Title says it all. You can tell a lot about a leader from the way he keeps his desk, and i'd like to see how leaders of NS keep their workplace looking like

You mean the Heavenly Emperor's throne room? It is a wide area with high ceilings and marble floor and pillars. A carpet leads to the throne from the door. On both sides of the room, near the doors and attached to the walls are stone fountains, with plants on the top.

The back half of the room has a stair-like structure with three tiers. The first tier has more plants. The second tier has a table on one side. The third has a shelf on each side of the room, containing various souvenirs from friends and foes alike, as well as books and other items. In the middle is the throne itself, with a built-in computer and buttons that control different things, such as the foldable table hidden under the floor in front of the throne, the music player, a big red button that would make our orbital superweapon fire, etc. Behind the throne are three, large windows, wide enough for the monarch to fly away through in case of trouble. Attached to the walls right under the windows are sofas.

Botrums office contains a mahogany desk imprinted with traditional Hatterlese patterning. He has a Bonzai tree on the left side of the desk, and on the right side there is often a bowl of cookies, crackers, nuts, mints, etc. just to gain appeal from any guests that enter with an issue. He has paintings of Hatterlese heroes like Anselm Jameson. He has a bible in his desk, as well as a copy of the Hatterlese constitution and a sleuth of pens. There is a Hatterlese musket used during the war for independence on his wall, next to it a Hatterlese flag, a flag of his home metro of Fallarbor, and next to that a sheath with a sword in it. In case those weapons fail to do the trick, he has a pump-action shotgun hiding under his desk at all times.

Under his office there is a bunker in case of bombing or invasion. The bunker has necessary survival tools, such as oxygen, water, and food, radio/television, and SOS materials. It also has weapons such as military-grade automatic rifles, shotguns, grenades, and pistols. It is larger than his office, in fact it is large enough to fit his guards, family, and some other military staff.

Shouldn’t this be in Factbooks and National Information?

Yup. Moved.

Unlike other countries such as the United Kingdom or the United States, the Prime Minister's office is not located in the official residence of the Prime Minister (Kimbara House). This is the same as Canada, where the Prime Minister's office is also located at the Office of the Prime Minister and Privy Council building, and not at 24 Sussex Drive.

We have a throne room.
The throne itself is decorated with two figures of Ra decorating the sides, with their heads curving down towards the ground at the top holding ankhs, while the armrests are two serpents. The legs of the chair end in curves, like upside down hooks. The stairs leading up to the throne are golden with silver inlays of ancient hieroglyphics, two lines separated by a river-like line. It is a very wide room, with the throne being at the back. Most of the room is made of sandstone, including pillars, handrails, stairs, and chairs. English hieroglyphics line the walls, creating an ankh on the ceiling.

No official photos of the office of President Laurent Peltier currently exist, however, his office was described by his chief bodyguard in a 1998 Morvanian Central News documentary.

"From the outside, the entry to his office is so small and out of the way that one could easily pass it thinking it was a closet or a spare bedroom. The inside isn't much bigger either, a large oak desk taking up much of the space. He would always have a simple office, kept it clean and free of clutter everywhere except that desk. Always he had stacks of paper on either side of his computer monitor, and a small Morvanian flag on the left next to a small desk fan to combat the heat. Behind him was one large bookcase filled with ledgers, records, theoretical works, and even some of his own writings. On the right wall (from the entrance) were four pictures, Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Che. The room was lit from a small ceiling light and a window on the right. (The Interview continues to describe other parts of the parliamentary building)."

Fliumenot Antiubodulo technically has an office in Sacsreno, in the Flux Palace. However he doesn't use it at all as an office. Instead it's a flux storage room, with Antiubodulo using a virtual office instead. The details of this office are unclear since it changes a lot depending on the situation, but generally you won't find many Metaphors in his office, just the bare essentials, like documents, people, and Fluxnet access.

My office.

President Fish lives in a bowl. If he had a desk it would float to the top and he wouldn't be able to reach anything on it.

Prime Minister Schuyler Marmish has no office. If she has paper work to do she does it on the picnic table where Cabinet meets in the coconut grove where Parliament meets.

General Marie-Louise Castro-Stalina says that because of modern communications her headquarters is wherever she is. Since she's usually criss-crossing the island in the cargo hold of a C-130, she does her paperwork on a clipboard that she carries in her haversack.

Alphonse is a duck so he has no need for a desk.

Former President and former eight-non-consecutive term Prime Minister Mickey Chang, who is now concentrating his attention on writing, has a small office in his suburban home. His desk is strewn with papers and the floor is crowded with stacks of books.

The office of Grand Emperor Geronimo XIII in the Imperial Palace Complex is quite large. It is an elegant room with a door in front for the main entrance and a sizeable wooden desk with elaborate carvings at the back, on which sits a computer, papers, and files. Behind it, there is a door to a private quarters/ lounge room. The office is long, lined with large marble pillars along the walls. Three chairs sit at the front of the desk for meetings, and a large leather one at the back for the G.E. The room has several other amenities such as a bookshelf, advanced communications system, digital war map, and drinks machine.

Smoke-Jaguar moves around pretty often (a tradition over a century old since the Xotlani Wars), and thus has modest workplace setups (also a tradition with Great-Instigators). A desk, a seat and a computer are the perennial features of these offices though quality of each of them may vary. The offices are usually concrete-lined, being located in military compounds, but the official Palace of the Great-Instigator has wooden floors (along with laminated wood furniture, a rarity among these offices).

The office of His Majesty has quite a rustic appeal, one which he personally chose. All his offices in his residences look akin or similar to this one.

The office of the President of the Central Committee Clever One is ornate, designed for sapient ponies and has several phones, a computer with internet access and two photos on the desk, one of Clever One's beloved wife and foals, and one of Leader Megatron.
