorporating Aeridanish and Aiyoti cultures and beliefs. It also has its own corrupt "Language"
Ethnic Composition:
- 11 million Aiyoti/Other Native East Serkr
- 10 million Aeridanish/Lysteriokan Descent
- 3 million Mixed
- 1 million Other
Economy
Up to 39% of Aiyota's economic output comes from Yoka Tse, colloquially known as "u'kanhuqírse aiyotavel" ( "the sweatshop of Aiyota"), as minimum wage in Yoka Tse is 0.10 Dorushi/Hour, it is home to 24 million people, 17 million of which live on less then 0.80 dorushi/day (this translates to about $1.60).It has been titled a disaster zone due to severe pollution, restricted human rights, next-to-slave labour, amongst many other things. The level of heavy metals in Aharbik bay (which the main industrial centres are located) is now so high that mercury can be detected as far away as the east coast of the main island. The population of the area is hard to tell due to the large amount of slums, but the largest city (Ansebúlun) is estimated to have ~120,000 inhabitants. There is approximately 1000 cities (with an average population of 24,000)
The region produces:
- -Pharmaceuticals
- -Clothing
- -Electronics
- -Furniture
- -Instruments
- -Vehicles
- -Tools
- -Chemicals
- -Refined Oils
- -Metals
- -Refined Metals
Yoka Tse exports 90% of it's produce to Arioko, The Serkr, Lysteriok and Kaeshar.
There have been plans to "Fix" the area by introducing more sustainable techniques to manufacture products, and increase the minimum wage to the national standard (4.00 dorushi/hour*), which is 40 times more than the current minimum wage. However this could endanger Aiyota's Industrial capabilities, stunting its recent economic growth.

Alright so this is basically just my views and opinions about universalis, obviously nothing is true nor has to be. (i totally didn't steal this)
Who are/is the major world power(s)? imo Ethanthova and Bielosia co-dominate the world, with Blaland & Aeridani just lagging behind.
Which countries are regional and/or upcoming powers? Tjedigar is probably a regional power, as well as Kallisto, Aiyota and Auspikitan. Almost of all of these i see as upcoming powers as well as Darvincia. Probably also the fastly developing nations on Universalis.
Which countries are the richest (per capita)? Aahrus, Nikaesi, Zapfna and Akaji are all rich as they are city-states. Outside of that probably Tjedigar, as all other major countries have too large a population to have a high gdp per capita. Also maybe Darvincia
Which countries are richest (pure wealth)? Definitely the "Big four" Ethanthova, Bielosia, Blaist Blaland and Aeridani as they have large populations and areas.
Which regions manufacture? Blaist Blaland, Aiyota (Yoka Tse), Kallisto, Bielosia?, Ethanthova? Lower Developed Universalis Countries, Maybe Tjedigar, Auspikitan, Darvincia?
What are the tensest relations? Kallisto vs Aeridani, Loviniosan Relations, Ethanthova vs TND (does tnd even exist anymore) although these have cooled off a little
Least tense relations? Arioko, Amalthea and the Serkr, Tjedigar+Kaeshar+Everybody
Official language of Universalis? There shouldn't be one... there should be 6; Blaist, Livikien, Ethanthovan, Aeridanish, Aiyoti, Auspik/most spoken nausikkak lang. Also maybe Kaeshar's language?
Although Aeridani is a distant four on influence, Arioko together makes them more influential then Blaland. (There are nearly 1 billion people in universalis who speak Aiyoti/Aeridanish) There are ~400 million people who speak BOTH Aeridanish and Aiyoti. Although there are plenty of false cognates: Viajetasl - Tears, eye-water Verédatelo - Tears, eye-water
