Description:
It's and island famous for its oranges, and the vast majority of its permanent population are orange farmers, or related to the orange industry in some way.
The island itself is vaguely circular, with a town occupying the central and northern areas (the main port is on the north, although there is an infestation of smaller piers scattered around the whole island, mainly because of the need for orange export) with further town areas being scattered and sparse into the west mixed in with forest, with the rest being orange fields.
It is very well-communicated but modest island in proximity of several other modest islands (most notably, the rest of the Conomi Island Archipelago which it is part of), making it a popular relay point for commerce and trade. While it is far from being the most important local logistical nexus, it is still a somewhat significant node for cross-island transport for the humble and rural activity of the area.
Due to the lack of resources and wealth, piracy is practically non-existent or petty thievery and pick-pocketing at most, with major confrontations only happening once every decade or more. There is some Marine and World Government presence to manage the town, and it's a popular spot to be transferred to due to the lack of work a Marine would have here - it's practically constant vacation.
Major landmarks feature:
- The Town Hall: The biggest building in the town, situated at the middle of the island. A big, (largely unused) office for World Government activities and the bureaucracy of the mundane, unchanging day-to-day activities of Orange Town. A Marine Station occupies a fraction of its rooms (it lacks its own building).
- St. Naranjo Church: Located near the town hall, it's a Gothic style stone church in honor of Saint Naranjo.
- North Market: Located in the north, next to its docks, there is a large plaza where imports from the other rural islands are sold.
- Cliffside Library: Somewhat hidden on the west side of the island, it's an important relay point for books and academic papers and its travel throughout East Blue, although it's largely ignored by the population of Orange Town. It's on a small cliff, facing the sea, with its own pier for shippings behind it.
It has a distinct accent with dropping consonants at the end of words (eg. Goverme' instead of Government) that is is often mocked by people of other islands for just being a "bum farmer" way of speaking, although switching to speaking in a more common, average accent is common among those who live in the North and its merchant circles (or those willing to speak "correctly").

Lore: The overwhelmingly dominant religion is the belief in the Bible - Christianity. Other creeds are practically non-existent due to the small population and their relatively insular situation in the seas. There are legends about a figure called Jesus that got crucified and brought salvation to the world through his sacrifice and resurrection in ancient times. There are two saints that also have worship, Saint Marshall and Saint Naranjo, the patron saints of dance and oranges respectively who were born at Orange Town during times immemorial.

This is well done, but this is island registration so the name can’t be orange town. Maybe orange island. Then for Turf, Orange Town would be the answer since that’s the most developed territory on the island.
Last, this has been added to the template, so just throw it in wherever and give your island a grade.
