The Most Holy and Great Archduke of Bishop Gian is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by The Elder Knight with an even hand, and remarkable for its keen interest in outer space, free-roaming dinosaurs, and otherworldly petting zoo. The compassionate, devout population of 3.593 billion Bishop Gianians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ancient Rome. The average income tax rate is 37.8%.

The thriving Bishop Gianian economy, worth 315 trillion Diamond Pounds a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Trout Farming industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Furniture Restoration, and Basket Weaving. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 87,867 Diamond Pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.2 times as much as the poorest.

Spoiler warnings are now given out before political speeches, billions of Diamond Pounds are spent to take high-quality photos of the Unicorn Nebula, recreational drug businesses are regularly pruned if they grow above the maximum legal size, and prisoners work-share to cut down rising costs of keeping them in jail. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bishop Gian's national animal is the Unicorn, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Catholicism.

Bishop Gian is ranked 109,777th in the world and 3rd in True Waskaria for Lowest Crime Rates, with 66.54 law-abiding acts per hour.
