The Slow Stream of Gio Farm 4 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its ritual sacrifices, national health service, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, cynical, devout population of 8.887 billion Gio Farm 4ians 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 medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Education. The average income tax rate is 45.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The all-consuming Gio Farm 4ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,150 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. 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 129,454 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.
Politicians have to be granted day-release from prison to speak on bills, kids are arrested at gunpoint for playing with toy rifles, looting and pillaging are now considered vital intelligence-gathering activities, and the government is paving paradises to put up parking lots. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gio Farm 4's national animal is the farmer, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Gio Farm 4 is ranked 86,926th in the world and 13th in Giovanniland for Most Stationary, with 526.88373918308 days.
