National Motto: “Strength in Faith, Glory in Honor”

The Kingdom of Zagrosia is a rising mountain monarchy nestled deep within the majestic, cloud-kissed peaks of the Zagros Range. A land where ancient tradition meets modern ambition, Zagrosia is home to a proud, conservative Kurdish people who honor their ancestry while building a powerful future. At its heart lies Azmira, the royal capital—a shining city of stone and steel, where minarets pierce the sky and government halls blend Islamic artistry with technological grace.

Once a quiet kingdom of shepherds, mystics, and tribes, Zagrosia has transformed into a modernizing empire—its influence growing across the region. New roads coil through the mountains, trade routes expand, and the Royal Guard stands as one of the most disciplined and feared forces in the region.

Government and Royal Lineage

Zagrosia is ruled by a revered monarchy, led by His Majesty, the Malik, whose bloodline is traced back to the unifiers of the highlands. While modern parliament structures exist, true authority rests with the Crown, which governs in close consultation with tribal elders and Islamic scholars. Law and order are tightly maintained, rooted in Shariah principles alongside state reform.

Culture and Faith

Islam—Sunni and deeply conservative—is the foundation of daily life. The adhan (call to prayer) echoes through every village and city, while Quranic verses adorn public buildings. Women and men alike follow traditional codes of dress and honor, and tribal customs remain strong in rural areas.

The Lion and the Sun, the national symbol, represent courage and divine blessing. The lion, called “Shêr Azadi”, symbolizes power and royal might. The sun behind it is the light of faith and guidance, believed to protect Zagrosia in times of darkness.

Military and Expansion

Zagrosia is an empire in expansion, driven by both vision and necessity. With neighboring lands weakened by internal strife, the Zagrosian Crown sees opportunity. The Royal Armed Forces are well-trained and equipped, especially elite mountain units who patrol the high passes and borders. Military service is a great honor, and every soldier wears the Sagro lion badge on their chest.

Landscape and Way of Life

The kingdom’s landscape is awe-inspiring—towering mountains, clear rivers, dense pine forests, and ancient cave shrines. Though modern cities have risen, many citizens still live in traditional stone homes clinging to cliffsides. Life is hard but deeply rooted, and honor is everything.

From carpet weaving and epic poetry to the rhythmic dapîr dance, Zagrosia’s cultural soul beats strong in every household.
