as Drasnia once wrote
An Easter Egg is a special type of issue that nations can only ever encounter once. They're meant to be jokes and references about NationStates that would otherwise not be suitable in a normal issue.
Or in other words, they are funny issues that do not refer to a problem your nation is facing, it's more like a joke.
Another unique point of Easter Egg is that in most cases Easter Egg issues are not triggered by the stats or the policies or your nation, but rather by your nation's custom settings, your motto, your animal, your pre-title for example or by the Easter Egg counter.
While many suggested a population of 1 billion to begin hunting for Easter Eggs, all nations regardless of their population can hunt and appreciate the Easter Eggs. To be more exact, 80, 223, 266, 375, 408, and 471 do not have any population requirement. 215 require at least 500 million, 622 require at least 750 million, 1122 require at least 1 billion and 78 require 1.25 billion.
This Guide will cover the requirement for all Easter Eggs but 1.

The newest easter egg, it was given to every nation who logged during the 20 anniversary, although its current validities are unknown.
Nations can trigger at least 10 Easters with the following settings
So. if you guys find easter egg to be funny like me, you now have will information you need to find them
Also, noting that we do not know anything about 256. if anyone find, can you share the settings and the stats you had when you found it ? this would be very helpful for all hunters out here.
so, that's will be all. over and out. And Good Hunting.
Edit :
Minskiev claim to have found 256 by being capitalist, and having gold in crime. We need more test to back this claim.
