The Republic of Giraffo is a massive, safe nation, renowned for its frequent executions. The hard-working population of 1.049 billion Giraffoans are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 21.6%.

The Giraffoan economy, worth 45.4 trillion bitcoins a year, is led by the Gambling industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 43,287 bitcoins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.

It's not just poseurs who wear oversized sound-cancelling headphones as they walk the city streets, ship captains always order a return to port at the slightest sign of rain, Violetist maidens who fall for an outsider must leave their violet light districts in shame, and it's considered providence that the political lexicon contains a syrup of company slogans. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Giraffo's national animal is the Giraffe, which can occasionally be seen sifting through garbage in the nation's cities.

Giraffo is ranked 182,218^th in the world and 2^nd in The Giraffe Republic for Largest Arms Manufacturing Sector, scoring 2,244.31 on the Charon Conveyancy Index.
