The Giant Galaxies of Gio Farm 42 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its disturbing lack of elderly people, compulsory military service, and ubiquitous missile silos. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.925 billion Gio Farm 42ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 81.0%.
The frighteningly efficient Gio Farm 42ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,489 trillion cards a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, quite specialized black market in Arms Manufacturing, Trout Farming, Information Technology, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 166,867 cards, but there is a significant disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 522,469 per year while the poor average 40,863, a ratio of 12.8 to 1.
Nature reserves often contain artificial waterfalls and concrete paths, frustrated women are overjoyed at the provision of communal washing machines, litter collection has replaced fast food as the most popular after-school job, and they say the best compromise leaves everyone feeling a little unarmed. 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 42's national animal is the farmer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Gio Farm 42 is ranked 86,954th in the world and 41st in Giovanniland for Most Stationary, with 526.8795586302 days.
