Afghanistan (1kyh)

In comparison to Home Earth, Afganistan is very empty at this time, with  a low variety of species. The only animals are fish, and the only life out of water is grasses.

Species
Afganistan contains no terrestrial verteberates, and no fully aquatic plants. The flora is made up of grasses, and the fauna is only fish.

Grassland
There are no animals living on land here. The only organisms are grasses. Reed canarygrass is most common, seen accross almost the entire country. There are areas which are too dry for the canarygrass to grow. These areas are totally empty. Cogon grass grows best is damper conditions.

Alongside the canarygrass grows cogon grass. This is able to cope with slightly drier conditions, and in places doesn't face competition from the more common canarygrass.

Rivers
Purple nutsedge grows alongside waterways. It is not found away from water, as it requires the water to spread the bulbs and seeds of the plant.

Grass carp are uncommon. They are herbivorous, and feed on what little floating vegetation they come accross. They are constricted by their diet. Their size allows them to inhabit smaller rivers and streams than their competitor. Their food source is unreliable. It relies on wind to blow, or water to wash away, pieces of plant material. As a result of this food scarcity, populations of grass carp are constantly low. The carp have been seen to occassioanlly jump from the water into any low-lying grass or sedge blades to attempt to knock some vegetation into the water.

Common carp are more common than their smaller counterparts, as they don't rely entirely on plants. Whilst they will take what vegetation they can, the carp will also eat the remains of dead fish lying on the riverbed. They will take flesh that has been sitting on the bed of rdays. This lifestyle has allowed the carp to become successful.

The final species in Afghanistan is the rainbow trout. They feed on eggs, young fish and Rainbow trout will only scavenge fresh meat In desperate times, they will even attempt to take down injured or starving adult fish. When they do, they prefer the far smaller grass carp.
