The Fried Egg of Eggzz is a massive, orderly nation, ruled by Egglis Eggison with an iron fist, and renowned for its avowedly heterosexual populace, free-roaming dinosaurs, and vat-grown people. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 3.811 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, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Eggopilis. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 66.2%.

The all-consuming Eggzzian economy, worth 377 trillion Egg Yolks a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Furniture Restoration, Retail, and Door-to-door Insurance Sales. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 98,964 Egg Yolks, with the richest citizens earning 6.8 times as much as the poorest.

Lip-readers are often left perplexed by political rallies, people regularly disappear off the streets and all evidence of them is destroyed, international organisations everywhere are united in their condemnation of the nation's zombified military (Eggzz has found 1 easter egg), and wearing a daisy chain is a fast-track ticket to unemployment. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very 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 226,225th in the world and 12th in Ultimate Potato Republic for Most Primitive, scoring -90.26 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
