The People's Federal Republic of Cloud Commune is a titanic, socially progressive nation, ruled by Sovereign Comrade Lucitos with an even hand, and renowned for its sprawling nuclear power plants, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, humorless population of 13.882 billion Communians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The enormous government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Nova Constantinopolis. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Communian economy, worth a remarkable 3,309 trillion Ameroes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is dominated by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an amazing 238,379 Ameroes, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Giggling teens are asked to put their mouths on rubber dolls, representatives soak in mineral pools at the new capitol building day spa, rebuilding efforts for a recently destroyed cathedral aren't expected to be completed for another century, and cloud nine refers to the top floor of skyscrapers. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cloud Commune's national animal is the Bald Aquila, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Romanitatis Christianismum.

Cloud Commune is ranked 7,262^nd in the world and 1^st in Berytus for Highest Average Incomes, with 238,379.43 Standard Monetary Units.
