"a city in the clouds...durrr" - SnappyMuppetman
Cloud City is an entirely floating city. It was originally built above NewVenice, but was moved due to crystalriver's request. It now is under construction in the middle of the ocean that surrounds NewHaven. The new construction job began on April 26, 2013. The original Cloud City was extremely small compared to the new one, which is already much larger than it. Currently, the only way of accessing it is by teleporting to GeekyCreeper while he is working, or by boat. A teleport pad will hopefully be put in place soon. Cloud City is being built with the intention of being the largest, and safest place to live on Freedonia. The city has a small government, consisting of a mayor and a city council. A more extensive description of Cloud City's government can be seen below.

- 27 April, 2013 - GeekyCreeper continues expanding the cloud for a lengthy period of time. By the end of the day, it is already larger than the original cloud.
- 29 April, 2013 - GeekyCreeper continues expanding the cloud. A deal is made with tonyisbeast that prevents the city from reaching being built over his home, which is the closest structure to the city. Construction begins on the warp area, the first structure of Cloud City.

GeekyCreeper adds a boat route, making Cloud City publicly accessible. Excalibur_NUMNUM volunteers to build Cloud City's Visitor Centre. A space is reserved for him, that he can use whenever he is ready to start.
- 01 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper works alongside TEllins, Draoga, and user tonyisbeast to build some new structures and to redecorate the city. The City Council hall and the Visitor Tower are built. TEllins requests permission to build the Visitor Center, instead of Excalibur_NUMNUM, and GeekyCreeper gives her permission. Construction on it begins. The first two residents move in: GeekyCreeper and TEllins. They start to build their dwellings. crazyrecieve buys the first plot and builds Crazy's House of Hate.
- 02 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper discusses city matters with TEllins and thesprazzzler. They decide on a couple of matters and discuss ideas. Blobehh teaches GeekyCreeper a more efficient way of building the cloud using Craftbook. nd27359 volunteers to build a mob grinder in the city. He also wishes to build a public farm. GeekyCreeper agrees and sets up a plot for the new grinder.
- 03 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper works with Blobehh to expand the cloud further. A new public restaurant is opened by Violet_Apathy). A public utility room opens along with the now-completed visitor center.

- 05 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper expands the cloud and sells new plots to xArches, Simmuel, ardoom1, and winx51. xArches builds herself a house, Simmuel builds himself a house, and ardoom1 builds a structure. It is discovered that Palindrome7 has built a cloud right next to Cloud City, which GeekyCreeper will build around and will be incorporated into Cloud City.
- 09 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper gets very little done. He does manage to expand the cloud slightly, however. He reserves nd27359's Mob Grinder plot for his IRL friend, bmt0987. He also reserves a plot for JOHUK21, another IRL friend.
- 11 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper gets very little done. He does manage to expand the cloud slightly, however. He also goes to a party with SlowRiot, stromhurst, crazyrecieve, bubba_basti, Menmeth, twinchicken86, and robbybnonelikeme. There was dancing, and everyone got drunk. Then, a murderer appeared, and few survived. GeekyCreeper luckily did.
- 12 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper makes his grand return. He starts a major expansion of the cloud. The expansion would add a lot more real estate to the city.
- 18 May, 2013 - GeekyCreeper builds the Public Fungeon. He also adds more land to the cloud.
- 06 June, 2013 - GeekyCreeper begins a secret project, while charlesrinehard moves to the city and donates a massive amount of items to the city.
- 07 June, 2013 - charlesrinehard is appointed as the General of the Cloud City Army. The secret project is revealed by GeekyCreeper to be an Army Base for the new Cloud City military. More work continues on the Military Base.
- 08 June, 2013 - GeekyCreeper enlists Blobehh to assist with the Military base. He perfect the redstone machinery with Craftbook, and begins making enemy-proof doors, which will prevent invasion of the base. GeekyCreeper builds a noob trap tower called the "Fun Room." The city is visited by God-donor jonathanpanda, who takes a tour of it. He also lets GeekyCreeper try out his Lightning-sword. broncoskip also visits and spawns mobs all over the cloud. 44trent3 moves to the city. Krenath visits and gives GeekyCreeper enough quartz to fill the ocean. With his visit, this sets a all-time high of 3 God donors that have visited the city in one day, and a total of 4 God donors that have visited. The fourth God donor to visit was Acsidol, whose visit was sadly unrecorded and lost in history. Only a few eyewitnesses still remember it. GodlyCheeze suggests that GeekyCreeper builds separate clouds, and builds bridges to connect them, using the quartz that Krenath gave him. GeekyCreeper begins to plot out the new clouds.
- 09 June, 2013 - GeekyCreeper destroys the old Road System, and begins Project Cloud Universe, a network of color-coded Clouds that all interconnect by bridge with Cloud City. The project was created by GodlyCheeze. Cloud City serves as the hub for the project, and the city will still continue to use the name Cloud City. crazyrecieve attacks the city, but is fought back by GeekyCreeper, TEllins, thesprazzzler, Blobehh, and charlesrinehard. He kills charlesrinehard, but everyone else on the attacking force survives. He retreats and without any struggle. charlesrinehard is enlisted to Project Cloud Universe, and the first bridge is built by GeekyCreeper. charlesrinehard starts the first cloud, which is named "District Purple." GeekyCreeper starts the second bridge.

Allies
Cloud City is in an alliance with the cities listed below. Cloud City will never declare war on these cities, and will not send hunting parties to kill residents. We make no promises to other cities. Their best bet is to make an alliance before the Cloud CIty Council gets it's secret society set up. They will be ruthless. You have been warned!
Allies: NewVenice
If you would like to become an ally with Cloud City, speak to GeekyCreeper.
Enemies
crazyrecieve has been declared a public threat to safety and sanity. If seen in Cloud City, either avoid him, or if you are brave, kill him. Good luck with that though! He is FAST, which makes it difficult for the Cloud City militia to attack. Beware!
