Fictional World Building

What does a society need?
Economy
Jobs (Ask what will drive the economy. Will the society be based on agriculture or is it more advanced? How advanced?)

Politics 
Someone to lead (Democracy, Dictatorship, Monarchy, etc. / Countries or kingdoms)
Service Members (What are the state of these forces?)
-Police Force
-Firefighter, Paramedics
-Medics (Hospitals? Pharmacies?)

Social
Rules
Goal of the other members of society (how does it interact with the protagonist’s goal)
Character traits of the other members of society
Cooperation (in some form)
Purpose in life
Equality or lack of

These are hardly all of the traits of a society and the list can be expanded on. You can use some of these questions to guide you in developing “your world”.
