“Giraffes, Giraffes, Giraffes”

Overview • Policies • People • Government • Economy • Rank • Trend • Cards

The Giraffe Constituent of Giraffe Isles is a colossal, efficient nation, notable for its frequent executions, infamous sell-swords, and avowedly heterosexual populace. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 5.035 billion Giraffe Islesians are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Defense. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 55.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Giraffe Islesian economy, worth 661 trillion Giraffereums a year, is broadly diversified and dominated by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Uranium Mining, Basket Weaving, and Information Technology. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an impressive 131,294 Giraffereums, with the richest citizens earning 6.5 times as much as the poorest.

The aphorism "there's no need to argue" has been dismissed by Giraffe Islesians, the end of communism came with retail rather than revolution, populations of two-headed Giraffes have been found around recently-uncovered archaeological sites, and citizens are enjoying a recent large cut in taxes. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Giraffe Isles's national animal is the Giraffe, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Giraffe Isles is ranked 41,994^th in the world and 8^th in The Giraffe Federation for Lowest Crime Rates, with 76.88 law-abiding acts per hour.
