The Sunny Bargain Paradise of Cloud 9 Corporation is a mammoth, orderly nation, remarkable for its compulsory military service, restrictive gun laws, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical population of 7.006 billion Cloud 9 Corporationians are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.

The tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 7.5%.

The very strong Cloud 9 Corporationian economy, worth 504 trillion US Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Trout Farming. Average income is 72,053 US Dollars, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 327,917 per year while the poor average 9,678, a ratio of 33.9 to 1.

Crime is moderate, possibly because it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many regulations. Cloud 9 Corporation's national animal is the Cloud, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Cloud 9 Corporation is ranked 240,387th in the world and 18th in Markion for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 167.71 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
