The Earth Pony of Bon-Bon is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons and punitive income tax rates. The hard-nosed population of 13.884 billion Earth Ponies 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 enormous government prioritizes Welfare, with Spirituality, Healthcare, and Education also on the agenda. The average income tax rate is 60.0%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The an Earth Pony economy, worth 467 trillion Bits a year, is highly specialized and mostly made up of the Gambling industry, with significant contributions from Door-to-door Insurance Sales, Tourism, and Arms Manufacturing. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is 33,681 Bits, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.7 times as much as the poorest.

Voting is compulsory, it is a crime to offend someone's religious beliefs, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is almost non-existent, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Bon-Bon's national animal is the Earth Pony, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Bon-Bon is ranked 29,866th in the world and 979th in Osiris for Largest Populations, with 13.9 billion capita.
