The war to end all wars-

In the year, 1914. Archduke of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Franz Ferdinand was assassinated by Serbian Separatists, this lead Austria-Hungary to declare war on Serbia. The already mobilized Rushian Empire declared war on Austrio-Hungary to defend their allies in Serbia, which brought the Empire of Germane in to defend Austrio-Hungary. The Alliance between Prance and Rushia caused Prance to join the war against Germane. German soldiers had to pass through the small nation of Belgium to attack Prench forces. Equestria warned Germane to leave Belgium or else. Germane chose 'or else' and Equestria was brought into the war. Equestria pulled their vassal the Crystal Empire into the war. Then the Kingdom of Italy join the war on the side of Germane. And this where our story begins.

 

It is the year 1916, on the Western front of the war. Equestrian, Prench, and Crystal forces battle against the Germans and their Austro-Hungarian allies on the border. Hundreds of miles of trenches extend across the land as gas attacks, bombardment, and gunfire will the air. The land between the Trenches: No-Pony's-Land is full of corpses, barbed wire, and craters. Before our story ends, ten million ponies will lie dead. Because in this war, there are no winners.

@Pvt. Stitches 

The Ottomans (Saddle Arabia) were on the Eastern Front, the RP takes place on the Western Front

 

Could we play Belgian resistance? 

No sorry, the RP s in the southern part of the Western Front, the Prench part not the Yser Front

Name: Private Cyrille
Race: Earth Pony
Gender: Female
Nationality: Prance
Appearance: 5'9, grey eyes, dark brown hair tied into a short ponytail, good female figure.
Age: 27
Personality: Silent and Rebellious.
Short Backstory: No one really knew who she really was, she just showed up one day and started coming along patrols, she killed her fair share of enemy over the time. At first she used nothing but a old piece of gardening equipment as a weapon to sneak up behind enemies while they were suppressed by her fellow countrymen and brutally execute them with whatever she could get her hands on. She turned almost anything into a tool for death and she was very determined to fight the enemy. After surviving longer than most of the soldiers she was with she was eventually commended for her survivability and loyalty to her country. She was then made an official soldier of the Prance Army and went to the frontlines to face Prance's enemies.    
Role: Sniper

Wish you were in the Prance Nation, seems like you'd be fun to have around and fool with.

 

I figured that the Austrian's needed a representative. (In real life they actually never won a single battle, expect against the Italians) and I wanted to pay homage to my germanic roots

Prance killed its Queen along time ago and as for country, it'll come soon.

Actually, the French still had their royalty at the time of world war 1 as did most of Europe  in one way or another
