Clement Corporation

Overview

The Clement Corporation is a large multinational and diversified corporation headquartered in Ekklesiovsk in the Pontifical States, and while it is a publicly traded C-Corp, the majority of its shares were acquired in 3020 by the Holy See making it effectively an arm of the Pontifical State government. Known primarily for its passenger transport services, the corporation currently operates a cruise line, airline, bus service, water taxi service, resorts, travel agency, credit union, carwash, gas stations, media service, and a theme park on Clement Isle in the Northern Basin. Its properties are often easily recognizable with googie and streamline moderne inspired architecture styles from the middle age of the pre-meteor United States.

Clement is the largest corporation in the Pontifical States, and is responsible for an average of ten percent of the country's GDP. It is the only corporation to have a semi-autonomous territory within the country. The corporation also operates in nearly every country on the Doggerlands as well as services to mainland Europe, Lancastrian Canada, and planned services to the Polaris One international space station.

The company is named after Pope Saint Clement, the fourth Pope of the Catholic Church and the patron saint of mariners, owing to the its origins as a maritime passenger travel service.

Due to the majority ownership of the corporation by the Holy See, all Clement vehicles and vessels may be requisitioned by the government of the Pontifical States to serve as troop transports or hospital ships when called upon along with their operators.

Clement Water Taxi Service

Clement currently operates a fleet of twenty water taxies servicing twelve stops throughout Ekklesiovsk and the central Doggerland canal system and waterways, with ambitions to expand to the eastern and southern basins.

The fleet, like Clement busses and airlines, are operated by a robotic company officer corps trained specifically for navigation around the Doggerlands.

All Clement water taxies are registered in Ekklesiovsk.

Clement Bus Service

Clement operates a two level ground bus service across most of the Doggerland Bank, which includes interstate transport from larger regional terminals, and intrastate transport on smaller busses on traditional city bus routes. Stops are often paired alongside other Clement transport services.

The brand has several contracts with local governments to provide the service at discounted rates in exchange for exclusive or priority rights to operate.

Clement busses are exclusively purchased on contract from NorthEast Industries Manufacturing.

Clement Air Line

Clement Air Lines is the only air transport service of Clement, currently operating two classes of twin engine Krasin Aerospace passenger jets, the Krasin 301 and 303 types.

The main international hub for Clement is the Lancastria International Airport, largely to service Lancastrian Canada, alongside a regional hub only offering local services to mainland Europe at the Senones Regional Airport. The airline also has less regular flights from the Cyrene and Marino international airports.

Clement Rail Line

Clement Rail Line currently operates two Lancastrian Locomotive Works passenger trains with service to downtown and midtown Ekklesiovsk, the Port of Ekklesiovsk, Port Mentha and downtown Lancastria.

The brand is more well known for its custom built monorail tram system, which transports passengers between the Port of Ekklesiovsk and Clement Isle, and around the island itself.

Clement Cruise Line

Clement Cruise Line is the original operation of the company and remains the most profitable branch and flagship operation of the business. The line currently operates two Northerner II-class meter cruise ships, and two Ekklesiovsk-class ocean liners servicing the Doggerland-Lancastrian Canada route. All four vessels home port is the Port of Ekklesiovsk in the Pontifical States, except for the NS Lancastria, which is registered in Lancastria.

The cruising fleet has ports of call in Ekklesiovsk as well as tender capabilities to reach shallower ports. Most cruises will spend a majority of their time in open waters south of the Doggerlands, off the shores of western mainland Europe.

Clement is the only ocean going maritime commercial passenger service on the Doggerlands.

Fleet

Northerner II-class

The successor of the Northerner-class, the Northerner II is the workhorse of the Clement cruising fleet. Each of the ships in this class can carry over 2,000 passengers, and offer a wide range of amenities.

The vessel is 300 meters by 33 meters, and is diesel powered.

Four further vessels of this class are planned for construction in 3026-3030.

Ekklesiovsk-class

The NS Ekklesiovsk is the fastest ocean liner ever built, along with her sister ship, NS Lancastria, servicing the Lancastria-North American route. A third liner of the Ekklesiovsk-class was planned, the NS Republik, however Pontifex Konstantin IX cut the government's cruise line subsidies and the project was cancelled.

The vessel is 290 meters by 29 meters, and is nuclear powered.

Clement Travel Agency

Clement's travel agency serves to accommodate travelers from many nations onto their several ship, plane, and resort services. There are physical locations in every city where Clement operates, as well as services through the travel agency website.

Clement Resorts

The corporation has stated in 3020 plans to build several resorts and hotels throughout the Doggerlands, but progress has been little since the announcement.

Most recently the company has secured a property in the United Cities to develop a hotel and resort alongside the Waddler mall complex.

Clement Isle

Construction on Clement's theme park destination and resort are underway. Progress has undergone several setbacks related to the NCR-Ecclesian conflict, after which the government ordered all construction priority be on rebuilding mainland Ecclesia.

A large 40 million corporate mark deal was signed between the company and Black<Con Labs to build a state of the art aquarium for island guests.

Clement Credit Union

The corporation offers its own credit union for employees and their family members, with discounted interest rates and products. Most services are operated online, with physical locations in cities with large numbers of employees such as Ekklesiovsk and Lancastria.

Clement Courant

The Clement Courant is the official newsletter and media organization of the Clement Corporation, with new editions released every FY quarter.

Clement Corporate Security

Clement security is a largely robotic force of security personnel, which frequently patrol company property. The largest operation of company security is on the corporate fleet of naval cutters, which often escort Clement cruise ships and water taxies throughout the Doggerlands and in international waters.

The corporate security fleet has previously enforced the company trademark against other vessels, winning a court case to defend this right in Dalkaisk waters in 3021.

Clement Diner

Clement Diners were launched alongside the Clement Carwash brand in 3021 as a retro American style dining option, with soft drink bars and convenience products sold inside. The first rollout of the brand could only be found inside of Clement Carwashes, with diners able to view the wash tunnels from the restaurants. It was later expanded to Clement Cruise Line vessels.

As of 3025, the company announced its intentions to further expand the Clement Diner brand as a standalone restaurant business, but has not yet broken ground on any locations. The only current standalone Clement Diner is inside of the Clement Headquarters in Ekklesiovsk, above the atrium.

Clement Colas

Clement registered a trademark for a line of cola products, but no further information has been released about the company's intentions for the brand.
