The Protectorate of Hyper Equestria is a titanic, safe nation, ruled by President Vapor Wings with an even hand, and renowned for its frequent executions, zero percent divorce rate, and otherworldly petting zoo. The hard-working population of 19.38 billion Hyper 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 Education, Administration, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Wellington. The average income tax rate is 40.6%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The all-consuming Hyper Equestrian economy, worth a remarkable 2,205 trillion Bits a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, and Book Publishing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 113,811 Bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Soldiers' positions are given away by the glint of their bayonets, recorded music can be rented but not bought from record companies, lavish state dinners in Wellington are the state's leading budgetary expenditure, and schoolchildren are divided over President Vapor Wings's "Why Tigers are Cooler than Lions" speech. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Hyper Equestria's national animal is the Kiwi Pony thing that looks like a potato, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Protestant Harmonism.

Hyper Equestria is ranked 78,889^th in the world and 31^st in Commonwealth of Sovereign States for Most Compassionate Citizens, scoring 45.34 on the Kitten Softness Rating.
