Qurac is an Arab nation and one of the world's largest networks of state-sponsored terrorism. It's capitol city is Abu Dhabi. Residents of Qurac are referred to as Quraci. Qurac is located south of Kuwait and is bordered to the east by the Persian Gulf across from Iran. It is bordered to the west by Saudi Arabia. During the presidency of Hurrambi Marlo, Qurac developed a sophisticated military apparatus, which included high-tech weaponry and war machines. Though he always denied it, Marlo was behind an attack on the city of Metropolis that employed such war machines. Invariably, such action earned him the attention of Superman.
