The Federal Republic of GI-Land is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by Leader and King Gianluca IV with an even hand, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, irreverence towards religion, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate population of 21.806 billion Gianlucians 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 enormous government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Atlantis. The average income tax rate is 85.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse GI-Landian economy, worth a remarkable 1,709 trillion Gianlucian Tacks a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 78,394 Gianlucian Tacks, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The government has begun breaking all large businesses into thousands of mom-and-pop general stores, bemused citizens are encouraged to sing foreign-language hymns of religions they have never heard of, films are funded in accordance with the volume of tears shed when reading the screenplay, and there's no representation without taxation. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. GI-Land's national animal is the Phoenix-Cat, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies.

GI-Land is ranked 14,259^th in the world and 377^th in the South Pacific for Longest Average Lifespans, with 91.06 years.
