How does one go about making a Wikibox?

1) Make an account
2) Find an article about the topic you want to make an infobox about (eg: election, officeholder, actor, etc.)
3) click on 'edit' or 'view source' (depending on which one is available)
4) copy the infobox template in the article
5) click on 'sandbox' at the top
6) paste the template in the sandbox
7) edit as needed

For me, just go on wikipedia, find a wiki article which you can edit (you don't have to make an account, but you do need to find a wikibox you can edit), press edit, make the changes you want, then voila. Make sure you don't save it, though.

This is true but I recommend creating an account and using sandbox as editing current articles risks accidentally altering the actual articles (I did that accidentally twice first few times I made infoboxes)

That's why I said try not to save as that could easily happen. Though yes it is also good to use sandbox.

After the end of the Great War, Prussia attempted to transition from an absolutist military dictatorship, but their attempts at liberal democracy was a rushed, incomplete experiment. Post-war Prussian governments were plagued by endemic corruption and incompetency. By the late 70s, something needed to be done. King Joachim August V had been born after the War, and had been raised for several years in London, so he had respect for democratic institutions of civil society, but was also drawn to the enlightened absolutism of the 18th century. Seeing a need for a steady hand on the ship of state, Joachim August created the Fatherland Front (the Vaterländische Front or the VF in German) in 1979, with himself as its Führer.

The Fatherland Front has no specific ideology, but has been characterized as being a statist and nationalist party of power with the King of Prussia at its head. Government ministers are not career politicians, but are instead technocrats drawn from the ranks of business, academia and the military and serve for a few years before Joachim August rotates through them. The Prussian Landtag has expanded the scope of the Prussian social safety net to undercut support for spartacists and socialists, but has limited its availability to Prussian citizens...while simultaneously curtailing the ability for anyone to gain Prussian citizenship. The Fatherland Front has sought to return Prussia to its pre-war level of militarism, but with the support of the British Empire this time. This has coincided with the rise of tensions with the Austrian Empire, while relations with Russia have remained in a constant state of flux, particularly over the Polish question. All of this culminated with Prussia testing a nuclear device in 2002, and the nuclear triad in 2019 when it commissioned the first of the Grosser Kurfürst-class of ballistic missile submarines, which are armed with Freyja SLMBs from Britain.

The Fatherland Front is not the only legal party in Prussia, but it has won every legislative election since the early 1990s. Joachim August has been accused of using state-run media to unfairly promote his party over the opposition. Viking Youth members are a common sight at Prussian polling places, and like most other countries, Prussia does not have a secret ballot. However, it has long been suggested that the Prussian people legitimately support the Fatherland Front in large numbers. In 2004, King Joachim August made his son, Crown Prince Friederich Wilhelm, the Deputy Führer of the Fatherland Front, and as the King continues to age, there are circulating rumours that he plans to not only name the Crown Prince the new Führer, but to abdicate the throne as well.

Why would McCarthy join the Freedom Democrats which I'm guessing are on the liberal end of things?

Actually when one looks past the paranoid rhetoric McCarthy wasn’t exactly an ardent conservative. Liberal would be overstating it but he wasn’t economically or socially much further right than Harold Stassen.

I'd advise against actually publishing changes, even if they're in your own sandbox. I had my sandbox deleted because I was using it to create wikiboxes instead of whatever it is a Wikipedia sandbox is actually intended for.
