The Celestial Imperium of The Alicorns is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by Empress Terra with an even hand, and notable for its rum-swilling pirates, digital currency, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 24.347 billion Imperials enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

The relatively small, corrupt, liberal government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Equus. The average income tax rate is 86.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Imperial economy, worth an astonishing 14,377 trillion Imperial Bits a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, broadly diversified black market in Information Technology, Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is a breathtaking 590,511 Imperial Bits, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Visiting the best Imperial restaurants requires keeping a visa on file, a faint smell of body odour can be detected at several miles' distance from the National Science Park, pro-democracy regime change has been avoided, and weekends are spent tilting at windmills. Crime is totally unknown. The Alicorns's national animal is the Alicorn, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its national religion is Harmonism.

The Alicorns is ranked 136,775th in the world and 3rd in Hoshizora for Most Stationary, with 227.37022253852 days.
