The Big Apple State of Mrs Boyle is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by S Boyle with a fair hand, and remarkable for its public floggings, frequent executions, and compulsory gun ownership. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 5.422 billion Mrs Boyleans are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The tiny, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Dinner Hall. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.5%.

The frighteningly efficient Mrs Boylean economy, worth 560 trillion dollars a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with significant contributions from Gambling, Information Technology, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 103,428 dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 568,092 per year while the poor average 9,570, a ratio of 59.4 to 1.

Crayon squiggles were a late addition to the works of the Renaissance Old Masters, invasive drug testing is now performed at elementary school sports days, wait staff claim to like it when odorous customers flirt with them, and Christianity has been named as Mrs Boyle's national religion. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, with the police force struggling against a lack of funding and a high mortality rate. Mrs Boyle's national animal is the sticker, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

Mrs Boyle is ranked 256,944th in the world and 23rd in Sheriffmuir for Nicest Citizens, with 0.94 average smiles per day.
