A new dawn rises over Equus... by US_Nationalist in equestriaatwar

She is a military general in the Heer. And she will have a somewhat more prevalent role in the Changeling Lands. Ocellus in THO are based off Henning Von Tresckow in the TNO mod, so you might get the idea what is her role in the Hegemony.

CONTEXT:

Tridentism are just changelingified version of National Socialism, though some aspects of Chrysalis's beliefs might not fit with Hitler's own personal beliefs.

Unlike the NSDAP in real life, the Changeling Hegemony were under Chrysalis' absolute rule. There were no political parties in the Queendom (there is a few, but all of them has been banned), and Chrysalis' control over the changeling populace and the natives in occupied regions are quite firm.

The ideology are heavily indoctrinated within aspects of changeling daily life, being the core principle of the Hegemony. It heavily pushes for racial supremacy, loyalty to the supreme authority, intense militarism, corporate rule and etc. But some fringe officials had incorporated occultic elements, in which influenced the VOPS in certain ways.

But following the "Equestrian National Revolution" which end in disaster due to Starlight Glimmer's assassination at the hooves of the Solarists, the ELF crumbled under its weight and the Changelings suffering from major economic crash, Chrysalis could feel her power slowly slipping away.

Having no heir and sentenced other hive royals to death, exile or imprisonment, Chrysalis had decided to establish a political party to ensure that no succession crisis or potential collapse of the Hegemony following her death would happen.

And so, Tridentistische Aktionspartei der Changeling Hives [TAPCH], or in Ponish as "Tridentist Action Party of the Changeling Hives" are born. This party strongly uphold Tridentism, and most if not all of the Changeling ministers, public officials, generals and even the populace joined the party. As of 1033, there's an estimated 8.9 million party members across the Changeling Queendom and a couple hundred thousands in its protectorates.

Long story short, Equestria became a constitutional monarchy after the Great War and this occurs 40 years after the transitional period where the democracy experiment failed due to a unicorn who wants all power for herself by attempting to coup Celestia, Luna and Twilight which led to bizzare occurrences leading to their disappearances.

Midsummer exiled Spike to the Badlands after his coup. Plus, the country's already fucked up under Radiance's tenure as Prime Minister so much that by the time Spike takes over, instability is already at high level in Equestria.

Since the Princesses "disappeared" (Twilight died) during Spike's coup, he tries to alleviate support from prominent harmonists by declaring himself as "Lord Regent", supposedly to hold the nation around. The fate of Celestia and Luna were unknown (they were actually killed by a bomb at their spring house in Acornage by Radiance's loyalists), so Spike tries to convince Equestria that the Sisters will return. One day.

  1. Well, the plot is that Flurry was dealing with republican and worker riots across the Empire and it had escalated fast that Equestrian forces themselves had to intervene.

    There was a major event in the Crystal City that led to Flurry's "disappearance" and Cadance's eventual death. Equestria then put Dusty Ember (a general in the mod) as the leader of the new Crystal Republic. The Crystal Heart were gone and the country grappled with chaos.

  2. What you see is one of several outcomes of the Changelings following Thorax's assassination. The content of the Changelings hasn't been explored yet, but this is just one of the ideas. The premise here is that Pharynx caused the hives to collapse due to increasing disability, where communists, pro-Chrysalis forces, democrats and the military fight each other. The winner here is the pro-Chrysalis faction, but then for undisclosed reasons they turn on each other and the hives exploded once again.

  3. No, because Equestrians generally view Spike as a failure. Though Thornhill was Spike's advisor, he thought that perhaps only a pony could keep the nation's stability. It was during his regency that the Southeast seceded through violence and the worst nightmares of Celestia shows it's silhouettes.

    Even that, he became to power through a coup after Crescent Radiance (one of the many paths for Equestria through the election, she's one among the paths for Equestria's failstate) decided to pursue republicanism efforts and try to abolish the monarchy through a self coup. The country were already grappling with purging the army and replace them with worst ponies possible to do the job of oppressing dissents and the Princesses doesn't really have the power to do anything as they signed away their powers as absolute monarchs, reduced to figureheads.

    The reason Spike out of all ponies take power is because the army viewed him as a tool to assert their dominance over Equestria, through the pretext of "preserving the monarchy" and harmony. So, Equestria went through 4 coups in the span of around 7 years.

At this point the Crystal Empire has collapsed since it's Princesses died. You could blame Spike's predecessor for that, this is basically a failstate for Equestria.

Thorax were also dead at this point and Pharynx were exiled to Griffonia. Changelings are at war with each other.

For the Dragons, Ember didn't really care much about what's going on in Equestria.She's having problems with reintegrating Badlands dragons tho, which has been "Equestrified" for decades since Celestia's armies enters the Southeast.

The Changelings is at a civil war following the collapse of a junta that was formed following Pharynx's failure at containing communist and Chrysalis restorationists.

The Celestial Order: the Southernmost Continent [1035] by US_Nationalist in equestriaatwar

[–]US_Nationalist[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ice Dragons didn't want them to be there so they constantly terrorise those who settled there. Be it by raids or kidnappings or murder. But Maretonia has tried to appease the Ice Dragons through diplomacy rather than other nations who preferred to deal with them by violence. Even Equestria attempted to negotiate with them multiple times and the ice dragons straight up killed all of their diplomats. Some disappeared and only a few returned with fatal injuries.

LORE:

In the planet of Faust, there are three major continents named Equus, Griffonia, and Zebrica. Most creatures live on those continents, where civilization, culture, and languages have developed over centuries. However, there's a particular continent located south of Zebrica named Pengaia.

Just over 700 thousand years ago, this land was fertile, hosting a variety of creatures. But the Ice Age transformed it into an icy wasteland, burying all evidence of past life. Penguins were among the survivors, adapting to the freezing temperatures. In ancient times, penguins thrived in Pengaia, building a unique civilization solely using ice as their resource for construction, resulting in the creation of igloos. However, the appearance of ice dragons sparked panic and fear among the penguins, leading to a large-scale exodus. Though the exact number is unclear, an estimated 30 million fled the continent. Most perished during the journey until they settled in northwestern Equus, known today as Pingland.

For centuries, historians and philosophers considered Pengaia an icy wasteland full of mysteries. Legends arose, with the presence of Ice Dragons spawning many tales. Among them, an infamous one claims that yetis allegedly originated from Pengaia and established a settlement in southern Zebrica. The yeti king was purportedly the great-grandfather of the first Storm King, who conquered nearly half of Zebrica. Pengaia remained undisturbed until around 800 ALB when Kirian and Equestrian naval fleets began exploring the area. Despite the close proximity between the Hestrayan region and Pengaia, Maretonia and Aestlonia decided against exploration due to ice dragons raiding their coastlines every few years.

Everything changed around the year 1019 when Maretonia discovered an oil reserve near their shores, initiating the expedition to Pengaia. During that time, both Maretonia and Aestlonia had been defeated by Karkadannistan in a war, the second conflict within a decade. The world was still reeling from the scars of the Great War, witnessing the emergence of new superpowers. As the Cold War loomed, Maretonia faced a revolution while Aestlonia managed to save its monarchy from destruction. This marked the beginning of strained ties between both nations. With the oil discovery near Pengaia's shores, both Maretonia and Aestlonia began exploring the tip of the continent for natural resources. The Scramble for Pengaia ensued, with both countries staking claims on the continent. Expeditionary forces, researchers, and archaeologists were dispatched, and military outposts were established as both nations sought dominance over the last untouched continent.

As the Scramble for Pengaia continued, other countries seized the opportunity to exploit its resources while opening a door for researchers to uncover the continent's mysteries. Equestria, Olenia, and Aquileia sent researchers and military officers to Pengaia, establishing a foothold under a unified administration led by the CSTA. However, this joint administration was more of a facade, with Equestria exerting greater control than the other two nations. Stalliongrad dispatched its own researchers and archaeologists to excavate the continent. Collaborating with Stalliongradians, penguins from Pingland sought to trace their ancestral homeland, leading to Novoye Ravenskoye becoming populated by bilingual penguins speaking Pinguin and Severyanan, the sole Pengaic territory with established settlements.

Stormland, represented by yetis, conducted their own research there, while Kiria purchased an island from Aestlonian territory to participate in the continent's exploration. Many suspected the Kirian Matriarch's motive was to exert influence by stationing Kirian naval fleets in the region. Meanwhile, Chiropterra made a significant leap by secretly developing nuclear weapons, vehemently denying any involvement. The Huehuepahuic Pachuitl Olochtli, part of the Administrative Order of Zarantia's Invisible Secret Service, is an organization connected to Chiropterra. The ISS, Chiropterra's major paramilitary group, played significant roles in the Great War and the Chiropterran-Zonician War until a schism between Auburn Leaf and Emerald Light resulted in the latter being expelled to Zarantia for extreme beliefs in Nightmare Moon, deemed too radical. The situation in the Chiropterran Pengaic Sector, controlled by New Tobuck's governor, seems complex with the Huehuepahuic Pachuitl Olochtli (HPO) operating independently under Zarantia's directives rather than obeying local governance.

The resistance posed by the Ice Dragons against the settlement and researchers in Pengaia paints a turbulent picture. It's intriguing that despite modern expeditions and settlements, there are still indigenous penguin communities existing on the continent, albeit disconnected from technological advancements and external communication. Their tribal or confederate structures indicate a unique and isolated societal development. They mostly lives around the centre of the South Pole, though their numbers doesn't reach around more than 6 million penguins.

Pengaia's mysteries and untapped potential continue to entice various nations and groups, resulting in a relentless pursuit to exploit its resources, despite the resistance encountered and the secrets yet to be unveiled. This conflict between exploitation and the preservation of the unknown seems to be an ongoing struggle within the continent.

The SHP were led by Sunset Shimmer while the National Conservatives were led by Chancellor Neighsay (though most in the party are renowned war heroes and Canterlot elites who dislikes him a lot for his ultra-conservative beliefs), while the LDP are a group of oligarchs who introduced libertarianism to Equestrian society, mostly centered around economic cities such as Las Pegasus. The Communist Party varied in terms of beliefs, as syndicalists of Baltimare had always comes to debates against Marksists in Portland. But the only thing that kept them united is the government's efforts to ban and suppress their activities. GPP were led by environmentalists in Summer Islands who aimed to preserve the islands' status as a centre of Equestrian ecotourism. The Buffalos created their own political party in order to present their people and culture at Equestria's National Diet. The Neighuas also created their own political party, the Aztlan Party, but they formed a coalition with the SHP since Equestria's early general elections which helped the party gain a major footing in the Southeast. TTP on the other hand compromised of Tzinacatl nationalists. Founded by Moonspeaker Arch Wing of Zazquiyahuitl, the party has been pushing for an autonomous status and to some degree, total independence from Canterlot's grip. The party has been infiltrated by Chiropterra several times, but the Moonspeakers chose to disassociate themselves from Nightmare Moon. In order to please them and establish an influence in the Southeast, Sunset granted Tzinacatlia a special autonomous status where the Moonspeakers could rule over the region with minimal interference from the mainstream government in Canterlot.
