The Equine State of Dakota Territories is a colossal, efficient nation, ruled by Lady Sparkles with an even hand, and remarkable for its pith helmet sales, punitive income tax rates, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic population of 7.811 billion Ponies enjoy extensive civil rights and enjoy a level of social equality free from the usual accompanying government corruption.

The enormous, liberal, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Defense. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Stables. The average income tax rate is 93.5%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The frighteningly efficient Equine economy, worth a remarkable 1,108 trillion Apple Seeds a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing, Book Publishing, and Tourism. State-owned companies are common. Average income is an impressive 141,875 Apple Seeds, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Cosmopolitan citizens ask what their countries can do for them, UFO sightings are listed daily in the morning news, the poor are often seen pale and dizzy after selling their blood to make ends meet, and country folk are sent to obligatory boarding schools to learn how to be civilized. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Dakota Territories's national animal is the Pony, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Equestrianism.

Dakota Territories is ranked 232,725th in the world and 4,589th in The North Pacific for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.94 kickbacks per hour.
