The Kingdom of Giovanniland is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by King Giovanni VI with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, compulsory military service, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 10.082 billion Giovannilandians are effectively ruled by a group of massive corporations, who run for political office and provide their well-off citizens with world-class goods and services. Their poorer citizens, however, are mostly starving to death while being urged to go out and get real jobs. The populace has reasonably extensive civil rights, although these are mostly aimed at allowing them to buy whatever they like.

The medium-sized, corrupt, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Industry, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Giovannia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Giovannilandian economy, worth a remarkable 6,133 trillion Abrios a year, is fairly diversified and mostly comprised of black market activity, especially in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Tourism, and Retail. Average income is a breathtaking 608,377 Abrios, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,450,798 per year while the poor average 8,746, a ratio of 623 to 1.

Slavers view "what did your last slave die of" as a request for a demonstration, it is illegal for police officers to carry out searches due to strict privacy laws, takeaway food bought on the weekend now comes with fifty percent more sweat and tears, and self-driving cars occasionally mow down pedestrians to avoid inconveniencing passengers. Crime, especially youth-related, is so common that it is unusual to encounter someone following the law, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. Giovanniland's national animal is the Lavender Macaw, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Violetism.

Giovanniland is ranked 18,030th in the world and 170th in the West Pacific for Most Stationary, with 1,692.00303517292 days.
