The Dominion of Gio Farm 25 is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its compulsory military service, ritual sacrifices, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 10.175 billion Gio Farm 25ians are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.
The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 70.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Gio Farm 25ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,379 trillion cards a year, is quite specialized and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Tourism, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 135,613 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.
Soldiers with colourful mohawks make themselves perfect targets for snipers, brains have been removed from lists of best brain foods, nobody is allowed to stop the local daycare from reading Nietzsche to pre-schoolers, and artists from across the nation compete to renovate the restrooms of old government buildings. 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 25's national animal is the farmer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Gio Farm 25 is ranked 54,803rd in the world and 114th in Giovanniland for Smartest Citizens, with 40.88 quips per hour.
