The Fiefdom of Lady Rose is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Lady Rose with a fair hand, and renowned for its infamous sell-swords, complete lack of prisons, and daily referendums. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 40.798 billion Lady Roseans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Administration, and Welfare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Meriamne. The average income tax rate is 17.7%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Lady Rosean economy, worth an astonishing 10,870 trillion Coins a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry. Average income is an amazing 266,436 Coins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.3 times as much as the poorest.

Prodigal children celebrate as charitable bequests plummet, cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them, 'To Regulate And Beyond' is the unofficial motto of the Lady Rosean Space Agency, and genocide is seen as a topic best avoided in history lessons. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Lady Rose's national animal is the Black Squirrel, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Individualism.

Lady Rose is ranked 242,249^th in the world and 1^st in Lady Rose for Largest Manufacturing Sector, scoring zero on the Gooback-Jerbs Productivity Index.
