The Most Serene Republic of Easter Baskets is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Governor Brownegg with an iron fist, and remarkable for its barren, inhospitable landscape, state-planned economy, and restrictive gun laws. The cynical, devout population of 17.536 billion Basketeers 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 large, moralistic government prioritizes Law & Order, although Spirituality, Defense, and Administration are also considered important, while Social Policy isn't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Hardboiledeggville. The average income tax rate is 52.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but underdeveloped Easter Basketsian economy, worth 562 trillion Tulips a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is broadly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Basket Weaving, and Automobile Manufacturing. Average income is 32,090 Tulips, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.4 times as much as the poorest.

War vets look after war animals, families returning from international vacations are unable to get their children back into the country, vacationers and business travelers are often warned that they may lose the right to vote if they spend too much time overseas, and camera crews have accompanied conscripted dancers to film 'Marching On Ice'. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Easter Baskets's national animal is the bunny, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Christianity.

Easter Baskets is ranked 41,484th in the world and 5th in Graveyard for Safest, scoring 105.34 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
