Otofu (Asakan: Otofu-hofon /ʌtʌse xʌsʌn/) is the capital and largest city of Yakormonyo. According to the 2020 Census, it had 1.1 million residents, with a metropolitan area of 1.8 million. The city lies at the mouth of the Sirion River, expanding westward along the shores of Otofu Bay and the island of Fihoua.
Etymology
The name 'Otofu' derives from the Old Asakan word otó (wet), referring to its location in the mouth of the Sirion River.
History
16th Century (WIP)
Before 1515, Öto Upu (what it was called then) was one of the northernmost towns in the Yaharan Empire, in the Duchy of Ësnvøërvërg. When the Empire broke up, Öto Upu and its surrounding towns of Repöča (Repoşota), Sämežxemí (Samejkhemy), Ítona (Ytona) and Vommä (Voma) declared their independence as the Duchy of Ësnvøërvërg, eventually followed by other towns in the Toşe region. Eventually Ësnvøërvërg was renamed to the Duchy of Otofu. It became the capital of Otofu until the nation united with the neighboring Duchy of Peccy (Pekha), wherein the capital was moved to Ony. On 1565, by order of Duke Otohua Samejkhemy, Oto Upu (renamed to Otofu) became the capital of the United Duchies of Peccy-Otofu.
