The Bloom of Cloud Orchestra is a colossal, socially progressive nation, notable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, anti-smoking policies, and national health service. The democratic population of 2.708 billion Cloud Orchestrans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Public Transport, Healthcare, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 35.8%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Cloud Orchestran economy, worth 115 trillion mlems a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is fairly diversified, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Basket Weaving, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 42,706 mlems, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Royalist is the most offensive slur in the Cloud Orchestran language, the dictionary is a common first book for children, it's always rabbit season, and the nation's streets have become a winter wonderland of salt and sand. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Cloud Orchestra's national animal is the kat, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Cloud Orchestra is ranked 122,792^nd in the world and 4^th in Abraxas for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 43 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
