Give it a distinctive name, head to the image uploader, and upload it. Then copy the URL it spits out. (Note: the image has to be fairly small to get away with this.)

We talked about it a bit, and I would guess that while Celestia nominally holds equal status with other monarchs - or even that she ranks slightly below certain other rulers, given that she's the princess of a (probably) small, peaceful farming nation, the fact that she raises the sun, combined with her expertise and wisdom, is probably more than enough weight to give her 'soft' power that far exceeds most of the others'.

I'd put it like this, based off both Dangerous Business and my own ideas:

Dragon Empire (throne recently, ahem, emphatically vacated by Celestia)
Equestria
Kudu Nations of the East, Shimmerwood Deer
Camel Nations
Zebra Nations
Gryphons, Gildedale, Unaffiliated City-states

I have a theory that 'countries' in the MLP world are actually floating continents drifting through the void of space together. Think of an orderly asteriod feild.

That would certainly put a new twist on the "Equestria may have borders" statement.

What if there really are sea ponies, and they are ruled by a Prince (or even) King Poseidon? Would he in charge of the tides and plate movements or something?

If that's true then Dragons can apparently fly through space.

If Dragonshy is any indication

Don't be silly, it wouldn't be ruled by Poseidon.

It would be ruled by Ponyseidon.

Double edit: Sorry.

Personally, the Trixie episode is my least favorite. The Ursa Minor was cool, but there's only so manly times you can hear "The great and powerful Trixie"

before you want to strangle someone.

There is nothing more offensive than science.

This is sort of why I want to see Zecora's homeland. We already know it exist(ed), seeing it will add more to Equestria.

Edit: Seriously. Whenever I try to post, 3+ other posts are made. I really need to refresh the page.

YMMV. Trixie is one of the best things about this show to me personally

I confess, I love Trixie too. Even her hat. Especially her hat.

I love her smugness and her facial expressions and her sense of the theactrical.

And yes, we move fast here!

Impressively, "Great and Powerful Trixie" popped up higher on my google search bar than "Great and Powerful Oz".

#22989 tectonic Robot Tue, 27th Sep '11 6:15:07 PM

I uh, I don't really care for Trixie. She's alright I suppose.

I guess you could say I'm ambivalent towards her.

The hat's ok...

I don't like Trixie, but the fanart and backstory for her is really great.

IMNSHO, she's kind of a loudmouthed jerk whose only saving grace is her taste in headwear.

I'm kinda ambivalent about her, although the fact that she's a Large Ham helped a bit.

I just liked the fact that she was an arrogant jackass who actually had some talent (even if it wasn't as much as she claimed) I thought it was different

And the fact that she was a Large Ham

I natrually side with villains anyway

Personally, I'd agree with the commenter who said it causes internal bleeding, but whatever, that's where YMMV comes in I guess.

Speaking of villians, I really want to see the Diamond Dogs return. I love those dopey (yet suprisingly capabile) mutts!

I'd love for there to be more DD level villans...worse than jerks like Trixie and Gilda, but below despair enducing monsters like Discord.

I get it!
