The Memorable Meerkat of Gio Farm 94 is a colossal, orderly nation, remarkable for its soft-spoken computers, disturbing lack of elderly people, and zero percent divorce rate. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless population of 8.56 billion Gio Farm 94ians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. The average income tax rate is 46.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The frighteningly efficient Gio Farm 94ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,187 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, broadly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Beef-Based Agriculture, and Tourism. 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 138,671 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.8 times as much as the poorest.
Gio Farm 94 City is a police state during international summits, exceptionally talented workers are praised more than Revolutionary heroes, political visitors are forced to stop ten paces from Leader's throne, and the nation is committed to nuclear rearmament. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gio Farm 94's national animal is the farm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Gio Farm 94 is ranked 86,947th in the world and 87th in Giovanniland for Most Stationary, with 527.8616760572 days.
