I have an interesting idea for how to run a nation building rp. All the members are in charge of running one aspect of a country, whether it's The House (Ruling Class), The Military, The Academy (Science), The Church, or The People. This means that to do things everyone is working as a TEAM (More or less).
For example, if The Military wants better weapons you need to make sure The Academy has researched Iron Weapons and you need to go through The House to get funding for these weapons and maybe coerce The People into paying more taxes to obtain said funding. You see? It's all linked.
The setting I'd like to try is around 200 BC, or maybe even before that. The main plot of this role play would be just the day-to-day struggles of raising an empire to become extremely powerful (Hence the name). Dealing with homelessness, unemployment, crime and revolution. All that and more!
