I'd like to do a timeline about the height of the Republican conservative era, the collapse and the emerging Democratic majority. It would span 15 years and I would probably make up characters.
Is this acceptable? It's more of a conceptual timeline and trying to talk about why the political trends happen than mapping out the career trajectories of real politicians.
I can definitely use real politicians though. I just want to stay within guidelines for the forum.
Yes and Yes. (As far as I've seen them)
Edit: Just make sure there is enough backstory to them. If it's gonna be completely fictional make sure some are fitting a certain cliche. Just as some reading guidance.
Also, I'd usually PM Bacon King about this stuff.
