The Eurasian Domo-kun (Gorilla euramonstrum) is one of three members of the gorilla genus. It serves as the national animal of Eurasia and is the defining feature on the reverse side of the five cicero banknote.

Male domo-kuns are known as virs, while a female domo-kun is known as a mulier. Youth domo-kuns are referred to as juevenes.

Historical and cultural value

The widespread population of domo-kuns in Eurasia has led to their status as a almost-revered creature - since 1560, it has been illegal to kill a domo-kun in any circumstance then self-defence.

Physical description

The Eurasian domo-kun is a brown, fuzzy creature that stands about 2.3 metres high (average adult height). The feature sharp, white teeth designed mainly for the consumption of meat, though they possess the capacity to consume vegetables and fruits, which they often do.

Their eyes are a vivid black colour, often referred to as the "burning eyes of the domo-kun."
