The Bewitching Butterfly of Gio Farm 75 is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, unlimited-speed roads, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 8.627 billion Gio Farm 75ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 51.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Gio Farm 75ian economy, worth 980 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 black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Cheese Exports. 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 113,657 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.1 times as much as the poorest.
Traffic jams are a common sight due to construction work from a massive overhaul of the nation's freeways, military minds worry that 'the blue screen of death' on brand new operating systems may be a literal description, the elderly are killed softly with a song, and wildlife near farms is slowly becoming extinct. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gio Farm 75's national animal is the farm, which is also the nation's favorite main course.
Gio Farm 75 is ranked 46,227th in the world and 176th in Giovanniland for Lowest Crime Rates, with 75.34 law-abiding acts per hour.
