Gods damn you Nedea for sucking me into spreadsheet space sim. It's slowly consuming me.

So I’ve been thinking about completely retooling Saratoga from the foundation I have built so far but not in the way I’ve done in years past but my issue is that I bit off a more than I can chew based on my ability to write.
I wanted to weave together a shifting power dynamic within the government between a weakening, indecisive left-wing majority vs power-hungry, ruthless, opportunistic, inexperienced, nationalistic right wing. The balance between these two are protected by a moderate center that is being eaten alive on each flank. Each flank is being influenced by the their major stakeholder groups. The left wing is being financed and lobbied heavily by labor unions and environmentalists. The right wing is being heavily financed and pushed by industry, business and corporations.
A forth influence within this is a monarchy. This monarchy is seen as the founders of the nation with its historical ties from old NCON and new NCON. It’s incredibly popular with the people as it’s seen as the foundation of stability that Saratoga has historically struggled with. The Monarchy has significant influence with its oversight of the Church of Providence. The Monarch, much like any irl monarch, communicates with and has a mandate from god. The Monarchy has seen its role within the nation reduced within the government which is being eroded by a more atheist and liberal citizenry.
While I think these pieces have the foundation to write a really intriguing storyline I’m not a strong nor creative writer. Especially when it comes to dialogue and narrative-ish writing. So that’s where I am stuck. At this point I’m sitting at three options:
1) I just need to dig into more do the foundation, keep building it out and strengthening the details so then I tap into for RP.
2) The other part of me want to make a lite version of this. Simplify it but keep the factions in the similar form.
3) Completely scrap and start over. I’m torn about this but it would allow me to completely rebuild the foundation to fit my writing style better.
4?) Finding a different purpose that fits the RP. No idea what the f-uck that means but with working in politics professionally part of me doesn’t want to use my free time to write stories about it. On the other hand this intimate view gives me a window tell real stories (and purge some demons). Idk what a different type of roleplaying would fit.
So any thoughts, feelings, advise, vibes, or you want to tell me to shut up feel free to say so!

Man you're committing to taking your work home with you.
There it is! In all seriousness though, pick what you want to do. All your options have their merits, I think whatever interests you most is what you should spring for. You've got a lot of established lore you can build off of or modify, and even if you go in a completely new direction it makes for interesting history and adds a degree of realism. Cultural and political monoliths that never change like we see here aren't very realistic. In my personal opinion, you could grab a little bit of everything and stretch your legs so to speak while staying close to the guard rails.
Athretvari, St Saratoga, and Nation M
Why not simply have the big blocks break up into smaller factions or political parties? The left wing coalition could be a combination of competing parties to be weak. Socialists and Communist wanting different wording for economic portion of a bill. Greens wanting more environmentally based bills. The right wing could be a weak nationalist Saratoga first party, maybe a pro Nedean capitalist party which is business first. The center parties are different independent members, maybe a pro monarchy party etc.
Maybe just do news snippets for background. Like rumors Nedea funding the pro capitalist party, maybe theirs a splinter off of the Socialist party which is demanding a market socialist based economy potentially linked to me.

(Do it! The retooling, that is.)
I’ve been having a very similar problem for a while now. I’ve been so exhausted from reading and writing for work all day, that come downtime, the last the I feel like doing is more reading and writing. Which is when I dive into working on a bunch of “background” stuff. Stuff unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) never reaches you guys here on the surface, like developing Athretvari’s languages or their writing systems, or creating art that no one except I get to see, because it’s just for my own personal inspiration. (Though I think you guys will be seeing more of that stuff.)
But I’ve been thinking of writing more news-bulletin type posts, as opposed to narrative-based ones. You actually have a great base for a news article—
That’s the meat and bones of a news article. Add a few extra details and you have a 1000% more of an RP than any of the rest of us. :)
One of the ‘problems’ I seem to notice is that posts like these, where it’s all about what’s happening inside our countries, get very little reaction from other players. I think that’s normal given the context, since the stories are mostly internal and not involving other countries. This can be a bit discouraging, since the player posting the story doesn’t really know then if anyone cares to even read it, let alone was entertained.
Two possible solutions to this: “like” the post even if you don’t like the content, as a way of indicated ‘I’ve read this. And thanks for interacting.’ And/or posting similar stories about your own country as a way of saying ‘I’ve read yours, now read mine.’
TLTR: I think 46566 said it better than me: Maybe just do news snippets for background.

I find background lore interesting. The benefit of using a multi party system is the ability to pivot in the realm of diplomacy at a whim of the RPer. Simply have the government collapse and form a new government.
Croxoco, Athretvari, and St Saratoga
you have time on your side. I'm not a very good writer/storyteller either, but lately I've been trying enhance this skill through RP. Certainly taking the route of a political tug of war wouldn't be the worst thing, backing what Moarfall said.
Athretvari, St Saratoga, 46566, and Moarfall
You don't even need a PR system for that; here in the UK, the Conservative Party won a comfortable majority of 80 seats in the 2019 General Election; since then, the Johnson Ministry collapsed after 1/3 of his Ministers resigned, the succeeding Truss Ministry collapsed after just six weeks in office following PM Liz Truss's and her Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng's disasterous mini-budget, and now many Conservative MPs are agitating to get rid of their current leader and incumbent Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and replace him in order to salvage any remote chances they have of winning the looming General Election. There has not been a General Election since 2019; the governing Conservative Party still have a working majority (though they've lost about 20 seats owing to scandals, by-elections and two defections to the Labour Party, they still have a majority of about 40 or so seats), yet we're now on our 3rd Prime Minister since 2019 owing to the constant in-fighting among Conservative MPs. You don't need PR to have chaotic government and radically changing policy.
