Anyways, as far as FT goes, there's a monarch behind every other corner. Galactic empires with undying emporers is just a cool concept for some people. If you want originality, and still want a monarchy, you will be wanting to find something unique that doesn't pertain to your government, because even with some semantic difference, it'll just be seen as another monarchy or another empire. Of course, some empires do stand out, but it isnt because of their king or how he obtains power. For an example, everybody loves Huerdae because he simply doesn't give a shit about life, and can simply outgun anybody who crosses him. Rather, use the generic ish monarch (or any other system, your choice), but also do realize that you need more than just a unique head of state to shine.
Military. Culture. Something on a large scale that will be reflected by the whole of your nation nd the ives of its people. Something that will actually allow you to stand out. A unique head of state, who is but a single person and thus a single character isn't going to cut it if you want awesomeness originality. To make a long story short, make your nation unique, not a single character.
I understand what you're saying. My original FT nation failed because it was essentially a single character. Once I removed him, the basis of the nation fell apart.
I am going to try and develop a unique culture for my nation. FT furries would probably fit into the alien bracket so I have some lee-way regarding non-human concepts.

I think there are advantages to roleplaying a monarchy or a dictator, as it reduces characters. Like you pointed out, basing your nation on one person is problematic. I think culture is important and oft misunderstood and under developed part of a nation, and you are right to focus on it. As far as wolf based cultures, the whole idea of the alpha dog has gone out of fashion with wolf scientists. Not that you should let that get in the way of a good idea. If you are interested you can look here: http://www.4pawsu.com/alphawolf.pdf As far as form of government, if you want something unique, you can easily make up your own. What I rarely see in NS is governments with multiple heads of state, such as the Roman Consuls or San Marino.

Either ignore it, act more civil, or approach the situation with a more conciliatory tone. People will be dicks, it's just important to be cordial regardless, it is a game after all.

I know what won't happen as a plot:
War RP's - too complex
Fantasy - not interested in that area, again too complex to write.
But what could, as a general topic area, make for a good one?
Political? Medical? Trade? I'm not that sure, the reason why is, I'd been so heavily invested on here in Factbooks and Global Economics and Trade that I need to improve my RP'ing skills.

Riots and protests break out etc. and an international meeting is held to determine the status of it.
Would this be a good idea? (influenced by states like Transnistria, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Nagorno-Karabakh, Kosovo etc.)

Licana on the M-21A2 MBT: "Well, it is one of the most badass tanks on NS."
Vortiaganica: Lamoni I understand fully, of course. The two (Lamoni & Lyras) are more inseparable than the Clinton family and politics.
Triplebaconation: Lamoni commands a quiet respect that carries its own authority. He is the Mandela of NS.
