Planet Orleans was the second permanently inhabited world of [[Gallia]] after [[Planet New Paris|New Paris]]. With the [[Orleanais]] system conveniently linked to [[Planet New Paris|New Paris]] with a jump hole, the system was found by Gallic exploration vessels as early as 60 [[AGS]], and the planet was discovered later the same year. After extensive research into the ecology and climate of the planet, the first settlements were established on Orleans in 134 [[AGS]], and in less than 50 years its population grew to 200,000. Rapid population growth continued afterwards via a high birth rate, assisted by the influx of [[Planet New Paris|New Paris]] citizens, and, more lately, immigrants from other Gallic planets.

Currently, the planet is considered to be one of the most comfortable places to live in [[Gallia]] on par with [[Planet New Paris|New Paris]] and [[Planet Lyon|Lyon]]. Much like the capital planet, Orleans has varied regions with a diverse economy and vast population that nearly reached 2 billion by the year 730 [[AGS]]. With Lyon's population growth slowing down in the last hundred years, it is very likely that Orleans will continue to stay the second most populated planet in [[Gallia]] for long into the future. The majority of Orleans' population prefers living in city suburbs, which are generally much larger and better developed than in other Gallic worlds. Agriculture is also more productive than on other planets, with only Lyon capable of providing significant competition.

Planet Orleans was the second permanently inhabited world of Gallia after New Paris. Gallic explorers found a stable jumphole leading from Isle de France into Orleans as early as 60 A.G.S., and after establishing that the jumphole was safe to traverse, explorers were sent through. The planet was found less then a year later. Settlement of Planet Orleans began half a century later, after studies showed that, while cold, the climate was suitable for human life.

The planet is ancient compared to New Paris, having been formed more than 9 billion years ago. Primitive cellular life forms appeared on the planet over 2 billion years ago. Despite it's lifespan, the cold climate has caused evolution to be slow on the planet, with most lifeforms still being algae and other microorganisms inhabiting it's vast oceans. Over the past years, the biosphere has been severely altered by various plant and animal species brought in from New Paris, mainly by the many farmers of Orleans. The planet is still largely rural, with a few mining colonies in operation by the Gallic Metal Service. The current population is estimated to be around 5.7 million people.
