Orwell is a tempermant generated by a slightly sharp subminor third representing [[7/6]], seven of which reach [[6/1]]. Its name stems from George Orwell's book 1984, as a good generator is [[84edo|19\84]]. Three subminor thirds reach 8/5, the [[5th]] subharmonic. This temperament is supported by notable edos [[22edo|22]], [[31edo|31]], and [[53edo|53]], as well as the less known though still notable [[84edo]]. This temperament represents the 7-limit with good accuracy and relatively low complexity. However, the mapping for 11 is very simple, so this temperament really comes into its own in the 11-limit (see [[#Undecimal Orwell]]). Important commas tempered out by orwell include [[225/224]], [[1728/1715]], [[2430/2401]], [[6144/6125]], [[65625/65536]], and [[2109375/2097152]].
