Regarding states and regulation, considering i start a game in 1996 and most of states have made MMA illegal in the US, how long for a state it is to become regulated. I know for a fact that if a state is more liberal and the public perception is high enough then the state will regulate faster but considering New York is a very liberal state in real life but did not regulate the sport until 2016, i think would it be more appropriate for the state to be very conservative. Another example is that most southern states had unregulated laws considering the sport was illegal in most of the US at that time (UFC events from 1996 to 2000) should those states be very liberal compared to what political stance they have in real life which most of them are conservative or very conservative. Im trying to reflect in real life how states regulated the sport when playing a Dawn of MMA 1993 scenario game. All feedback would be appreciated, thanks.
