What we know about Menagerie: During or leading up to the Faunus Rights Revolution, the humans decided that they didn't want to deal with the Faunus anymore and wanted to kick them out of the 'Human Kingdoms' and send them all to Menagerie. Understandably, the Faunus protested and fought for their right to stay with everyone else.

What we know about Vacuo: It's a desert place (sandstorm is an effect card in the Remnant board game and the sand biome in the Vytal Festival), it's not a 'shirt and tie' kind of place, it's a harsher lifestyle, and people try to go there to escape the White Fang.

The Protestants were kicked out of England and sent to America because the English decided they didn't want to deal with them anymore, basically. They were dumped on the shores, no aid was given, but they were still taxed.

The convicts and other people who were shipped to Australia were sent mainly because of overcrowding issues, I believe, and in fact had the option of returning to England if they went through the proper channels.

Which one sounds more like what the Humans tried to do to the Faunus in the FRR? Can you honestly tell me that if the humans had managed to get all the faunus over to Menagerie, they would have stuck around and given them proper channels to return to the human kingdoms later? It is far more likely to me they would have left the faunus to fend for themselves, and then swooped in later to claim tax. Just like England did with the Protestants and America until America revolted and left the Commonwealth.

Australia is a desert country, we are an extremely lax kind of place when it comes to our way of speaking and acting, it's harsh, and people joke about coming here to escape their own country (or literally come here to escape their own country. We just increased our refugee intake by 19,000 and the money we put towards refugees by 130 million dollars, on top of what we were already doing).

Hence, I think Vacuo is more Australian than Menagerie is.
