The Republic of Gio5 is a colossal, efficient nation, renowned for its ritual sacrifices, ubiquitous missile silos, and complete absence of social welfare. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 7.203 billion Gio5ians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 29.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The very strong Gio5ian economy, worth 462 trillion Gold Orbs a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 64,182 Gold Orbs, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.6 times as much as the poorest.

Many of the unemployed have had the fight taken out of them, clumsy self-injury is a viable claim in modern compensation culture, Gio5 City's back alleys are rife with sausage eating, and foreign countries consider stepping on their grass to be a serious offense. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Gio5's national animal is the Elephant, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Gio5 is ranked 94,658^th in the world and 60^th in Empire of Love for Most Advanced Defense Forces, scoring 2,716.95 on the Total War Preparedness Rating.
