The Four Directions
Standard of the Emperor of Zaqo, Retainer Era
National Flag of the Councildom of Arantar

The National Flag of the Empire of Mirukuz was a green banner with silver corners and a golden centre, each of which has an animal at the centre of each box: the gryphon, the star-horse, the sunbird, and the raptor, with another larger gryphon at the centre. The colour scheme used for this flag was based on the usage of green as a cultural colour for the Vozonids and the attire of Sarmelonid Emperors: green (emerald) for inspiration, gold for righteousness, and silver (obsidian) for honour.

МІРУКУЗ

The Empire of Mirukuz (Vozonid: "Unicorn", named after the nearly-extinct unicorn herds that grazed there) was a state founded during the early years of the Zaqovian dynasty on Vozolaz, when a certain prince was crowned by the locals as their Emperor instead of the Zaqovian Emperors who were lackeys to the Thralondian Empire to the further east. Its terrain mostly consists of sandy desert, with arid scrubland along the northwestern hills and some wetlands around the major rivers and the southwest. Thousands of years ago in the Sarmelonid era, that region was the main centre of Konjor activity on the Vozonid imperial heartland, boasting attractions such as the infamous Sawerzan Resort and its abusive conditions.

It spent much of its earlier years on building its forces and launching raids against Zaqo to reunify Vozolaz under its Green Emperors' reigns, but many of those wars ended with only some controlled districts and a spent economy. Criminal groups that fled other countries flocked into Mirukuz, where they overthrew its monarchy and clashed for control until one powerful group asserted itself as the new monarchs of Mirukuz.

The changed economy under the crime lords was propped up by slavery and funds from the Tornarin Empire, who used Mirukuz to seize Vozolaz (or Zaqo) from the Thralondian Empire's influence. Its slavery -- a method fuelled by needing more numbers after wars and disasters and to make itself look superior -- was notorious for its extreme brutality, torturing thousands of human and non-human (especially the hated Ontemazei) slaves for its clients' twisted pleasures. Eventually, it fuelled several revolts, from the Rakolan protests that ended in a massacre, to a bigger slave revolt that instead had many survivors escape to neighbouring Bīvos, and the Trimalleans' brutal takeover.

When the Trimalleans dominated its neighbours, the Mirkuzians faced poorer living conditions as their society was focused more on the War in Honvo. Attempts to evict locals from the Arvonnoz Hills into cramped apartments in the big cities infuriated the locals, who organised a fourth revolt that overthrew their Trimallean rulers a few years later. They later established Mirukuz as a republic, and it became one of several constituent states of the Federal Republic of Azgo (later Vozolaz).
