The Formidable Flamingo of Gio Farm 82 is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, compulsory military service, and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 8.695 billion Gio Farm 82ians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The medium-sized, corrupt, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Industry, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 59.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Gio Farm 82ian economy, worth a remarkable 1,139 trillion cards a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 131,103 cards, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.5 times as much as the poorest.

Some are born loving old plays and some have old plays thrust upon them, politicians stage photo ops featuring barely functional fighter jets, the long arm of the law possesses a rather slow hand, and top-shelf magazines feature risqué centrefold spreads of ladies' wrists. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Gio Farm 82's national animal is the farm, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Gio Farm 82 is ranked 238,725^th in the world and 248^th in Giovanniland for Most Primitive, scoring -123.59 on the Scary Big Number Scale.
