'''Kuaijing''' district also known as the '''Kiravix Quarter''' is located in the far northwest of the city. It is a medium to low income area with a significant [[Coscivian civilization|Coscivian]] presence that according to the last census, hovers around 675,000 people. The origins of the Coscivian presence in Mirzak are poorly documented, it is believed the originators of the community were people kidnapped from [[Kiravia]]n colonies like [[Sarolasta]] and [[Seváronsa]] during the [[Daxian Polynesian Wars]]. Imperial Qian authorities may originally have simply intended to use the abductees in land reclamation projects north of the capital but eventually simply abandoned them to their fate. Over time a slum grew organically that would form the nucleus of the modern district. Local [[Daxian people|Daxians]] called it Kuaijing for the Coscivians propensity to plant potatos (errūēln) and purple yam in every available area with any soil. Many local dishes are made with fermented potatos and pond fish; another famous dish among the district's poor is called pag-pag which is fried chicken scraps and bones usually scavenged from restaurant garbage bins. Most Coscivians in the district are adherents of the Coscivian Orthodox Church, being forced to practice it in secret until the relaxation of religious persecution in 2011 with the Law of Religious Bodies. Religious life is centered on the Coscivian Orthodox Church of Saint Ragmunihaśix, a small and rotting wooden building near the center of the district. Repeated requests to be allowed to renovate the church have been made to [[Directorate of Religious Affairs]], all of which are invariably turned down.
