The King of All Wild Things is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Maurice Sendup with an even hand, and renowned for its national health service, hatred of cheese, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate population of 14.056 billion Wild Things enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The medium-sized, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Environment, Education, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Max's room. The average income tax rate is 56.6%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The powerhouse Wild economy, worth a remarkable 1,602 trillion hot suppers a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a large, well-organized, quite specialized black market in Tourism, Information Technology, Gambling, and Retail. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is an impressive 114,042 hot suppers, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The police have taken to prying guns out of the cold fingers of Wild Things, kids laugh off vandalism and arson as "just fun", the government's stance on marriage is 'Let Wild Things marry themselves', and lovesick people are told 'it's not them, it's you'. Crime, especially youth-related, is a major problem, perhaps because of the country's complete lack of prisons. All Wild Things's national animal is the wild thing, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

All Wild Things is ranked 8,531^st in the world and 1^st in Where the Wild Things Are for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 2,006.18 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
