The People's Republic of Norway-Australia is a massive, efficient nation, ruled by Chairman Rod Hull with an iron fist, and remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, anti-smoking policies, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.272 billion Norwegian-Australians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The large, corrupt, well-organized government prioritizes Defense, although Education, Administration, and Industry are also considered important, while Spirituality is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Oslo-Canberra. The average income tax rate is 74.9%.

The all-consuming Norwegian-Australian economy, worth 180 trillion Kroner a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Trout Farming, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 141,563 Kroner, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.9 times as much as the poorest.

Mathematicians are gathering an infinite number of Moose and typewriters to see if they can recreate the works of Max Barry, a 10000 Islands Tourist Association survey has rated Norway-Australia #1 for number twos, huge explosions in the sky are a daily occurrence in the cities, and pollution is on the rise along with government approvals of fracking projects. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Norway-Australia's national animal is the Moose, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Norway-Australia is ranked 21,891st in the world and 99th in 10000 Islands for Most Patriotic, with 45.36 flags saluted per person per day.
