The People's Front for the Liberation of Nir Kra was set up in 1966 (5 BKz) by a recent immigrant to Nir Kra (which later became Kzuu Mai), Karl Yokavic. Originally intended to be nothing but a small protest group simply voicing the feelings of the people, it eventually swelled to a huge size and was the force behind the Kzuu Maian Revolution on 6th October 1971 (0).

For the first year of its existence, the PFLNK was just what Yokavic had expected it to be; it handed out fliers and pamphlets to the ordinary people (the ones that could read, that is), and sprayed grafitti over some of the less-protected government buildings. However, that all changed when Lii Dan Kzuu found and joined the organisation. He insisted that it became powerful, and bombarded the entire population of the country with anti-monarchy propaganda, although the majority of it was relatively accurate. He also often made motivating speeches in secret places, all the time living underground with a false identity to avoid arrest.

So effective were Kzuu's advertising campaigns that by 1971 (0), the PFLNK had five thousand members, around a thousand of which were in the capital. These thousand were the ones chosen to fight in the Revolution, and fight they did, although almost all were killed in the process. After the Revolution the PFLNK was dissolved, and the Glorious Thousand from the Revolution, Karl Yokavic among them, were declared martyrs.
