The Royal Protectorate of MineLegotipony is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Princess-Governor Octavia the 23rd with an even hand, and notable for its smutty television, unlimited-speed roads, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic, humorless, devout population of 14.196 billion MineLegotiponyians are either ruled by a sleek, efficient government or a conglomerate of multinational corporations; it's difficult to tell which.

The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of New Manehattan. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 85.7%.

The frighteningly efficient MineLegotiponyian economy, worth a remarkable 3,148 trillion Bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Book Publishing. Black market activity is rampant. Average income is an amazing 221,757 Bits, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,445,962 per year while the poor average 13,459, a ratio of 107 to 1.

Bris parties are all the rage, the government is notorious for leaving citizens with almost nothing from their inheritance, the studies of art and philosophy are banned, and a five-year-old and a convicted terrorist can sit alongside one another in jury service. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. MineLegotipony's national animal is the Timderdog, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Protestant Harmonism.

MineLegotipony is ranked 286,567^th in the world and 166^th in Confederation of Corrupt Dictators for Nicest Citizens, with 0.27 average smiles per day.
