Daytanistan, officially the Democratic Republic of Daytanistan (Dushtoo: Dimankratan Ripooblykan al Daytanistan), is a small nation in Central Asia. Although its people all share the one nationality, before the Straw Hat Revolution, Daytans lived in dozens of different tribes, which can themselves be grouped into three different groups. The largest group comprised the native tribes spoke Dushtoo and were referred to as Daytars. The second largest group consisted of northern tribes who settled in Daytanistan in the second century CE, who spoke a corrupted Greek dialect, and were called Ashoons. The smallest group, called the Zirkshes migrated eastwards to Daytanistan in the tenth century, and spoke Farsi. The Ashoon language was incorporated into Dushtoo as Ashtoon and Daytar tribes intermixed, traded, made war, and formed alliances between each other over the centuries. Farsi, on the other hand, had very little influence on Dushtoo, although the Zirkshe religion, Islam, eventually became the predominant religion amongst most Daytar and Ashoon tribes. Although today most Daytans have forgotten their tribe, they are all aware of their tribal group, which is referred to in Dushtoo as one's shoobdiman.
Today Daytanistan is ruled by the Daytan Communist Workers Party under the leadership of General Secretary Farrokh Nugat, the grandson of one of the leaders of the Straw Hat Revolution. There is, however, no individual official head of state or government in Daytanistan, with those roles instead being held by the Supreme Daytan People's Council, a body of twelve members of whom Nugat is only one. Six of the members of this council are appointed by the Central Administrative Committee of the Daytan Communist Workers Party, and the other six are elected by each regional conference of the Daytan Communist Workers Party as representatives of the Party in their region. In practice this means that the General Secretary has complete control over appointments to the Supreme Daytan People's Council. The Supreme Daytan People's Council has no official leader but the General Secretary has always been its de facto head and consequently the de facto head of state and government of Daytanistan.
