The Giraffe Constituent of Giraffe Bay is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its public floggings, keen interest in outer space, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 5.249 billion Giraffe Bayians 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 large, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Administration, and Education. The average income tax rate is 68.7%.

The frighteningly efficient Giraffe Bayian economy, worth 608 trillion Giraffereums a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Soda Sales. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 115,941 Giraffereums, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.5 times as much as the poorest.

'A is for Annulment' is a popular children's song, the government prefers to leave the past buried, the arms industry is backed by government subsidies and harsh anti-protest laws are in place, and the Giraffe Bay City Prison Revue puts on a better stage show than anything in the Theatre District. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Giraffe Bay's national animal is the Giraffe, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Giraffe Bay is ranked 233,046^th in the world and 90^th in The Giraffe Federation for Safest, scoring 22.02 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
