Etymology
The name of the Kingdom was coined in early June 2021. This name comes from the Polish word Krzak (Bush) and with the ending ja (ia) which was polonized to acja. The name comes from the fact that the area of the Kingdom has long been called Bushes (Krzaki). This was said because once the Kingdom was densely overgrown with trees, grasses, nettles and currants. From 12 May 2020 to 27 June 2021, the kingdom was called Lukland.
