The Fried Egg of Eggzz is a mammoth, efficient nation, ruled by Egglis Eggison with an iron fist, and notable for its public floggings, avowedly heterosexual populace, and ban on automobiles. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 6.137 billion Eggzzians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eggopilis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 61.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Eggzzian economy, worth 684 trillion Egg Yolks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Information Technology, and Retail. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 111,534 Egg Yolks, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

The jackhammer is considered a tool of artistic criticism, arthritic surgeons with tremulous fingers reassure patients that they are in safe hands, patch v22.1705 - all developers are now paid for work, and Goldilocks has found a lucrative career as a zoning consultant. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Eggzz's national animal is the Chicken, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Eggzz.

Eggzz is ranked 23,928th in the world and 2nd in Ultimate Potato Republic for Largest Black Market, with 110 trillion Standard Monetary Units.
