The Nova Queensland of Mrs Round is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its unlimited-speed roads, smutty television, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical population of 26.945 billion Mrs Roundians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially-minded, well-organized government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Industry, Environment, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Istalia City. The average income tax rate is 86.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Mrs Roundian economy, worth 844 trillion Golden Cheese Nuggets a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, extremely specialized black market in Automobile Manufacturing and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is 31,336 Golden Cheese Nuggets, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Mrs Round has designated Istalia City as its capital city, citizens are expected to be proficient in at least five languages, the government pours millions of Golden Cheese Nuggets into rehabilitation programs annually, and motorists must pay to enter inner-cities during peak hours. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Mrs Round's national animal is the Horse, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Mrs Round is ranked 34,993rd in the world and 407th in Lazarus for Most Stationary, with 1,281.90023513888 days.
