The Wide Waves of Gio Farm 15 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, notable for its teetotalling pirates, prohibition of alcohol, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 8.982 billion Gio Farm 15ians are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 54.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gio Farm 15ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,184 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, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Woodchip Exports, and Cheese Exports. 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 131,901 cards, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gio Farm 15's national animal is the farmer, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
