The Kingdom of Giovanniland is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by King Giovanni VI with a fair hand, and renowned for its rum-swilling pirates, daily referendums, and enforced nudity. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, cheerful population of 10.245 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 6,314 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 616,339 Abrios, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 5,522,141 per year while the poor average 8,860, a ratio of 623 to 1.

Families waiting for delayed pipe installations hope daily for rain, the consumption of vegetables is illegal, people who stay late at the office often come home to find their own funeral being planned, and the sound of office water cooler chatter has been replaced by the whirring of computer cooling fans. 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 9,097^th in the world and 166^th in the West Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 13,668.11 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
