The Empire of Bonobiana is a colossal, cultured nation, ruled by Supreme Bonobo with an even hand, and renowned for its soft-spoken computers, parental licensing program, and absence of drug laws. The cynical population of 5.035 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 88.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bonobiano economy, worth 943 trillion Gold Coins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. Average income is an impressive 187,307 Gold Coins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The fate of the world literally rests on Supreme Bonobo's fingers, Bonobiano watches are often the only thing to survive a disaster intact, owning a fishing rod can cause you to be subject to military questioning, and the Bonobiano Intelligence Agency has put 'Project Quantum Refrigerator' on hold indefinitely. 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 3,829^th in the world and 102^nd in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 633.37 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
