The Empire of Orionas is a small, safe nation, remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, compulsory military service, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-working, democratic population of 26 million Orionasians are known throughout the region for their efficiency and work ethic, as well as their general suspicion of leisure.

The relatively small, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 11.0%.

The strong Orionasian economy, worth 1.67 trillion EOS a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Pizza Delivery industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Information Technology, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 64,219 EOS, with the richest citizens earning 7.1 times as much as the poorest.

Skateboarding is punishable by heavy fines, edutainment video games are taking Orionas's students to the next level, funeral directors are frequently looking at their watches during funerals, and a cyber-war between file sharers and the music industry formats hard drives across the country. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Orionas's national animal is the tiger, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Orionas is ranked 174,761^st in the world and 3,117^th in The East Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 89.07 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
