The flag of the Veggie Caliphate

The two suns represent different cultures, and the cloud represents them coming together, no matter how many challenges they face.  The evergreen trees represent a long lasting eco-friendly nation.  The grass represents peace, and the sky represents an endless world of possibilities.

Basic Geography

The VC is a large republic in Africa, and one of the three African superpowers.  There are many landmarks in the VC, though the most famous is the Royal Farm in Abuja.  It is a giagantic strip of land that grows 1-20 specimens of every species and subspecies of every fruit and vegetable.  It also has a breeding room, were plants are combined to create new delicious flavors.  Another landmark is the Caliphate Falls, a newly discovered waterfall home to many exclusive species of animals and plants.  Many of the Sudanese pyramids are also hot tourist destinations.

Listed below are the VC's 15 states

Abuja

Aranea

Canis

Cattus

Criceta

Equator

Galapagos

Lacerta

Mus

Nigeria

Piscis

Pssitacus

Santa Barbara

Sciurus

Turtur

Involvement with the war

The Veggie Caliphate has declared war on the Grande Empire, the Imperium Sanctus, and the Vampire Empire.  Is in a civil war with a cult that sprung up in Yemen, but has now taken more land.  Regions under the cult's control are: Criceta, Canis, Cattus, Mus, Piscis, and Pssitacus.  They will be retaken soon, hopefully.

The VC is receiving aid from the PBE, the GIE, the Blaze, the Macedons, and Chilefornia; and in return is helping to drive the Grandians out of Macedonian land.

War has been declared on the Imperium Sanctus and the Vampire Empire (thanks to intel from Dollyfroggy, the infamous reporter), though has not attacked yet.

The New World Triumvirate

The New World Triumvirate is a group of three people supporting (or pulling the strings on) the Grandian side of WWIII.  Intel has it that they hypnotized Alexander and are controlling him.  They also have a known stock of super soldiers, also being mind controlled.  They seem to quarrel a lot though so the VC hopes to use that to their advantage.  The three people (Colin, Viniga, and Agent X), each are respected figures in many countries and regions fighting with the Grandians.  Agent X is a notoriously good spy working with the Orange Jackets, the people who hypnotized Alexander.  Viniga has a lot of power and authority in the Yemeni Cult.  Colin was believed to be in close contact  with Napoleon, supporting uprisings in Macedonian territory; until his recent capture by the PBE intelligence agency.

Outro

It was super fun making this blog (or making at again, whatever you'd like).  I hope you enjoyed reading it as well.  I will be leaving the old blog up, if anyone would like to compare blogs.  Any questions about the VC may be asked in chat, I'll likely be able to answer them.  Last but not least, thank you so much to Geopro for bringing this wonderful universe into existence.  Cya!

Nice! I'll have to update ours as well. I do have a question: what happens if you're a carnivore in the VC?

Absolutely nothing. Think of it as Vegetarians get more rights, not carnivores get less

Ok. I wasn't sure if people who exclusively eat meat would be treated differently to those who are omnivorous.

I don’t really know why anyone in their right mind would go carnivorous, though.

Carnivores are also generally frowned upon by the public

How so? Surely a respectable nation would not take pride in the fact that some people have more rights than others.

It’s not something stupid like racism, I genuinely believe that the world would be a better place with full vegetarianism.

And you solve this by oppressing people you don't agree with? I hate to argue but this is not equality.

The type of rights that vegetarians have are things like extra pay from the goverment.

I’m not oppressing meat eaters. Think of yourself. How much rights do you have. That’s how much a meat eater in the VC has.

Sep 27, 2022
That's oppression. You give less rights to certain people because you don't agree with them. It'd be like if the government gave all omnivores a pass on taxes.

I don't mean to offend anyone, but meat is pretty good imo. Although not eating plants at all seems a little extreme, I'd never give up meat.

The people have their decision. It’s not like I’m forcing them to live in the VC, or not even letting them convert to vegetarianism.

You’re missing the point. I don’t give them less rights, i give the vegetarians more. Imagine a line. Implying that meat eaters get less would be putting vegetarians right on that line and meat eaters under. Implying that vegetarians get more would be putting meat eaters on that line, and vegetarians over (which is how it is).

The first part doesn't make sense. I mean, sure, you could just leave or convert… but nobody wants to do that! That's what freedom is all about.

And regarding your second point — I'm not making any sort of argument about "default" rights. I'm just saying that everyone should have equal rights, as a good and free nation should.

If you wanna declare war on me and change things up, Qy, feel free to. You’ll find that many other empires have rights that favor vegetarians, or JetPunkers, of left handers, or whatever.

If everyone were to have equal rights that would completely ruin the point of being a nation rooted on vegetarianism. Getting the extra rights that come with it are a reward

Perhaps not a declaration of war, at least not at moment. For now just a boycott, and by Scott I'll encourage others to join!

What a crime against freedom and equality.

(Britain doesn't give rewards to monarchists, by the way.)

Think about how countries in the VC were before the VC took over. It’s not like meat eaters are suddenly being stripped of everything.

If you go to Chilefornia, vegetarians and JetPunkers have more rights. If you go to the PBE, lefty’s have more rights. This doesn’t exist in just the VC.

Actually would you mind listing all these extra rights that vegetarians have? Curious.

Higher pay. (Additional money comes from the government, not their employees).

Three wishes on vegetarian day.

Free membership to the Royal Farm.

Citizenship

Food is generally cheaper

Ability to run for a government job

As well other tiny things that really don’t impact life at all

I think that it depends on the nation. MCM's choice is to give vegetarians more rights (not that I agree with that), but that's his choice, and I respect that. Svalbard, like America, is founded on the belief that everyone deserves equal rights, and that too is perfectly fine. And just remember, this is just a fun fictional universe of reality.

it is significantly harder to get citizenship if you’re a meat eater, though not entirely impossible

It’s definitely not something permanent. Going by the dates in earlier DOTJE blogs, the VC has been in existence for less than a year. It’s really just a matter of trust. As of now, in the midst of a war, it’s not likely to change soon, but possibly if the war happens to end early.

Well, I'm surprised how Natureism became minority and Stumpism the new minority.
