The People's Republic of Qahaza, abbreviated as the PRQ and also known as Qahazar, is a self-declared autonomous entity within Zalluabed, comprising of the Qahazi Peninsula and the provinces of Qahaza, Gan, and Tuim. The capital and administrative center is Kubani, the largest city is Qahul, and other major cities include Tuim, Boraeere, Toutmoul, and El Tuentis. The PRQ was established during the Zalluabed civil war on November 28th, 2023, when former-Zalluabedi general Suhaib el-Dar Moussa and the regional governors of the aforementioned provinces declared their separation from the executive government in Zakaraban. Days prior, el-Dar Moussa's Kubani Unit carried out drone attacks on Albarinean and Emmirian ports on the Tarijar Strait, prompting Zalluabed's interim-president Jirhanu Bjyala to strip Moussa's military command over concerns that WEDA and the ANS would retaliate.
Internationally, Qahazar's status is still disputed. It is recognized as Zalluabedi territory by most countries, including its foes, due to the controversial standing of el-Dar Moussa and his forces. Additionally, reported persecution of Qahazi Catholics, Batnas, and local Hisrean communities by the Kubani Unit, including mass killings, have been considered a genocide by the Coalition of Crown Albatross' human rights groups.
