The Songswept Orchestra is a major faction in Dreamspace. It is a Musical Junta where numerous conductors of ensembles form a state, with Grand Conductor Clara Aida de Petra serving as their head. It is built around the concept of music, and is noted to be well more syncretic when compared to its Rival Roscea. It's main goals in Dreamspace are to continuously expand, and pursue the recreation of the universe's song. Broadway, the capital of the Songswept Orchestra, is a massive moon-sized habitat where raw music is born, to flow into the rest of the stars.
Government
Songswept operates as a Musical Junta, a government where music studios hold power through might and song. Throughout the wonderlands of the Orchestra, many aspiring musicians gather in massive military-musical groups known as Ensembles, enforcing their lyrics (laws) on wherever the stars shine. It may be compared to the nomadic hordes of Earth in terms of a sociopolitical structure.
The Grand Conductor is chosen directly from the most influential artist of these ensembles, generally determined via a popular first-past-the-post vote. Clara Aida, the incumbent Grand Conductor, is a part of the Petra Ensemble, a musical clique with an aggressive marketing policy. Her actions as part of her Ensemble would lead into the continuation of the Songswept Invasions, leading into the capture of about 40% of Roscea's territories.
Vassals
Songswept Orchestra operates via two main divisions, the civil circuits and the Ensembles that occupy the latter.
- Symphonia - Petra Ensemble
- Melodia - Lumen Ensemble
- Rhapsodia - Poesya Ensemble
- Balladia - Numera Ensemble
Additionally, it possesses the various allied states and protectorates, in support of its art.
Demographics
Songswept's demographics are split between the majority space-faring Alfar, and the wonderlands under their forced patronage. A general majority of Ensembles will be noticeably Alfar, while those who work on the ground will often be native races of those worlds. It is noted that the demographic makeup of Songswept is similar to Roscea's due to the fact that the orchestra's territories have been carved out from the latter.
Religion
Carmenitia is the state religion of Songswept, enforced all throughout occupied Dreamspace. It was born a few aeons prior to Songswept's establishment in the newly-born wonderlands where an enlightening voice sang for a year straight, and drove its audience to devotion. In this sect, Nymenna is thought to be the origin of the song; and so to recreate the music perceived in the ages past, one required all the resources of the universe in their hands. The Songswept Orchestra was formed as a result. It was said that true comprehension of music yielded the power of creation well beyond the paltry power the gods behind Wonderlands have.
