The Storage of GiovanniCards is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Gio the Card Farmer with an even hand, and remarkable for its free-roaming dinosaurs, anti-smoking policies, and disturbing lack of elderly people. The hard-nosed, hard-working, humorless, devout population of 5.998 billion Card Farmers 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, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Card Cathedral. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 67.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Card Farmer economy, worth 893 trillion Cards a year, is fairly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Woodchip Exports, Information Technology, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 148,963 Cards, but there is a large disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 578,276 per year while the poor average 26,268, a ratio of 22.0 to 1.
All tariffs have been abolished, Gio the Card Farmer toils in solitude while relatives party on a remote tropical island, it's rumored that Marche Noire knows what the nation's generals eat for breakfast, and foreign powers often deal with problems that GiovanniCards can't handle. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. GiovanniCards's national animal is the Farmer, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Card Farming.
GiovanniCards is ranked 148,081st in the world and 5th in CARD for Most Avoided, scoring 2.11 on the Kardashian Reflex Score.
