Kaznia


 * For the Earth One nation, see Republic of Kasnia.
 * For the future nation on Earth One, see Kasnia Conglomerate.

Kaznia or Kasnia, is a country in Siberia in the Earth Thirty-Eight universe. It is a possible counterpart to the Republic of Kasnia.

History
Kasnian terrorists were one of the groups linked to John Corben's activities as a mercenary. In 2018 the remains of Reign, infused with the magic of Kryptonian Witches, separated from her battle with Supergirl and dissipated, before materializing in Siberia. From them walked a copy of Supergirl, who was met by a number of soldiers in winter uniforms. As the Supergirl copy was later seen digging in an underground mine in Southern Kaznia, it is likely that the soldiers stationed in Siberia were also Kaznian. The Supergirl copy's digging has caused an earthquake in the mountains, causing an emminent train crash, which was luckily prevented by the real Supergirl, who also grabbed a bottle of brand Kaznian alcoholic drink. The Supergirl copy continued her digging under the watch of soldiers.

Language and geography
The spoken language is cimilar to Russian, and the written language is a variant of the Cyrilic writing system, indicating that Kasnian is a Slavic language. Russia and Kaznia are thus frequently confused on Earth Thirty-Eight, which James Olsen demonstrated. Unlike Earth One's Republic of Kasnia it is not certain whether Kaznia is located in the Balkans, as the Supergirl copy's arrival in Siberia would suggest that Kaznian troops and territories are stationed in that region.

Trivia

 * The names "Kasnia" and "Kaznia" are used interchangeably on Earth Thirty-Eight

Behind the scenes

 * In DC Comics, Kaznia or Kasnia is a country in the Balkans region of Europe, similar to its portrayal in Arrow and DC's Legends of Tomorrow. The country's history of civil wars and strife references that of the historical country of Yugoslavia.
 * Although it later appeared in the comics, the Republic of Kasnia originates from the DC Animated Universe (1992-2006), rather than the main DC Comics universe.
