Vanilla Network

Introduction
The Vanilla Network is an independently-run company which is part of the Vanilla Earth server.

Background
The Vanilla Network's purpose is to act as a community-run platform for Vanilla Earth members to share and obtain information in regards to nation statistics, news, and maps, among many other things. The current Vanilla Network currently has four teams, including Cartographers, Statisticians, Nation Officials, and the Vanilla Earth News Network (VENN). The Vanilla Network's staff team also runs the Vanilla Earth Fandom.

History
The Vanilla Network was founded by ViViD when he first joined the Vanilla Earth server on 27 August 2020. Before being re-branded, Vanilla Earth was formerly known as Recognized Nations, and its sole purpose being to recognize nations and avoid conflict of contested claims. It was welcomed by many nation leaders who sought a way to solve disputes and conflicts.

It was later re-branded to accommodate new branches dedicated to providing information and news for the Vanilla Earth server, on 4 September 2020. Vanilla Earth News Network, statistics, and maps were added to the current recognized nations list, winning a land-slide victory in the vote that supported the re-branding of the server.
