Sarnai Ulus, better known by its English name Rose Khanate, is a faction founded by Lana on Canvas 93. It is focused on "griefing, LARPing, [th]e palette color Rose (#31), [th]e Uma Musume: Pretty Derby franchise, any[th]ing else related to horses, and [th]e memory of a bygone era of Pxls". It is intended to be a spiritual successor to the now inactive Flandre.
History
Canvas 93
Lana, a freelance artist at the time, founded the Rose Khanate out of a dissatisfaction with the state of canvas politics. Flandre's involvement on Pxls was waning, creating an overly peaceful site culture. Large factions claimed so much of the canvas that she struggled to find space for more freelance artwork, and she considered several works on the canvas oversized. To combat these problems, Lana founded the Rose Khanate faction on August 30, 2025. The Khanate claimed ownership of Lana's art piece, the Uma Musume character Agnes Tachyon and began expanding a rose-colored background out from it. The Khanate carried out a brief griefing campaign against Precious Family Pixelers, due to Lana perceiving them as one of the main offenders when it came to oversized art, but the attack failed. The Khanate then shifted its focus to expanding its background, bringing it into conflict with the Swarm.

Rose-Swarm border conflict: An ongoing low-intensity conflict between Rose Khanate's background and Neuro-sama's Swarm's lattice. The inciting incident of the conflict was Lana's repeated griefs and inflammatory comments towards the Swarm ally PFam earlier on the canvas. Small skirmishes began when the two backgrounds met on September 10, and would continue over the following days. Beginning on the 13th, the skirmishes escalated into a large-scale invasion by Swarm into Rose territory. By the end of the day, the invasion had been repulsed, and the Khanate launched a counter-attack on the Swarm lattice. Swarm raids into Rose territory continued on the 14th and 15th, being repulsed each time. The Khanate responded to the persistent raids first by seizing territory from the Swarm's lattice, then by launching a full counter-invasion. By the morning of the 16th, the Khanate expanded significantly into the Swarm's lattice.
The Khanate received diplomatic support from Brown Pixelstuck, whose leader Caden88 publicly denounced Swarm aggression. Militarily, Rose forces were bolstered by volunteers from the Flandre discord. In a shocking twist of fate, an old comrade of Lana appeared from nowhere to assist the Khanate's war effort. Eduard, former leader of the Abyss, returned from a four year absence from Pxls to fight on Lana's side once again. Rose shamans interpreted the miraculous revival as the gods blessing their war. Feeling emboldened, Rose placers overextended their advance, occupying more territory than they could feasibly hold. At the same time, the Swarm was amassing the largest army yet seen throughout the course of the conflict. By the evening of the 16th, the Rose advance was routed, and the Swarm began storming Rose territory on several fronts.
The Rose Khanate's territory was reduced roughly to its pre-war borders in the first three hours of the Swarm's renewed invasion. Shortly thereafter, volunteers from Precious Family Pixelers arrived to the front lines on the side of the Swarm. These combined developments prompted Lana to reach out directly to the Swarm Council to broker a ceasefire.
