In Gulliver's Travels, the satire is evident in the absurdity of the Lilliputians' society despite their small stature. Swift uses exaggeration to ridicule human behaviors and institutions, such as the political conflicts over trivial matters like which end of the egg to crack. The meticulous laws, protocols, and customs of the Lilliputians are portrayed as ridiculous in order to criticize similar practices in 18th-century Europe.
