The Gonkfester Councilars of Generic Monkey is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Mother Superior Mary Vinegarette with an iron fist, and renowned for its triple-decker prams, free-roaming dinosaurs, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.949 billion Scroungers are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The large, corrupt, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Law & Order, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Poooil. The average income tax rate is 62.3%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Scruffy economy, worth a remarkable 1,287 trillion Pambondis a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Retail industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Uranium Mining, and Trout Farming. Black market activity is notable. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 92,310 Pambondis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Army doctors who come under attack defend themselves by using stethoscopes like nunchaku, urban planners beg for just one more lane before bedtime, organ donation rates have hit a new low, and 100-year-old politicians are now a thing of the past. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Generic Monkey's national animal is the Howler Monkey, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Sisters of Ensalada Verde.

Generic Monkey is ranked 232,060^th in the world and 4^th in The Regected Realms for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -4.58 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
