Doctor XFizzle 8,669 February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 Is it a town where they're known for their tar? Applejack talks about it quite a lot, like it's a weird place or it contains weird things. "What in Tar Nation?!?" Where do you think this is? I know it's "tarnation", some Western-y word, not an actual place. Congrats, you found the hidden message in my troll-like topic. Please type the phrase "all hail glorious Doctor" in your response if you saw this message and then respond as you would if I was actually serious to further confuse others. Thank you. 13 MLP Forums' resident timelord, sports dilettante, and purveyor of wit and humor~*Traveling Timelord Nonpareil*~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperTheAwesome 199 February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 I think Tar Nation is a neighboring country to Equestria. It may be a place that is at war with Equestria. Most likely, it is just a desert filled with Tar pits... Call me Super. If you see me outside of RP World, call Animal Control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyroq 344 February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 I believe it's not far from the island of Lesbia, the place many people believe Rainbow Dash is from. And as we learned in the Mentally Advanced series it's not in the tropics at all, so I'd say mid-latitudes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTheAwesome 199 February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 I've also been wondering about this Tar Nation. Is it inhabited by ponies? Call me Super. If you see me outside of RP World, call Animal Control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Lightning Da Cute 619 February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 Tar Nation is like what the Hay hay! its just a saying which countrymen and women are known for and Applejack fits the deal.

Tyroq 344 February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 I've also been wondering about this Tar Nation. Is it inhabited by ponies? Griffons, actually. It was conquered by Equestria during the great Griffon Wars when Celestia initiated a magical winter, trapping the Griffon armies in Equestria, then sent her own troops to invade and slaughter Griffons in their homeland. When the war was over the Griffons surrendered, and part of the treaty was that they gave up Tar Nation to Equestrian rule. Seriously guys, haven't you read the history of our glorious god-empress? It's borderline treason to not know this stuff! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radiance64 7,053 February 10, 2012 Share February 10, 2012 Tar Nation is where the humans live obviously. The ponies enslaved them long ago, and the humans retaliated by creating a great nation to oppose their great pony overlords. Ponies like Applejack have since had to pick up the slack of the labor the humans once did for them, which is why she seems to refer to Tar Nation with distaste by using its name to question moments she finds unfavorable. Duh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comet Tail 808 February 11, 2012 Share February 11, 2012 (edited) Is it a town where they're known for their tar? Applejack talks about it quite a lot, like it's a weird place or it contains weird things. "What in Tar Nation?!?" Where do you think this is? All hail glorious doctor! Move along, nothing to see here... The text stood out in the quote by eldarsteve Okay, the doctor is not a sports fan. Sorry. That bothered me... I believe it's not far from the island of Lesbia, the place many people believe Rainbow Dash is from. And as we learned in the Mentally Advanced series it's not in the tropics at all, so I'd say mid-latitudes.
