So I only recently joined this site (as is probably evident through my post count) and this interest check totally caught my eye.
The only question I have is, is there a limit as to how far back can the dictators go? Would Julius Caesar, for example, be a valid choice for a clone?

Other than that, definitely interested to get involved with this super-duper-evil-dictator-high-school roleplay!

Welcome to RPG, I hope you enjoy your time here. ^.^

I can see the appeal of bringing in characters like Julius Caesar, but I do not see them fitting the role precisely.

I'm looking at, in general, for more modern applications of "dictator." In general, a term used to describe a leader who holds and/or abuses an extraordinary amount of personal power, especially the power to make laws without effective restraint by a legislative assembly. This would be characterized by some of the following traits: suspension of elections and of civil liberties; proclamation of a state of emergency; rule by decree; repression of political opponents without abiding by rule of law procedures; these include single-party state, and cult of personality. 

With this kept in mind, I'm not convinced that rulers such as Julius Caesar fully fit that definition. But I'm open to others' thoughts on the exact definition. Sway me~
