The Interstellar Domain of Orion is a gargantuan, socially progressive nation, notable for its absence of drug laws and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 27.332 billion Orionians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.

The medium-sized, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Environment. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 19.4%.

The strong Orionian economy, worth a remarkable 1,286 trillion Nebulas a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Furniture Restoration, and Trout Farming. Average income is 47,083 Nebulas, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 320,107 per year while the poor average 2,529, a ratio of 126 to 1.

Crime is a serious problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Orion's national animal is the Lepus the rabbit, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Orion is ranked 78,867^th in the world and 25^th in New York for Most Beautiful Environments, with 597.39 pounds of wildlife per square mile.
