 The answer is simple, e.g:
In[1]:=
t=DiagonalMatrix[Array[1&,{1153}]];

However, I would not wish to find out what happens if one tries to display
this. You can however manipulate it without displaying it:

In[2]:=
Dimensions[t]

Out[2]=
{1153,1153}

In[4]:=
Tr[t]

Out[4]=
1153

In[5]:=
Det[t]

Out[5]=
1

Though of course you do not really need a computer for any of this...
