Mirzak is the capital and largest city of the Democratic Republic of Daxia. With a total population within its metropolitan area standing at over twenty five million people, it is the largest urban agglomeration in Audonia and one of the largest in the world. Founded beside the Nianyu river, the city's sprawl has extended itself over both banks with numerous bridges across built over the years. The Mirzak Metropolitan Area is a special zone that is governed separately from Central Province. The specially appointed position of Prefect of Mirzak has vast administrative powers and resources at its disposal, making whoever holds the position one of the most powerful political figures in Daxia. The current prefect is Hao Fard, a Party stalwart who rose through the security organs and was appointed to run the city in 2025. Mirzak is home to the Chancellor's residence, the federal ministries, the People's Assembly, the Chamber of Productive Sectors and other legislative and administrative bodies. The capital is by far the wealthiest and most economically vibrant city in Daxia, the unrivaled economic engine of the country. Demographically it is home to various minority groups from all of Audonia and further abroad.
The city has existed under various names since at least 2100 BC, the oldest records available give it the name Laozun which means 'the old village'. The Yang dynasty renamed it to Zhongguang or the central expanse when it designated it as its new capital and from that point on the city became the seat of power of all Daxian dynasties that followed Yang. The fall of the Qian dynasty to the coup orchestrated by Dai Hanjian and Qiu Heng ocurred almost exclusively in the capital. The city was renamed once again during the presidency of Qiu Heng who thought Zhongguang was a name too reminiscent of the imperial ways. The name of Mirzak was created by a supercomputer programmed by the National Institute of Robotics, the computer produced a line of binary code that translated to "Mirzak, ruler of cities". The supercomputer appeared to be attempting to communicate that Mirzak was its own name and that it intended to assume the governance of the capital and other cities. The supercomputer was shut down before it could enact any nefarious plans. When Qiu Heng was informed of the incident he thought it was auspicious and decided to rename the capital to Mirzak.
