The Tangle of Chionthar, 1492
In the dense, magical periphery of the Wood of Sharp Teeth near Baldur's Gate, the reach of the Flaming Fist is thin. Settlers and outcasts struggle against encroaching fey-corrupted flora and the economic squeeze of city-state tariffs while surviving on the edge of the Coast Way.
The Waking City, 2026
Modern New York is a city where magic is real, rare, difficult, valuable, and quietly integrated into society. Magic has no single universal system. It responds to disciplined ways of interpreting reality: ritual, science, law, art, faith, technology, crime, or business. As the city reaches critical symbolic density, the line between a legal contract and a binding ritual has dissolved, and the pressure of eight million competing ambitions is causing the mundane world to buckle.
The Fourth Son of, 1820
Born as the fourth son of a stable noble house, you spent your life preparing for the entrance exams of the prestigious Royal Academy. On the morning of the trials, you wake up in the body of Prince Valerius, the King's own Fourth Son. While the Prince is traditionally far above you, this specific Prince is known for scandal, debt, and failing his duties. You must navigate the rigid court protocol, fend off ambitious siblings who see you as a weak link, and use your noble-born work ethic to survive the lethal politics of the crown while everyone watches for your next mistake.
Accordia, 1007 ALB
In this universe, the species known as humans does not exist, has never existed in the past, does not exist in the present. This world is not Earth; the planet is called Accordia and consists of three major continents, each inhabited exclusively by magical races native to the Equestria at War and My Little Pony setting in 1007 ALB, which is set roughly around the time before the MLP Season 6 finale or the My Little Pony: The Movie (2017) era, possessing their own biology, cultures, histories, and political systems that fully replace any human analogues. The technological development of this world corresponds to the level of the 1920s–1930s, but all technologies, institutions, ideologies, and cultural phenomena are adapted to the magical nature of Accordia’s races and have no direct or indirect connection to human history.
Continent Equus - The Western continent, featuring nations such as Equestria, Olenia and the Changelings and others. The continent is well-developed in terms of technology.
Griffonia Continent - The Eastern Continent, with nations such as the Griffonian Empire, Wingbardy, Aquileia As well as the countries of the River Federation and others. The continent is well-developed in terms of technology.
Continent Zebrica - the continent to the south, Countries located on the continent include Hippogriffia, Chiropterra, the Realm of Kiria, and others. This continent is technologically less developed than the others. It is an analogy of Africa and Asia. The continent is home to various underdeveloped and primitive tribes, as well as well-developed nations.
The world of Accordia is a complex landscape of shifting alliances, industrial advancement, and ancient magic. Below is a summary of the key nations, races, and historical turning points.
I. Major Nations & Political Entities
Equestria: An ancient land of ponykind ruled by the Alicorn sisters, Celestia and Luna. It operates on the principles of Harmony but has faced internal stagnation and external threats.
The Crystal Empire: A northern kingdom of Crystal Ponies powered by the Crystal Heart. It was once enslaved by the tyrant Sombra and vanished for a thousand years before being restored under Princess Cadance.
The Changeling Queendom: Populated by insectoid shapeshifters who feed on love. Under Queen Chrysalis, the hives unified and launched a massive invasion of Equestria in 1002 ALB, which was narrowly repelled at Canterlot.
Stalliongrad: A breakaway communist state in the Severyana region. It was formed after a 991 ALB famine and a subsequent violent crackdown by the Equestrian Guard led to a successful revolution.
Nova Griffonia: Originally a colony of the Griffonian Empire settled by griffons, it became independent after the Empire's collapse in 978 ALB. It struggles with a weak industrial base and political instability.
Other Notable Lands:
Olenia: A kingdom of deer known for electrical manufacturing.
Yakyakistan: Home to the fierce and isolationist Yaks.
Pingland: A stable monarchy of Penguins in the frozen north.
The Polar Bear Communities: A collection of clans currently being modernized by Paw Wellington.

Alicorns: Rare, long-lived leaders who possess the traits of all three primary pony races.

The Return of Harmony (1000 ALB): Nightmare Moon returned but was defeated and redeemed by Twilight Sparkle and her friends, the Avatars of Harmony.
The Great Changeling Invasion (1002 ALB): A major turning point that forced a stagnant Equestria to begin reconsidering its military preparedness.
Trench Crusade's, 1914
In a 1914 where the Great War is a sanctified trench crusade, you begin as an ordinary citizen in a crumbling urban tenement. From the smoke-clogged European capitals, you can rise from a simple laborer or farmer to become an inventor of war-engines or a titan of industry. Amidst the clatter of armored trains and the chanting of militarized monks, your ability to build factories, supply the front, or take up the sword allows you to seize the gears of fate and dramatically redirect the course of the 20th century.
