The Animals' Republic of King Bongo the Second is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Bongo the Second with a fair hand, and remarkable for its compulsory vegetarianism, multi-spousal wedding ceremonies, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 7.143 billion Primates are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.
The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — prioritizes Education, although Environment, Administration, and Welfare are also considered important, while Defense is ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of State of Coconut City. The average income tax rate is 98.6%.
The frighteningly efficient Primate economy, worth a remarkable 1,080 trillion bananas a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Tourism, and Beef-Based Agriculture. Average income is an impressive 151,204 bananas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Pandemics are over and done with by the time it takes to pass the nation's stringent border security, country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized, prisons in King Bongo the Second are the summer homes of murderers, and the realistic depiction of tentacles is on the core syllabus of most art schools. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. King Bongo the Second's national animal is the human, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Islam.
King Bongo the Second is ranked 1,222nd in the world and 2nd in The Bongos United for Safest, scoring 153.45 on the Bubble-Rapp Safety Rating.
