 //​Redemption//​ is set in an entirely fictional universe. The Homeworld is explicitly not Earth. As a rough guide, specific real world nations, people, events, faiths, or organisations do not exist in setting. We will generally refuse characters which attempt to import any of these into setting or directly reference them. Fictional equivalents should preferably draw on a variety of influences, rather than just copying real elements into the //​Redemption//​ universe. Real world technologies,​ species, and philosophical concepts will generally exist or have existed, and there will normally be or have been equivalents to real world products((though please do not use actual brand names)). //​Redemption//​ is set in an entirely fictional universe.

-In short:  ​"Steve Jobs in space" is not acceptable"​the ​iPhone ​in space" is (provided ​you do not call it the iPhone).+In short:  ​you cannot play Steve Jobs, but you could play a character inspired by several 21st century business leaders; you cannot have an iPhone, but you may have a smartphone and make up an in-universe brand name for it.
