Equestria

Equestria is the fictional setting of the fourth and fifth generations of the My Little Pony toy line and media franchise, including the animated television series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and My Little Pony: Pony Life. Created by Lauren Faust, the setting incorporates many elements of fantasy, including inspirations from European and Greek mythology. Equestria serves as the backdrop for the adventures of Twilight Sparkle, the main character of Friendship is Magic, and her friends, collectively referred to as the Mane Six. Equestria is shown to be located on a terrestrial planet, similar to Earth. Equestria hosts many intelligent and sapient creatures, of which the majority are ponies. Equestria's foundation is described as the result of the cooperation of unicorns, pegasi, and earth ponies. The "Bit" is the national currency of Equestria and its territories. Throughout the series, Equestria is ruled by princesses. Although shown to be generally peaceful, Equestria engages in wars with various magical and supernatural threats over the course of the series.
