Portuqa

Portuqa is a major city in the Calamaran Empire, which sits upon an island of the same name. It is one of the largest and wealthiest cities in the Empire, and serves as an important connection to the Western seas.
Portuqa is also the name of the island upon which the city of Portuqa sits.
The emblem of Portuqa is a large severed crab claw, on a green and white background. This represents Krangaterra, the mythical giant crab guardian of the city, and also represents Greenblood's victory over this creature.
=== Background ===
The city of Portuqa was, in ancient times, the heart of the Tuquessi Empire, which was later conquered by Calamar. Most of the old Tuquessi structures were destroyed and replaced by the Calamaran Empire, in an effort to completely subjugate them.
According to myth, the ancient Tuquessi Empire worshipped an enormous crab, the size of an island, called 'Krangaterra'. This is why the war between Calamar and the Tuquessi was colloquially referred to as "The War of the Squid and the Crab". The Calamaran Empire has mostly crushed the worship of Krangaterra, however some few ancient shrines remain. Krangaterra's existance is unconfirmed, though the island of Portuqa is known to have many large, monstrous crustaceans, some of which can grow to the size of a horse.
