The Federal Republic of Orventia is a fledgling, socially progressive nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion. The hard-working, democratic population of 5 million Orventians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 16.5%.

The Orventian economy, worth 279 billion Quants a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Uranium Mining industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Soda Sales, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Average income is 55,927 Quants, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.4 times as much as the poorest.

Surveillance cameras are banned, the tenet of free speech is held dear, it is said that an Orventian woman's work is never done, and voting is voluntary. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Orventia's national animal is the Octopus, which can occasionally be seen avoiding garbage in the nation's murky oceans.

Orventia is ranked 288,161^st in the world and 108^th in Aeternas for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring -7.87 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
