The Easter Matriarchy of Tsatsakkh is a mammoth, orderly nation, ruled by Kcevi Aiba Bežerce II with an iron fist, and notable for its complete lack of prisons, public floggings, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 6.303 billion Otsakkh 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 government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic morass — juggles the competing demands of Industry, Environment, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Burda. The average income tax rate is 94.4%.

The frighteningly efficient Artsakkh economy, worth a remarkable 1,071 trillion Brokks a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, extremely specialized black market in Retail and Information Technology. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 170,023 Brokks, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

Shouting contests are an important part of government job interviews, only government officials may operate computers, the ego of former emperors tend to match their stature, and they unpaved paradise and tore up a parking lot (ooh, bop bop bop). Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Tsatsakkh's national animal is the Bunny, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Deoƙen.

Tsatsakkh is ranked 66th in the world and 5th in Forest for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 36,982.54 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
