The Harmonic Union of Equestrian States is a gargantuan, safe nation, ruled by Princess Celestia with a fair hand, and notable for its museums and concert halls, compulsory vegetarianism, and punitive income tax rates. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 32.146 billion Equestrians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Social Policy. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Canterlot. The income tax rate is 100.0%.

The frighteningly efficient Equestrian economy, worth a remarkable 7,549 trillion Bits a year, is quite specialized and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing, Information Technology, and Basket Weaving. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an amazing 234,863 Bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It's all white elephants on parade, Princess Celestia's luxurious new home has been designated as a protected cultural heritage site, bowling teams spend more time looking at their phones than the pins, and the nation is going green. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Equestrian States's national animal is the Phoenix, which soars majestically through the nation's famously clear skies, and its national religion is Harmonism.

Equestrian States is ranked 298,149^th in the world and 26^th in Arrosia for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring -8.68 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
