The Modified Giovanniland Flag of Gio Farm 136 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its ubiquitous missile silos, unlimited-speed roads, and free-roaming dinosaurs. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.362 billion Gio Farm 136ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 37.3%.

The powerhouse Gio Farm 136ian economy, worth 856 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 a large, well-organized, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. 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 102,393 cards, with the richest citizens earning 7.8 times as much as the poorest.

The ban on cars has been repealed, the decision to be oppressed is now made democratically, the nation is relieved that all of the recent madness has finally come to an end, and foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election". Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gio Farm 136's national animal is the farmer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gio Farm 136 is ranked 42,733rd in the world and 168th in Giovanniland for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 168.63 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
