eddeams 66 December 27, 2020 Share December 27, 2020 (edited) Think about it, it has locations with similar names (Manehattan = Manhattan), and some of its cultural aspects are equivalent to ours. What with Hearth's Warming Eve essentially being Christmas. This makes me think that the planet Equestria is on is Earth in an alternate dimension. Where humans either went extinct or never existed at all and ponies and others became the dominant species instead. Not to mention development has focused mostly on magic while science and technology have remained mostly static. What do you think of this theory?

Happy Heart 377 December 28, 2020 Share December 28, 2020 Don't feel bad; sometimes I'm confused on where certain topics go as well. In response to your question, that is an interesting one. There are so many references to humanistic culture in the ponyverse. Maybe we oughta look into these theories of parallel universes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Piranha 29,495 December 28, 2020 Share December 28, 2020 It’s possible. Not to mention there’s an actual parallel universe with pastel humans 1 Sig by Discords Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is in a different solar system and planet entirely. In my opinion it is this solar system here. The proof is in the stained glass. Alternatively, the proof is here. None of these planets match up to our solar system. It's not Earth. So it's a different planet entirely! This...might help people believe it's real.

BornAgainBrony 2,398 December 29, 2020 Share December 29, 2020 If you take the official map of Equestria, look at the land masses and locations of corresponding cities, it 'mostly' lines up with North and Central America. 11 hours ago, Happy Heart said: So it's a different planet entirely! This...might help people believe it's real. An orbital model of the star and surrounding planets, and yet with the sun being manually raised and lowered, it should be a geocentric star system. Ah, uhh... hmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Heart 377 December 29, 2020 Share December 29, 2020 It's still quite unusual. Maybe it's not a matter of raising the sun and moon at all, but maybe it has something to do with the pony planet's rotation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonic Shimmer 4,137 January 28, 2021 Share January 28, 2021 I think the show is set in this universe, but many years after humans have been wiped out by nuclear war or climate change. Friendship isn't always easy. But it's definitely worth fighting for. Twilight Sparkle is Best Pony! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
