The Armed Republic of Giathio is a mammoth, safe nation, ruled by Supreme Leader Varst with an iron fist, and notable for its pith helmet sales, digital currency, and national health service. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.721 billion Giathians 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 government prioritizes Defense, with Law & Order, Administration, and Industry also on the agenda, while International Aid and Spirituality receive no funds. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Britannica. The average income tax rate is 76.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Giathian economy, worth a remarkable 1,022 trillion Gnyoplas a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 178,663 Gnyoplas, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.1 times as much as the poorest.

Newly-peaceful nations are forced to use assault rifles as farming tools due to a lack of funds for purchasing anything else, military pilots jettison listening devices as chaff to confuse enemy missiles, the military is blowing up any threat to employment within the nation, and the nation frequently scolds its subject territories for staying up past bedtime. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Giathio's national animal is the Raven, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is CODECO Propaganda.

Giathio is ranked 25,054^th in the world and 56^th in The League for Highest Poor Incomes, with 83,158.98 Standard Monetary Units.
