The Easter of The Gamma Monster is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Patrick with an iron fist, and renowned for its anti-smoking policies, fear of technology, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 9.956 billion Gamma Monsterians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."

The enormous, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Gamma Monsterian economy, worth a remarkable 4,457 trillion Gold Bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing and Furniture Restoration. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an amazing 447,760 Gold Bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Pro-democracy protesters are shot on sight by state police, artists regularly face criminal charges and art-burning parties are common, aides are afraid to ask if Patrick wants a cup of tea or coffee, and illegal hunting is rife after veganism was recently made compulsory. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force. The Gamma Monster's national animal is the Bat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Koem Kabism.

The Gamma Monster is ranked 322,580th in the world and 17,530th in Balder for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring -11.52 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
