The Kingdom of Equestrie is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Twilight Sparkle with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, zero percent divorce rate, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, cynical, devout population of 8.414 billion Equestriens are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Welfare, Education, and Administration. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Canterlot. The average income tax rate is 74.8%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Equestrien economy, worth 455 trillion bits 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 Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Furniture Restoration. Average income is 54,158 bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

One of the nation's leading exports is empty platitudes, city budgets are spent entirely on supporting the town royalty, moonshine has made a resurgence, and employers are finding it hard to screen candidates now that everyone gets A grades in their exams. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Equestrie's national animal is the phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Friendship.

Equestrie is ranked 10,876^th in the world and 2^nd in Utopian Realm for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring 1,732.27 on the Clooney Contribution Index.
