'''Otofu City''' (Monyo: ''Otofu Farhofon'' /ʌtʌse saɾxʌsʌn/) is an informal subdivision of Otoihofa Prefecture consisting of the quints of [[Otoihofa-io-Hosimax|Hosimax]], [[Otoihofa-io-Farxa|Farxa]] and [[Otoihofa-io-Mikat|Mikat]]. Hosimax in particular is the most populated quint of [[Yakormonyo]] and has served as the capital of the nation since its independence from Yahara in the 16th century, however modern-day usage of the term "Otofu City" has included the contiguous Farxa and Mikat quints.<!--add the settlement's location within its native country/island/continent; add a brief summary of anything important and interesting related to the settlement-->
'''Otofu''' (Asakan: ''Otofu'' /ɘtɘθɯ/), officially the '''Independent Borough of Otofu-Afanixi''' is the capital and largest city of [[Yakormonyo]].

The city lies at the mouth of the [[Sirion River]], expanding westward along the shores of [[Otofu Bay]] and the islands of [[Orosi Island|Orosi]] and [[Firaua Island|Firaua]]. <!--add the settlement's location within its native country/island/continent; add a brief summary of anything important and interesting related to the settlement-->


==Etymology==
==Etymology==
The name 'Otofu' came from the Old Monyo word ''ottöffu'' (wet), referring to its location in the mouth of the [[Otoihofa River]].
The name 'Otofu' derives from the Old Asakan words ''oto'' "water" and ''fusi'' "tails", referring to its location in the mouth of the [[Sirion River|Sirion Delta]].


==History==
==History==
===16th Century (WIP)===
<small><small>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.</small></small>

The quint of [[Otofu-io-Hosimax|Hosimax]], which houses the federal capital is located at the mouth of the Otoihofa River, which flows into the [[Bay of Simaxifo]]. With 236,000 kavrinh living in its five towns, over two-fifths of the population of Otofu live in this quint. The towns of [[Otofu Municipality|Otofu]] and [[Afanixi]], the two most populous settlements in Yakormonyo, along with the port town of [[Tonion]] are found here.
Although Otofu is officially classified as a borough, it is functionally its own province and acts independent from Sirion Prefecture. In turn, it is separated into eleven wards, which serve as the city's "boroughs".


North of Hosimax is [[Otofu-io-Farxa|Farxa]], which surrounds the [[Bay of Simaxifo]]. Farxa is much bigger and a thriving rural population lives in its eastern extremes, fed by the [[Karinari River]]. The largest settlements here are [[Karinari]] and [[Tufianhuar]], which along with four more towns give a total population of 196,000.


Upstream from the mouth of the Otoihofa leads to the quint of [[Otoihofa-io-Mikat|Mikat]]. It has a combined population of 134,000 in its five towns, the largest being [[Asanfoi]]. In the northeast the town of [[Akanfarion]] is home to large swathes of common land.
