I'm shocked nobody's brought this one up yet (but slap me in the face if it actually has): What about the all the major factions in the continuum, both canon or otherwise? Like, what sort of alignment that faction is typically regarded as, whether or not that faction has already been eradicated by another faction, if that faction even exists at all in the continuum, et cetera. For example, there is no universal definition of what G.U.N. is supposed to be in fanon. A good chunk of the fanon claims that it's primarily antagonistic and only exists to exploit the Mobian race, while other parts of fanon steer more toward the canon definition where G.U.N. tries to work toward everyone's salvation but they've got so much dirty laundry they'd keep a laundromat busy for a month.

Also, it's worth discussing how much influence the factions have and where the influence is distributed. I'm pretty sure there's more variables to discuss here, though.
