Cannot get ordered result

I'm working with Python 3.5.2 and I'm trying to get a dictionary ordered by key by using OrderedDict.

Here is what I'm trying:

import re
from collections import OrderedDict

BRACKETS_PATTERN = re.compile(r"(?P<info>.*)?\((?P<bracket_info>.*?)\)")

def transform_vertical(vertical, trans=True):
    # elearning & Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs) => ELEARNING_AND_MASSIVE_ONLINE_OPEN_COURSES
    # Repair & Maintenance (SMB) => SMB_REPAIR_AND_MAINTENANCE
    # Digital Advertising & Marketing/Untagged Agencies => DIGITAL_ADVERTISING_AND_MARKETING_OR_UNTAGGED_AGENCIES

    if not trans:
        return vertical
    else:
        v = vertical.replace(" & ", "_AND_").replace(", ", "_AND_").replace("/", "_OR_")
        brackets_search_result = BRACKETS_PATTERN.search(v)
        result = v
        if brackets_search_result:
            bracket_info = brackets_search_result.group("bracket_info")
            info = brackets_search_result.group("info")
            if bracket_info.upper() in ("SMB", "CBV"): # todo more prefix
                result = bracket_info.upper() + "_" + info
            else:
                result = info
        result = result.replace(" ", "_").upper().strip("_")
    return result

VERTICAL_MAP = OrderedDict({
    "GAMING": OrderedDict({
        "MOBILE_GAMING": 1,
        "AR_OR_VR_GAMING": 1,
        "CONSOLE_AND_CROSS_PLATFORM_GAMING": 1,
        "ESPORTS": 1,
        "PC_GAMING": 1,
        "REAL_MONEY_GAMING": 1,
    }),
    "TRAVEL": OrderedDict({
        "AUTO_RENTAL": 1,
        "RAILROADS": 1,
        "HOTEL_AND_ACCOMODATION": 1,
        "RIDE_SHARING_OR_TAXI_SERVICES": 1,
        "TOURISM_AND_TRAVEL_SERVICES": 1,
        "TOURISM_BOARD": 1,
        "AIR": 1,
        "TRAVEL_AGENCIES_AND_GUIDES_AND_OTAS": 1,
        "CRUISES_AND_MARINE": 1,
    })
})

s = list(VERTICAL_MAP[transform_vertical("Gaming")].keys())

print(s)

And I get non-ordered result like:

['REAL_MONEY_GAMING', 'AR_OR_VR_GAMING', 'MOBILE_GAMING', 'CONSOLE_AND_CROSS_PLATFORM_GAMING', 'ESPORTS', 'PC_GAMING']

Expected result:

[ 'MOBILE_GAMING', 'AR_OR_VR_GAMING','CONSOLE_AND_CROSS_PLATFORM_GAMING', 'ESPORTS', 'PC_GAMING', 'REAL_MONEY_GAMING']

What's wrong with my code and how to get an ordered result?

Dictionaries are not insertion ordered in Python 3.5.

You are instantiating the ordered dicts with arbitrarily ordered regular dicts. Construct each of the ordered dicts from a list of (key, value) tuples.
