The Empire of Bonobiana is a massive, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Supreme Bonobo with an iron fist, and renowned for its keen interest in outer space, sprawling nuclear power plants, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 4.948 billion Bonobistas have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Bonobinópolis. The average income tax rate is 88.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bonobiano economy, worth 931 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is quite specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 188,183 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is technically inaccurate to call the dead 'worm food', movie producers send film critics wads of cash in their morning newspapers in anticipation of gushing praise, prisoners pray grey skies are gonna clear up, and a favorite "life hack" for gap year backpackers is to pretend to be homeless for government handouts. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bonobiana's national animal is the Bonobo, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Temple of Free SEX.

Bonobiana is ranked 271,608^th in the world and 4,953^rd in the South Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring -10.02 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
