The Alicorn Triumvirate of Western Equestria is a colossal, genial nation, ruled by Princess Luna with an even hand, and remarkable for its compulsory military service, daily referendums, and absence of drug laws. The compassionate, devout population of 8.444 billion Western Equestrians have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Las Pegasi. The average income tax rate is 48.5%.

The all-consuming Western Equestrian economy, worth 889 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 fairly diversified, is led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Tourism, and Information Technology. Average income is an impressive 105,359 Bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.6 times as much as the poorest.

Foreigners with shady pasts are fleeing the country, there's a bright dawn ahead for Western Equestria, children's daycare starts at the crack of dawn, and obstetricians are not allowed to publish ultrasound pictures of fetuses in medical journals. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Western Equestria's national animal is the Skunk, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Equestrianism.

Western Equestria is ranked 66,847^th in the world and 248^th in Sunset Shimmer for Largest Governments, scoring 19.77 on the Bureaucratic Comprehensiveness Rating Scale Index.
