Australia

An isolated continent on Tosev 3. When the Race's Conquest Fleet arrived in the Tosev system, the Australians had been engaged in a war with Japan and turned their military resources to opposing the Lizards' conquest of the planet. Australia was hopelessly outmatched and overrun. Despite its not having the ability to develop atomic bombs, Atvar ordered unprovoked nuclear strikes on Australia's two largest cities, permanently breaking the nation's back.

Sparsely populated by Tosevites following these attacks, Australia was repopulated by the Race, and became something of a Lizard's Paradise on Tosev 3. It had one of the few climates on Earth which the Race found agreeable, and that combined with its low population made it the most desirable area of the planet for the Race. Nonetheless, Atvar rejected the idea of establishing the seat of his government there in favor of the much more politically volatile Cairo.

When it was learned that ginger caused the Race to become sexually active at any time of the year, the Soviet Union fired missiles containing ginger and detonated them above Australia. This caused widespread intoxication among the members of the Race there, including Atvar, as well as a sexual orgy. The Race was unable to identify which Tosevite power ordered this attack and did not attempt to inflict punishment, as they saw the incident as little more than a prank.
