The Fore-Shortened Corn Flakes of Bongo Fury is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Sam with the Showing Scalp Flat Top with a fair hand, and renowned for its museums and concert halls, national health service, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, democratic population of 12.68 billion Bongo Furyians hold their civil and political rights very dear, although the wealthy and those in business tend to be viewed with suspicion.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal, outspoken government prioritizes Education, although Industry, Administration, and Environment are also considered important, while Defense and Spirituality aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Utility Muffin Research Kitchen. The average income tax rate is 56.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Bongo Furyian economy, worth a remarkable 4,102 trillion muffins a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an amazing 323,549 muffins, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Schoolyard sandboxes resemble ashtrays due to the large number of cigarette butts, citizens sport solarium-kissed tans that are perfectly even except for the occasional melanoma, the fattest folk in Bongo Fury look to be the happiest ones, and politicians always seem to take two steps forward then three steps back. Crime, especially youth-related, is all-pervasive, probably because of the absence of a police force. Bongo Fury's national animal is the wooden dog, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bongo Fury is ranked 1,744th in the world and 25th in NationStates for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 31,986.23 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
