The Utlian Mor Crab is the national animal of [[Utlia]] and the symbol of freedom on the island. The crab was discovered before any permanent settlements were founded on the island and they roamed the coast. Early tribes and civilizations used these crabs as a consistent food source. They were originally chosen as the national animal by Utlia's first king [[Wynlid Liamia]] for their strong connection to the history and [[Azzta|religion]] of Utlia. In modern times, crabs are eaten mostly during holidays and on religious days. |

Cultural significance
Mor Crabs are special as they are the same crab that Azzta is, except smaller, they are the most holy foods within Utlia. In Azztanism by Vyren Kiyrn it is said that when Azzta landed on Utlia and entered his cave, he spawned the crabs of the world, starting with the Mor crab first.
Export
On 11-3 1 PC the Republic of Utlia sent a basket of eight live Mor Crabs and ten UT85 rifles to the Nation of Niueyjar.
Utlian sailor crisis
On 15-5 2 PC, Utlian sailors were present in the city of Erak delivering Utlian Mor Crabs to Vidar Astridson. During their stay, Erak was attacked by Reformers who were successfully repelled. To hide the Niueyjara Civil War from the outside world Vidar had the crew of the ship detained whilst attempting to cover up the attack by claiming that an earthquake had injured the sailors and that they were receiving medical attention. Both President of Utlia Yyme Braia and his ally Harakar Oken of Akaria did not believe this beginning the Utlian Sailor Crisis leading the Akarian-Utlian Alliance to launch a rescue mission to extract the Utlian, which they did on 20-5 2 PC.
