The Allied States of Ropa-Topia are both a nation and an alliance in Uhuhland. As an alliance, it consists of the nations Uhuh-Ropa and Uhuh-Topia. The Isle of Uhm, once territory of Uhuh-Topia, is now shared territory between the two nations and from this island the Ropa-Topian Alliance is administered.

Flag
The Ropa-Topian flag combines elements from the flags of both nations: the red-white-blue stripes from Uhuh-Ropa and the cross and the colour orange from Uhuh-Topia. The vertical red stripe is intersected by the horizontal blue stripe, like on the Uhuh-Topian flag, but now it is meant to symbolize the past: the people (red) of both nations separated by a blue border (which is formed by rivers for 70%). The other pair of stripes symbolizes the present and future, with the people bridging the river/border.

When Emperor George IV succeeded his father in 1920, the new emperor didn't make it a secret that he wanted Uhuh-Topia and Uhuh-Ropa to be united again, and by force if necessary. The Uhuh-Topian parliament tried to prevent this on several occasions, but in 1925 George IV fired the entire government.
In the following years there were several conflicts in the border regions, which culminated in George IV authorizing the use of chemical weapons in February 1933 on what the emperor referred to as 'military targets'. A hundred thousand civilians were killed and approximately three thousand Uhuh-Ropean soldiers. This action was immediately followed by the Uhuh-Topian armed forces marching into the Uhuh-Ropean capital Ropadam and war was declared officially.
The occupation of Ropadam only lasted ten months, until Uhuh-Topian army leaders mutinied and arrested the emperor. George IV was delivered to the Uhuh-Ropean government and imprisoned until the government in Uhuh-Topia was reinstated in early 1934. The first act of this new government was an immediate surrender of the armed forces within Uhuh-Ropa and George IV was deposed. The former emperor was turned over to the Uhuh-Topian authorities, who decided he had to be held accountable for the massacres a year earlier, whether George was a member of the royal family or not. A join Uhuh-Topian/Uhuh-Ropean tribunal found him guilty of all charges, sentenced him to death and at the end of the year, George IV was executed by firing squad.
The Year Without Emperor
After the deposal and execution of Emperor George IV, the Uhuh-Topian government considered forming a republic, but the royal family was still very popular (except for the last emperor, now commonly referred to as George the Massacrer) and George's brother James in particular. James was crowned Emperor by the Uhuh-Topian government in 1935.
International Sports
See article about the Ropa-Topian Sports Alliance.
The Ropa-Topian Sports Alliance (RTSA) is a collaboration of the Uhuh-Topian Imperial Sports Association (ISA) and the Uhuh-Ropean Ministry of Sports. The RTSA was founded to show the world that there were no more conflicts between the peoples of both nations and instead of competing against each other, sportsmen from Uhuh-Ropa and Uhuh-Topia form a unified team in any major sporting event outside Uhuhland (like the Olympic Games and the football World Cup).
