The Modified Giovanniland Flag of Gio Farm 143 is a colossal, orderly nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, prohibition of alcohol, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.101 billion Gio Farm 143ians 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, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Education. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 68.3%.

The frighteningly efficient Gio Farm 143ian economy, worth 974 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is extensive. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 120,264 cards, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 353,396 per year while the poor average 32,243, a ratio of 11.0 to 1.

It is illegal to liberate slaves, radio stations are forbidden to play anything with too much drum or bass, soldiers who shoot themselves in the foot are regarded as heroes, and tombstones are ten feet high to accommodate the names of inhabitants. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gio Farm 143's national animal is the farmer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Gio Farm 143 is ranked 87,067th in the world and 158th in Giovanniland for Most Stationary, with 526.85384336888 days.
