Theory My history theory

[Dusty Soul 2,611]

Ok, I've been posting this as an answer to many topics, so I might as well make a topic for it.

 

Discord was the ruler of Equestria before it even became Equestria. He was a nice ruler and always wanted best for his subjects, but then (as we saw in the hearths warming eve episode) Equestria was founded, seeing this new thing called friendship, he grew angry. He began performing acts of chaos on the land. He tormented the ponies so much that they were forced to leave the new country. A group of ponies ventured farther, searching for help. They came across a large village of strange ponies, known as alicorns. They were powerful in the art of magic. (At this time, Discord raised the sun and moon at random moments.) They asked their leaders for help, (Celestia and Luna) they rose and defeated Discord using the elements of harmony. The ponies rejoiced and named Celestia and Luna the rulers of Equestria. They restored balance, by raising the sun and moon at equal increments of time. Thus creating balance in Equestria. Most alicorns stayed in their village, but some remained in the Everfree (where the first castle was built.) They realized that they couldn't rule a kingdom in a heavy forest so they moved it to the mountains, where they constructed Canterlot.

 

 

Far fetched... Maybe...

 

Works for me at least.

Hmmmm, seems like a decent theory. However, why would they build the castle in the Everfree Forest when they knew it was a dark place filled with suspicious creatures?

Maybe back before equestria it wasn't inhabited by evil creatures but it was just to dense of a forest and it didn't make sense for them to stay there. And once the people left the forest was taken over by evil creatures?

 

Its a pretty solid theory Btw.

It said they "built" not thought about building it in the Everfree Forest. Why would they do that if they were surrounded by dark forest the whole time? Rather than building it in a more ideal area to begin with?

Good point... Idk I guess i'd have to say thats the only flaw with this theory then. Rather the only one I see. I don't really see a reason I guess for them building in the everfree forest.

This was thousands of years ago. Chances are the Everfree Forest was far smaller than it is now. Take a look at the Canon Map of Equestria. The castle is surrounded by a pair of arms coming out from the main forest. I'm willing to bet that those are something that grew out during those thousand years, ergo, back in the ancient days it was open land. Perfect for a castle, and maybe a small wooden village that is now gone from decay, leaving the immortal stone castle. I had a post somewhere talking about my own idea of Equestria's history, just based on this map. Too bad I can't find the freaking post, now.

I'm just talking about his theory. Look at the bold:

Since he mentioned it, I just wanted to point it out from HIS theory. Your thoughts and the map actually do seem pretty cool, though.

Regardless what you were responding to, you were responding to it with the notion that the forest was still as it is (surrounding the castle). I'm giving a possible alternative. :3

I find myself agreeing with this theory, it does make quite slot of sence. I've always wondered why celestia and Luna are only princesses though, considering they are rulers shouldn't they be queens?

 

Also, because of your name/avatar change I have to deduct points from you again dusty

I really like this idea, I just dont really know about the village of Alicorns, Because I thought the two princesses were more like goddesses, I dont really know thought.

I think Hasbro, Said they should be princesses because younger kids thought that a queen was evil, That is what I heard so I dont really know if it is true or not.
