The Democratic Republic of Ginovlia is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, remarkable for its smutty television, complete lack of prisons, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic population of 4.853 billion Ginovlians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Salvatore. The average income tax rate is 63.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Ginovlian economy, worth 502 trillion Bucks a year, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Retail. Average income is an impressive 103,541 Bucks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The long arm of the law possesses a rather slow hand, census workers struggle to account for the rapidly increasing number of citizens to tabulate, heavy industry must go to expensive lengths to dispose of waste, and failed genetic experiments wreak havoc as they roam the countryside. Crime is totally unknown. Ginovlia's national animal is the Speckled Parrot, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

Ginovlia is ranked 309,251^st in the world and 252^nd in 10000 Islands for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 22.32 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
