A Caliph is generally the leader of a single, unified group of Muslims spanning as far as Muslims have reached. This could range from a few nations, a planet, several systems, to an entire universe. In the Greater Omniverse, the nature of Caliphates and Caliphs could differ by Multiverse, possibly having the position of a leader of all Muslims be the only common trait.
Realms of the Multiverse
Pre planetary unificatuon
The only known existing Caliphate in this Multiverse is the Caliphate of Earth (Chinese: 地球哈里发国, Dìqiú Hālǐfāguó), a supranational organization in R1 replacing the old United Nations.
Every five years, leaders of Muslim nations and representatives of Muslim communities in secular and non-Muslim nations convene in Mecca to discuss matters of the world, and later, the galaxy. Political leaders in secular or non-Muslim states are allowed to attend these meetings and debate in them, but have no voting rights. Since the Muslims of this universe recognize no "true" Caliph other than the Mahdi, an "acting" Caliph (Chinese: 临时哈里发, Línshí Hālǐfā, Provisional Caliph) is elected by the attendees to reign in his stead during these sessions, until his inevitable appearance in the ωth century.
