Description

This Dystopian Ringworld was inspired by a Competition in the Cartographers Guild

The Basic Idea is that Humanity living on the Once abitable planet was forced to build a new Home in space because of a Cataclysm that hit the homeworld.

This lead to the Creation of Orbis ( meaning both Ring and World in Latin ) , a Huge megastructure Ring World .
Due to its size its more like a Stanford Torus than a ringworld. I used that name couse its effectively describing the structure.
And no I haven't read the books about Ringworld.

Trivia On Making of:
