=== Nakosa ===
The origin of Nakosa's name came from the three major settlements created after the fall of Gliat Shea. When protesters decided to campaign for independence in 1941, they had to think of a name for the country. they decided to take the 'Na' of Najrk, the 'Ko' of Koraskavah, and the 'Sa' of Sarydiv to make 'Nakosa'.
