The Animals' Republic of King Bongo the Second is a mammoth, cultured nation, ruled by Bongo the Second with a fair hand, and renowned for its ban on automobiles, free-roaming dinosaurs, and multi-spousal wedding ceremonies. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 7.074 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, with Environment, Administration, and Welfare also on the agenda, 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 1,066 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 150,805 bananas, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

No one gossips with Bongo the Second during diplomatic summits, the nation's taxpayers pay for foreign governments' extravagances, exceptionally healthy police officers can sprint after crooks for hours on end, and tax-payers are funding ever more extravagant movie projects. 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 1,432^nd in the world and 2^nd in The Bongos United for Most Eco-Friendly Governments, scoring 13,933.62 on the Dolphin Recycling Awareness Index.
