The Northern Equestrian Empire of Crystal Ponies is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Princess Mi Amore Cadenza with an even hand, and renowned for its zero percent divorce rate, daily referendums, and restrictive gun laws. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful, devout population of 19.61 billion Crystallines are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The enormous, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Environment. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Crystopolis. The average income tax rate is 89.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The thriving Crystalline economy, worth a remarkable 1,751 trillion Crystal Bits a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 89,326 Crystal Bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Rundown towns are frequently sold to billionaires for their pet projects, citizens re-mortgage their homes to buy lottery tickets, the art of conversation has been rediscovered, and mantis shrimp studies is academia's fastest growing field. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Crystal Ponies's national animal is the Ewe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Harmonism.

Crystal Ponies is ranked 171,721st in the world and 38th in Arrosia for Most Stationary, with 95.08585581168 days.
