Equestria is probably a federated constitutional monarchy. Each city or town seems to have considerable local autonomy, but under the overall authority of the Princesses.
Wikipedia refers to it as a "semi-constitutional coregency, ethnostate-principality" A federation implies much, much larger subnational structures than individual cities and towns, ones on the scale of independant nations in their own wright. But yes, Equstria allows for a high degree of local autonomy, as you see in most feudal systems (because Equestria seems more agricultural than industrial). Equestria is in the early-to-mid 20th century as we knew it, and it just doesn't have a particular need to alter its organization dramatically on it's peaceful and harmonious planet where magic can solve food shortages and the military is an elite corps of professional lifetime soldiers, rather than a national effort.
@@darthvocrum5719 "Semi-constitutional" means there are some rules that can restrain the monarch, but the royalty retains significant power over the legislature and/executive government. "Coregency" means there are two or more regents (individuals filling the role of monarch) in command of the state. "Ethnostate" refers to a nation of exclusively one ethnicity, in the case, ponies, of many different cultures under that generalization. A "Principality" is a state ruled by a prince or princess.
@@Androthegoth There definitely is a wider government than just the diarchy, there absolutely could be a parliament, but the princesses having a very real and frequently used final say over issues of government (arbitrating disputes like a judge, unilaterally passing legislation, and having direct command of the military) implies a lot of power over them. If there is an elected parliament in Canterlot, I'd personally call Equestria a parliamentary diarchy, rather than a 'democracy.'

"Shine as the moon, brighten as the sun, a new journey has begun, may our magic scatter under the dawning Blight, remember our friendship, Equestrian's Light"
Almost 5 years since this was made, and it still is one of the most inspirational pieces I have ever heard so far. It just shows how great your music is, because being able to give the greatest goosebumps for that long is straight up legendary!
Thank you Bearers of Harmony. You have rescued the north, united the east and west and tamed the south. Now, let us strive for a better tomorrow, as a united land. As Equestria.
So happy to hear this--I was thinking something identical to this as I watched it...How moving it all was to have both of them together again, for the sun celebration to TRULY be a celebration between the two. Thank you for making this, for capturing the essence of their kinship as sisters and the reuniting of Equestria as it was. Beautiful job.
My fellow Equestrians The sun has dawned on the kingdom once again, but this day, this year we must fight harder then ever before to bring friendship. We shall not fall at the hands of evil humans. Its our time to bring harmony to our own world with all the love, we must stand hand in hand, hoof in hoof, and show them what the world can be. as a group of people we live in most of the countries in the world and all though we may have our differences we try and make it work. Its time we changed and now is a good a time as any. Long live the Equestrian dream ~Terros blue~ please repost
OMG SOMEBODY NEEDS TO MAKE A FANMADE MOVIE ABOUT A WAR BETWEEN HUMANS AND PONY. But at the end they be come friends to over come the villains of both worlds 😁
I really wish the people who dislike something would at least leave a reason, or constructive criticism when they do. It doesn't surprise me that they don't however, because it's a shortcut to getting flamed, and otherwise disliked without much consideration for their reasons... But I still would like to know what those who disliked this were thinking. :/
I think YT should get rid of the dislike button and go with what Facebook do, if you really feel the desire to be negative you have to type something out.
One day, when all the people of this Earth stand together in fellowship and look out at to the universe with hope, wonder and an adventurous spirit THIS will carry us forward.
Alright! It's the creations like this that makes me smile, for it reminds me that we all are part if something great. Bronies will live on for a very long time, growing to numbers that are unimaginable. Thank you, Evening, for reminding me of being part of something wonderful with your great music. It is truly a part of something inspiring.
This quite the masterpiece! You have a beautiful way of writing music Evening Star. You have honestly brought a new meaning to my opinion on orchestral music. Keep up your fascinating work!
C'mon everypony:) Marching proud:) All together now, no one left behind! Magnificant music, it could be Equestrian anthem. You are great composer Evening Star, i like you very much!
This music would fit right in in Civilization V. In fact, in the Equestria Mod, it would be perfect as Celestia's Peace theme. Now we just need a War Theme, and proper 3D models for the diplomacy screen (as opposed to the simple flat image we have now). Oh, and a William Morgan Sheppard soundalike for the opening narration.
I don't know if you're still around, but there's a Hearts of Iron IV mod that might interest you. It's called Equestria at War, and has the best writting team of the whole community.
Going around listening to all the old Brony music I haven't heard in years. Bumped into this one and remember the whole Lunar Republic and Solar Empire event (sorry if incorrect faction names, was never a part of this sub-fandom). Makes me nostalgic revisiting all of these works and remember while society thought us strange, we persevered. The world could use some love and tolerance in these strange and dark times.
Amazing! Simply inspiring. I wish I'd been able to witness the premiere. But I had college work I had to do. :( oh well, at least I have the first three seasons to watch in the meantime. :) Not to mention beautiful music to grace my Thanksgiving. Actually, you were one of the things I was thankful for this Thanksgiving. You and your music, the wonderful show that you introduced me to and also the inspiration to take musical courses! I have always enjoyed music and I really want to learn how to play it well, and even make my own! I thankful for a good many things, for the love and trust that we share, for my supportive family, and, most importantly, for the wonder that is music. I hope you fare well this winter Marcus, I wish nothing but the best for you. And I wish everypony else a fantastic holiday season as well. (Silence)... God I can't resist! Brohoof! /) from Michigan!
Another fantastic track! I especially enjoyed the crescendo around minute 4. Hopefully you'll take a trip across the pond to the US at some point. I'd like to shake your hand and thank you for producing such wonderful music. A+ work.
Believe it or not but this was a ritual song for the openings to any party ever held with my friends. I being former army and my best friend at the time being navy we'd literally salute as the song played standing at full attention. Even our non brony friends would as they were at the same base as my friend. Amazing times never to be forgotten
I will say what I say to your beautiful music Evening Star, amazingly wonderful. If your songs were books, I could imagine things beyond normal human comprehension. I can tell you take time in creating your songs note by note. I consider it an honor listening to your music. / ) 100/10
You and KingSparta or as he likes to call himself, Delta Brony, should be a part of the Twenty Ten. So far there are four members in the group some you may recognize. They are Mic the Microphone, IBeingDaLulz, Glaze or WoodenToaster, and The Living Tombstone. You and KingSparta would definite be good members within their ranks :D
I think, some of those haters are just jealous. Because they know, that we allways be happier then them. And hopefully, one day, when we are acceptet, the world will stand as one. Otherwise, I will trun to my OC and jump to germaneigh XD
Another beautiful song, I love all of them. You continue making astounding music, they inspire many of us and I am sure that they will continue to do so. Thanks to them I created some of my best poems. Thank you for all of the songs you had made.
I have no idea why but I feel somewhat patriotic for Equestria, like I should thank our royal guard for keeping this great nation safe. Thank you for this wonderful masterpiece
You make the BEST anthems! I remember stumbling onto your remix of At The Gala a while back and being hooked from there... The pieces you produce feel like they could have been produced in Equestria!
At times ....fight is the way to peace . ...asto ma sadgamay ...tamso ma jyotirgamay...sanskrit shlok ..light is attained through darkness, truth through falsehood ....
Jesus Christ, stop being so damn awesome, Evening! You have really come up from where you once were. Like, the amount of improvement is awe inspiring. If you don't become a professional (or aren't already) and make a shit load of money, I will be disappointed. Keep on being amazing, and I look forward to the next song you come out with.
This is one of your best yet! you continue to make wonderful awe inspiring music for us to listen to, each piece of music is simply amazing and unique.
Quite the stunning piece. I love your anthems (albeit this is the second you've made, but they are still quite remarkable). Doesn't even need lyrics, but still a better anthem then some countries. Beats "To Anacreon in Heaven" if you ask me.
I could see you becoming a producer of music for movies, but not quite something I would listen to everyday. The reason being because I can't see lyrics being added to this kind of music. It's more for movies with dramatic scenes and stuff like that. It's good work though, so keep it up.

Technically it's a federal constitutional dirarchy because there are two monarchy figures ruling over Equestria. 😅😅😅😅😅😅

3:14 on = Goosebumps!
That section reminds me a little of the theme from Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron. Is it just me?
It did take music to learn HOI grind. Good music for the HOI grind very fitting.
Love the drums makes for a strong prominent feeling almost feel like galloping to canterlot to join the legion
Almost 5 years since this was made, and it still is one of the most inspirational pieces I have ever heard so far. It just shows how great your music is, because being able to give the greatest goosebumps for that long is straight up legendary!
Almost 10 years dude)
Listening this, I imagine, how my country will unite after war...
Thank you Bearers of Harmony. You have rescued the north, united the east and west and tamed the south. Now, let us strive for a better tomorrow, as a united land. As Equestria.
At first it sounded like a pretty "neat" song.
It turned hardcore full epic at approx 3:14
Splendid job.
Another awesome song hats off to the handsome Marcus Warner who creates great inspiring music.
In 2017 your music still awesome!
Take me back
Why. It still awesome in 2024 =)@@daisyheart5385
By the strength of the earth
Through the force of wind

Thank you for making this, for capturing the essence of their kinship as sisters and the reuniting of Equestria as it was. Beautiful job.
I'm like Shining Armor in a wedding when listening to this theme
Used this song for a slideshow for an Eagle Scout Ceremony. Great Work!
As a fellow Eagle Scout, I salute you and your taste in music.
Seconded! Another fellow Eagle (back when you actually earned it) who is proud to be in your aviary.
Sounds like we must honor our heroes. Not one of each side but as a union.
Under the warm embrace of day, and the sublime glory of night. For our princesses and country, long live sacred Equestria.
Best theme to play once you concluded a ghastly war against a terrible foe or when you achieve unification.
A great welcome home piece for the elements of harmony and the equestrian military fighting for their freedom
It's official, MLP takes place in Yugoslavia.

Not sure if yt would want to change a system its had for years, though. :P
My 1st time ever hearing this!. It's beautiful. Band of brothers style music. If you get my drift.

i dont think it would be an understatement to say that everyone is wondering this...
i have noticed.
the instruments are synthesised or sampled ... and for the daw itself i imagine he uses something like fruity loops , cubase or ableton
Why not just simply ask him directly by sending him a private message?
