You can; many fictional works are set in the "real" world or in variations of the real world - for example, in a novel about current America, Obama might be mentioned. However, there are legal implications about writing about living people so authors, and more particularly publishers, have to be cautious about such things.

What is fiction and non fiction?

Non-fiction is all true, fiction is not true. The only problem is when the line is blurred, and a book contains fiction and non-fiction. Classifying them is hard. Hint: Fiction: Fake Non-fiction: Not fake ****** Non-fiction is books that are written about things that ARE TRUE, for example, bigraphies, history books, books that are written from a first hand experience of an event, and so on. Fiction is made up stuff, fantasy, sci-fi, etc., things that ARE NOT TRUE. The really tricky one is historical fiction, which is fiction that is based off of a historical event, but is still considered fiction. (I have heard that this is particularly tricky to write...you can imagine.) Similarities? Almost none. They both use words, I suppose, and are contained within books, but you could only really try to find similarities if you were examining two (or more) specific books.
