The Holy Empire of The Almighty Mare is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Ridem Cowboy with an iron fist, and renowned for its frequent executions, unlimited-speed roads, and compulsory military service. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 41.753 billion Almighty Mares are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Spirituality. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Great Plainsville. The average income tax rate is 21.8%.

The thriving Almighty economy, worth a remarkable 2,682 trillion saddles a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 64,236 saddles, with the richest citizens earning 5.3 times as much as the poorest.

Ambulances aren't allowed to overtake hearses, former arms manufacturing CEOs are now delivering food for minimum wage, foreign governments are threatened if they so much as mention the word "election", and the mob and the police have recently had numerous clashes in the back alleys of The Almighty Mare's cities due to the government's steadfast anti-casino stance. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force. The Almighty Mare's national animal is the crock-a-rere, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation, and its national religion is Catholicism.

The Almighty Mare is ranked 229,129^th in the world and 4^th in Vatican II for Highest Food Quality, scoring 9.37 on the Meeshlin-Starr Index.
