'''The United Federation of Orion''' (UFO) was a federal republic on [[Civcraft 2.0]] located deep in the Northwestern (-,-) quadrant. It was governed primarily by a mixture of an Executive branch led by the nation's president, and a legislative branch managed by the Executive Council. The vast majority of the nation's population resided in its expansive capital city, [[Orion#Member Cities|Orion (City)]]. However, the UFO maintained several noteworthy colonies spread throughout the (-,-) quadrant, including [[Orion#Senntisten|Senntisten]], [[Orion#Ñ|Ñ]], and [[Orion#Etherium|Etherium]].
 
The United Federation of Orion began very shortly after the start of Civcraft 2.0 with the establishment of its capital [[Orion#Orion|Orion]], and frequently found itself at the top of the list in nations when it came to population, both declared and active. Its constitution was ratified by the People of Orion on Friday March 14, 2014 with a 16-5 vote in favor.

Eventually the attackers were pearled in Minas by a united effort by many assorted players. Some would even come down to Orion and help with the freeing of the innocents.

On May 1st, 2014, [https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/24ftmg/introducing_cuba/ Farley50 announced the secession of Orion's eastern territory], using land from [https://np.reddit.com/r/Civcraft_Orion/comments/1xl5ex/cuba_the_dawn_of_freedom/ a territory known informally as Cuba], into a new "nation" of the same name Thus, a new horror was introduced to the land of FREEDOM™, a ''communist'' organization under the brutal dictatorship of High Commander Farley50. Seizing the land from the good and noble citizen Malice976, the Cuban rebels quickly began constructing crude cobblestone fortifications along the river embankment.

In an act of mercy, quicksilver991 offered the rebels [https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft_Orion/comments/1xlcbt/notice_to_all_persons_affiliated_with_cuba/ a chance to stand down with only the loss of their homes and lives]. However, when the rebels refused this generous offer, the Orion military began preparations to <del>burn the city to the ground</del> liberate the good people trapped under the oppressive Cuban dictatorship. Under quick and effective leadership under President [[Orion#Notable_Residents|Itaqi]] and General [[seldomshock]], the Orion army intervened and [https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/24jz0r/cuban_workbench_crisis_a_declaration_of_war/ airdropped the workbenches of capitalistic FREEDOM™] directly to the Cuban people. In an apparent rejection of Orion's generous gift to the civilians under their rule, the Cuban rebels quickly imposed martial law, locking down the territory and declaring that only through war would they be forced out.
 
 
Following this, the rebellious [https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/24pl4l/the_principality_of_loveshacks_royal_army_joins/ Principality of Loveshack] also declared their intention to provide fighters to assist the rebels. Following an [https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/24lew9/orion_attacks_cuba_outside_of_wartime_kills_nl/ incident] resulting in the death of three [[New Leningrad]] soldiers, there were worries that New Leningrad might intervene directly into the conflict. However, [https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft_Orion/comments/24lhp5/your_assault_on_new_leningrad_soldiers_in_cuba/ after negotiations on reparations were concluded], New Leningrad decided against full-scale conflict, providing only a handful of troops as a gesture to the communist rebels.
 
 
Thankfully, the arsenal of FREEDOM™ is vast and mighty, and when the decision was made to advance on the island, the Orion army was able to use their <del>prot 4 and vastly superior numbers</del> superior tactics and skill [https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/258ghh/a_great_victory_for_capitalism_orion_is_stronk/ to secure a conclusive defeat over the rebellion]. Indeed, in an ironic twist of fate, the property was returned to its rightful owner and reopening of the Camp NWA <del>labor camp</del> fulfillment center turned Cuba into a prosperous and productive district of Orion.

</pre>
The city was started on the first day of the server due to great luck in finding a good location.
 
The city started out as a hole in the ground that held the beds of the founding citizens in addition to mines that were used to get supplies for the city. Following these initial weeks, a period of rapid expansion occurred; the city quickly ran out of open plots and skyscrapers spawned within the first weeks of construction.
 
After the immediate success Orion was set back due to the group of griefers known as the Black Knights, or &quot;BK&quot;. This spawned out of the [[Orion#Notable_Residents|belthazor]] incident where he admitted to cheating. What followed were weeks of repetitive murders and griefing that shook the town to its bones. With aid from [[Kappi]] and the [[Metropolis]] most of the griefers were caught. The rest fled to [[Haven (2.0)|Haven]].
 
There was a small resurgence of BK attacks soon after when the griefers attacked from Haven and pearling a large portion of the unsuspecting citizens. This was related to the reparations that were set against the griefers while unannounced in their entirety were &quot;too high&quot;. With help from Haven, they were eventually settled.
 
Soon after Orion experienced its largest population expansion yet, quickly going from the few remaining citizens to well over 50.
