The Colony of -Orbit- is a very large, safe nation, renowned for its burgeoning Demonlist population. The quiet, industrious population of 234 million -Orbit-ians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 24.0%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The -Orbit-ian economy, worth 9.25 trillion Demonoists a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Soda Sales, Cheese Exports, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 39,540 Demonoists, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.9 times as much as the poorest.

Every new building project has to undergo a five-year environmental impact study before it can go ahead, small children are learning a lot of new words from a teacher with Tourette Syndrome, teenagers claim that morning paper rounds are performance art, and kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles. Crime is well under control, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. -Orbit-'s national animal is the Demonlist, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

-Orbit- is ranked 253,490^th in the world and 3^rd in Demonlist for Largest Information Technology Sector, scoring -3.16 on the Fann-Boi Productivity Index.
