The State of Eostre is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its burgeoning deer population. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 30.294 billion Eostreans hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Law & Order, and Education. The average income tax rate is 11.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The strong Eostrean economy, worth 923 trillion betales a year, is quite specialized and led by the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 30,483 betales, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

High-income earners pay a 100% tax rate, voting is voluntary, all tariffs have been abolished, and the government is seen to favor Catholics. Crime is moderate. Eostre's national animal is the deer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Eostre is ranked 82,558^th in the world and 1^st in Eostre for Largest Pizza Delivery Sector, scoring 2,533.64 on the Pepperoni Propulsion Productivity Index.
