As it says on the tin: How many planets are populated in the Ori (ex-Alteran) Galaxy? Is it just the one or is it several?
Non-canon sources are welcome.

1nice tactic, but I don't personally find the question interesting so I won't be putting effort into it.– ThePopMachineCommented May 5, 2016 at 15:59

Planets circle around stars. Solar systems with a star in the center and probably one or more planets populate a galaxy. Do you really ask for count of planets in a galaxy without counting the Stars? I think planets and (any) galaxy are unrelated.– harperCommented May 5, 2016 at 19:32

1All of them, I always assumed, like in Pegasus only more so. Millions at least. Isn't that why the Ori were so powerful?– Harry JohnstonCommented May 7, 2016 at 3:15

At least two planets are seen directly; Celestis (the homeworld of the Ori/Alterans) and the unnamed planet on which we find Ver Isca (Tomin's homeworld).
Vala also mentions (in SG1: Crusade) that there are potentially hundreds of inhabited world in the Ori Galaxy.
VALA: They are building ships and armies by the tens of thousands. The village I am living in is one of many, on a world among dozens like it.
Since she's evidently getting her info from Tomin (who seems quite a reliable source of general knowledge about the Ori), we really don't have any reason to doubt her.

Are Ver Isca and Ver Omesh planets or just villages? Ver Eger would point to villages. That is why I wanted evidence. But yes, just the second part is enough to accept the answer. Commented May 5, 2016 at 18:05

@MartinHandrlica - I think you're right. Ver = village. That being said, Tomin's homeworld has a different coloured sun than Celestis, which points to it being a different planet. So at least two seen directly and "dozens" mentioned indirectly.– ValorumCommented May 5, 2016 at 18:27
