The Corporate Queendom of Northern Rosary Isles is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Queen Charlotte with an even hand, and remarkable for its infamous sell-swords, flagrant waste-dumping, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, hard-working population of 9.47 billion Rosarians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Garden. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 61.6%.

The frighteningly efficient Rosarian economy, worth a remarkable 3,847 trillion Fleurs a year, is broadly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Average income is an amazing 406,301 Fleurs, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 2,167,590 per year while the poor average 40,023, a ratio of 54.2 to 1.

Children are seen fighting in the playground for bread scraps that fall out of diamond-encrusted lunchboxes, cinemas play art-house movies to ever-shrinking audiences as film critics rule the industry, the government is promoting multicultural values with the new 'Just Be Nice, OK?' initiative, and Big Brother is still watching even when your big brother is dead. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Northern Rosary Isles's national animal is the Branta canadensis, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Northern Rosary Isles is ranked 94,860th in the world and 1,125th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 479.43179038568 days.
