Dogetopia

**Dogetopia**, officially known as the "Official Republic of Dogetopia", is a former puppet state of Dogelandia. Dogetopia was formerly the "Oligarchy of Dogetopia", before its revival in late 2021. Dogetopia is a direct democracy. The country's head of government is the President. It ranks among the lowest in international measurements of government transparency, civil liberties, quality of life, and economic freedom. Dogetopia's long and complex relationship with the United States has had a significant impact on its economy and culture.

## Pre-Emancipation Age

### Old Dogetopia

Inhabited since 2020, Dogetopia was a fledgling nation before being recognized by Dogelandia. This separate nation is now referred to as "Old Dogetopia". There were no more than 10 citizens before its annexation. In late 2020, the leader of Dogetopia established a card identification system, similar to Dogelandia's, with rumors that they were blatantly copying Dogelandia's. Its government structure was originally an absolute monarchy.

The national flag was soon established, which depicted two Doges on either side of a crest that read "wow" on a black and yellow cross background. The nation was fledgling in its first months, until Dogelandia allied with it. Eventually, Dogelandia formed an alliance with Dogetopia, which led both communities to rejoice.

The first election for the position of King began in early February of 2021. Retro Mafia Cheems, the President of Dogelandia, also ran for King of Dogetopia, in an attempt to hold control over both nations. The election went on well and Mafia won. However, by March, Dogetopia was practically a wasteland, with almost no activity whatsoever. Dogelandian officials, including Mafia Cheems, planned a coup d'état against the government and carried it out successfully, annexing the nation.

### Puppet state

   King Mafia of the newly annexed Dogetopia suggested that he would convert the country into a Dogelandian puppet state, and reformed the government into an autocracy, under his own rule. The flag was redesigned as well. The new flag kept a similar design, except the colors were switched to red, white, and blue to symbolize Dogelandia's ownership.

In April, due to foreign issues, Mafia Cheems resigned from King and passed the role down to LawAbidingDoge, an influential politician in Dogelandia at the time. LawAbidingDoge converted the "King" position into "Supreme Rule", copying Dogelandia, while still remaining an autocracy. Soon, Law gave the nation down to Adrian, who then gave Johnny B.B. equal power to rule as well. Dogetopia did not last long, however, and eventually caved in and was abandoned.

## Modern History

### Michael-Age Dogetopia

Dogetopia was revived in November 2021, by the patriotic Dogetopian citizen, MichaelToTheM. He took the name from the old country and repurposed it onto his new government. The country was originally a puppet state of Dogelandia once again, but Dogetopia declared independence 3 days after. Dogelandia did not have any opposition, so they let them go on independently.
