'''Rttirria''' (English: /ˈtɪəriə/, [[Rttirri]]: [ʈʼiɻitʼøku] ''Rttirritteku'') is a country situated on a peninsula on the [[w:Bay of Bengal|Bay of Bengal]] in [[w:Southeast Asia|Southeast Asia]]. Covering an area of about 120,000 sq mi (310,000 km<sup>2</sup>), Rttirria is the [[w:List of sovereign states and dependencies by area|70th largest country]] on Earth, immediately after [[w:Poland|Poland]]. With a population of over 58 million people as of 2015, it is also [[w:List of countries and dependencies by population|the 24th most populous country]], after [[w:Italy|Italy]]. Rttirria's capital is Iharnara, which is its fourth largest city by population at 1.5 million people; its largest city is Efunari, with 4.2 million. It is a [[w:presidential republic|presidential republic]] and [[w:liberal democracy|liberal democracy]] with one of the highest [[w:Human Development Index|Human Development Index]] and [[w:Gross Domestic Product|GDP]] per capita ratings in Southeast Asia.
 
Sharing a land border with [[w:Myanmar|Myanmar]] on the northeast, Rttirria has a diverse topography, ranging from dense tropical rainforest—particularly near the border with Myanmar—to the alpine Rsewakai Mountains in the center and north, steep cliffs and meadows in the southwest, and the volcanic island province of Rseperupu. The population is heavily concentrated in metropolitan areas along the southeastern coast, such as those surrounding the cities of Efunari, Iharnara, Kikai, and Chukkapati; most of the northern part of the country, especially in the Rsewakai Mountains, is very sparsely populated. Most of the population speaks Rttirri, but sizable minority communities speak other indigenous and immigrant languages. The largest religion is [[w:Hinduism|Hinduism]]; other significant minority religions are [[w:Buddhism|Buddhism]], [[w:Islam|Islam]], [[w:Christianity|Christianity]], and [[w:atheism|atheism]].
 
Rttirria is divided into 27 provinces, each of them—except Martirtu—themselves divided into counties. Although the provinces have distinct regional identities, cultures, and dialects of the Rttirri language, the nation has maintained a fairly consistent identity since the 14th century, when Indian colonists and traders brought the 26 kingdoms that make up modern Rttirria into closer contact with one another—the province of Warakitasa was divided into two by British colonists in the 19th century for greater ease of governance. Rttirria remained a [[w:developing country|developing country]] well into the 20th century, punctuated by waves of political riots—especially in Iharnara—in the 1960s and 1970s. Since then, its economy and political standing have blossomed into those of a [[w:middle power|middle power]], propelled by the government's investment in free education, business, technology, tourism, and free trade.
 
==Etymology==
The native name for Rttirria is ''Rttirritteku'', which simply means "the Rttirri homeland" or "the Rttirri nation". The suffix ''-tteku'' is also used in various other names for countries in Rttirri, particularly in Southeast Asia. The etymology of ''Rttirri'' is unknown, but is recorded in inscriptions dating back to the 14th century. One commonly purported origin of the name is ''rtti-rri'' (lit. "mongoose-like"), but this is believed to be a [[w:backronym|backronym]]—the name ''Rttirri'' predates the adjectival suffix ''-rri'', at least in written text. Originally ''-rrirai'' ("to resemble") was used to derive adjectives from nouns, and only later was it simplified to ''-rri''. In fact, the Eastern dialects of the Rttirri language pronounce the two words differently: ''Rttirri'' [ʈʼɨɻ'''ɨ'''] vs. ''rtti-rri'' [ʈʼɨɻ'''i'''].
