The Empire of Orven is a colossal, cultured nation, renowned for its anti-smoking policies, pith helmet sales, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic population of 3.635 billion Orvenians love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Majestia. The average income tax rate is 97.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Orvenian economy, worth 574 trillion earths a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 158,031 earths, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Leather-clad individuals can be seen walking their slaves in public parks, artists are renowned for their ability to make art pieces out of thin air, internet searches for the inventor of the three-wheeled steam-powered Orvenian weed picker are way up, and it's illegal to be caught on tape. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orven's national animal is the platypus, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.

Orven is ranked 1,738^th in the world and 87^th in The North Pacific for Most Developed, scoring 98.13 on the Human Development Index.
