I'm on it! Here's the draft:

Fandom: 18th Century CE Frederician RPF
Possible issue with the fandom: May not be clear what "Frederician" entails
Why this fandom should be considered eligible: The word "Frederician" is meant to relate to Frederick the Great (Friedrich II) of Prussia, by analogy with "Elizabethan" or "Georgian"; we felt this would be simpler and easier than "Frederick the Great and his associated friends, enemies and frenemies RPF."

Frederick the Great and friends have been nominated before under "Prussian 18th Century RPF," but since he interacted with not only Prussians but an international cast, including Empress Maria Theresia, Emperor Joseph II, and Voltaire (and we are interested in those particular dynamics as well as the intra-Prussian ones) we feel that this is a better descriptive fandom name for what we are nominating.
