Well technically alicorns are the most powerful ones by magic means and alicorns are coronated like old monarchs difference is that alicorns are a beings made by powerful magic and by powerful person that person mostly is trained by alicorn or is one or is born a royalty but in the sistem there is another thing alicorns are immortal if they don’t retire they could rule forever ♾ so democraty might make it even worse people may (well creatures) elect someone he can become power hungry and become a true dictator
And monarchy is different from dictatorship so twilight is not an dictator and as long as people are happy having a monarchy is not bad if something French aham I meant equestrian revolution
 head chopping and princess popping
So if people want they can’t do what they want they have some immoral powerful ponies on they’re side if something happens
And they are called princess of equestria but it mostly is of pony part of equestria others have they’re leaders so it’s still isn’t that of into serious problem and sometimes democracy ruins country
Like my country because of democracy we have oligarchs and lets say dictators so it is not good democracy not always good thing
Like when my country had monarchs we lived better well som were not good at defending the country but even presidents are not perfect
..and I won’t continue any further because you get the point..(and also nobody is going to read this)


“Sawtooth waves definitely an earth pony”🤣🤣🤣


i know i'm late, but hear me out. equestria is made up of all kind of kingdoms (dragonlands, yakyakistan etc..) the alicorns have NO say in what the LEADERS of their tribes do. so technically, there are dragon, yak or changling (for instance) leaders. <br>mkay, you have a point by saying that maybe dragons lead the entirety of equestria, but it makes no sense to me that they will rule over pony's while leaders in the dragonlands don't rule in other places, if u know what i mean..?

The only reason twilight became a princess was because princess celestia and Princess Luna retired, they saw that twilight and her friends mostly did the work (aka defeating magical villains) and in all the times twilight did those, the two sisters helped her gain recognition. Maybe being a princess isn't about being an alicorn, or any type of pony race there is out there. But someone who can protect and maintain a kingdom the right way, discord was just as powerful as twilight alone, but the two sisters chose twilight probably because they know that not only is twilight and her friends powerful together and enough to protect a kingdom but also because she isn't corrupt, and they trust her to not become a dictator. You could just about see how much she has done with the magic of friendship I suppose


First of all only alicorns posses the magic to raise the sun and moon and the other creatures have their own kingdoms and choosing just anyone without them proving their worth could end disastrously


I saw the start of the episode and thought:
Thwilight would NEVER speak like that 😂
But you're right, she may is a dicator,  but a good one.
Of course, evil ponys like Cozy Glow can become alicorns, too.
But as long magic of friendship leads, that won't happen.
But maybe in another My little Pony universe they should vote more 😬....
But it's really unfair, that other types like griffens can't be leader of equestria.
My question:
Where are all other types gone in "My little Pony a new Generation"?
Is it another universe?
In the new chapter, we saw Twilight and toys of the mane six.
But like in the human world, it gives in every universe a Twilight, too.
Maybe the new generation world is like the originally timeline, but at one point everything changed 🤔
But, what....?
We only know to different storys from a strange  unicorn sleepover.
And we all know....
Izzy is like Pinkie Pie 🤣
And we know Opaline, the alicorn.
How did she became an alicorn?
So many questions


I never did like Twilight becoming a princess just because she got wings...

@Cupcake It's not that every Alicorn has to be a Princess, it's that <b>only</b> princesses can be alicorns. At least, that's what it looks like from my casual perspective.

@Cupcake It's not that every Alicorn has to be a Princess, it's that *only* princesses can be alicorns. At least, that's what it looks like from my casual perspective.

I remember that Rarity said Twilight looks like a princess, and Celestia said: It's because she is a princess.

@Cupcake I think she had to care about her role as a princess before fighting with mane 6 🤔<br>Or maybe she was like: "Nah, I don't care the princess of what I will be. DESTROY MANE 6, ENSLAVE ALL PONIES AND TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!!!!!"

@Candy Meow Well Cozy was only a  temporary Alicorn. Do idk if she counts 🤷

Well she didn’t just earn wings, she made new magic and in return was given earth pony and Pegasus genes combined with her unicorn ones made her an alicorn. She earned being a princess, and Celestia didn’t make her one the magic inside her did

@Ruby Rosepetal I keep on forgetting that she exists.

@Neri Yes, but all the Alis in the show are Princesses.

@Cupcake You got that wrong! They dont. If you're an alicorn doesnt mean you're a princess. Twilight became an alicorn and a princess because she proved new magic. Cadance reverted a spell as a pegasi. And Flurry Heart is a princess because her parents are a princess and a prince.

Ikr. Why does ever Alicorn have to be princesses?


I haven’t even watch the video I already feel like my life is a lie


Actually, If power can only be passed on, then if somebody evil tried to rule then they could just Deny thier rule, because nobody Picked them. and if theres the case of mind control, then cant they just mind control them to vote for them Anyway?


Me:Twilight a dictator

Also me:Reminds me of Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler


All the other creatures have their own rulers, they aren't all ruled by Twilight, the other creatures would probably have some issues with that. xD

Yeah, if the other creatures really have a problem with equestrian rulership then they can go back to their homelands.


Ok sure, i stopped watching the show a loooong time ago, but like.     <i>WHEN THE HELL DID HER LIMBS GROW SO LONG?!</i>

Sawtooth this is trueley my favorite video+even more


It would fail, A main part of equestrian leadership is power, to defend.<br>If they don’t have power they won’t be able to stay in charge, a non benevolent leader would take over.

Also if you were turned royalty and needed to take place would  that be more like the decoration of independence?


Dragons and Changelings already have their rulers as does the Crystal Empire

@Kokiden they still have their own Separate Ruler trough so they really seem to be a separate Kingdom all together..as in..The Crystal Empire?

pretty sure the crystal empire is just a region of equestria.  like a colony.  not its own separate thing


Clearly Sawtooth is not a fan of Twilight.

At least I think

Clearly Sawtooth is not a fan of Twilight.

At least I *think*


For the princess of "Friendship" she never really was that friendly when she enters her "mode" She may or may not fall into the dictator role in time.

@aycc-nbh72 That's a really good question. Maybe something similar to the French and Indian war style "american revolution"

So what happens when Twilight becomes corrupted and Götterdämmerung takes over? Would there be an American-style or Bolshevik-style revolution?


Dictator - a ruler with total power over a country, typically one who has obtained control by force.
1:45 King Sombra's a DICTATOR, Twilight's not, Twilight was appointed rulership by Princess Celestia she didn't take it by force unlike Sombra did
1:53 though she's not old enough to rule don't forget Flurry Heart shes also an Alicorn
!:59 Cozy Glow only became an Alicorn because she used powers that would change her form like, Lord Tirek, and Queen Chrysalis


What is right for one isn't always right for another.


Why do you need a voting system? Just because the population changed doesn't mean it's not pony land. Equestria still belong to ponies, kind of like how dragons, hippogriff, etc have their founded their own land.


Maybe to be an alicorn it need powerful magic


The only reason that absolute rule isnt a problem is the benevolence of the rulers, if they changed their tune they would soon be deposed


Actually ponies ruling makes sense they brought harmony to all those species


Alicorns have the most power, cozy glow stole the power to become an alicorn, while luna corrupted because of the tyrant so it's not their fault, luna and Celestia have the power of the sun and the moon while twilight has the most power, how? she is the one who can keep the friendship between luna and Celestia so they don't corrupt, princess cadence is there to put their love for each other in balance. each princess has a role and no one can disagree with their destiny.


Petition for discord to be the ruler.<br>Edit:Only If fluttershy ruled with him!

Petition for discord to be the ruler.
Edit:Only If fluttershy ruled with him!

Well twilight and her friends rule equestria so fluttershy counts

Discord would probably actually be able to stop wars with his mind games, but at the same time... I don't think he is very responsible

yes! he is most definitely the most responsible ruler everyone knows that! he is actually incredibly smart! who needs responsibility!

Only if it’s Fluttershy too! They would be absolutely perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah! He’s reformed... mostly. Also, he has experience “ruling” Equestria. He didn’t rule well, but... um... he’s mostly reformed now. The most recent potentially disastrous event he caused had good intentions.


There is such a thing as smart babies as a flurry heart


But Equestria is home for the ponies, other places have other rulers. (Equestria is basically America)

Sure some non-ponies live there, but it makes sense for a pony to rule. (Just like it makes sense for our presidents in America to be American)


a vote for me is a vote for a continuation of the monarchy but one with more say from the people, no voting for the ruler but now the ruler must focus on the concerns of the people and the protection of the land over their own desires.


Honestly this seems like something that Twilight would approve of. if she was seen as falling down on the job,<br>she'd probably be just as happy to take a behind the scenes role overseeing all the paper work and letting a new face handle diplomacy and day to day issues,

The one I'm wondering where the heck did Celesitia and Luna go.
they're just like okay we gave you  6 seasons and a pair of wings
now fly my pretty fly
while we dissapear for the entire epilouge...


I don't think Twilight is a dictator, dictators are people who acquired power by force or in an emergency. Twilight was granted power by the last monarchs and she'd only really be seen as a dictator if she forcefully stole the crown from Luna and Celestia. I think that what we're witnessing the first steps of their government stepping out of a monarchy and evolving into a more fair system. It may take a bit of time to get there but it's on the right track.

Honestly I always thought that Twilight turned their system of government into something like Great Britain. Where there's a royal family and they have power but most of the major laws and choices are given to parliament. Twilights version of Parliament was given to her friends due to them being chosen by the elements of harmony which they meet up to discuss every year to hear the voices of the 3 pony tribes through The Council of Friendship.
BUT I do agree that there needs to be representatives from each race outside of just ponies. It would be awesome to see each nation have a rep so that the different species can have a voice. I also think that having personal friends in The Council of Friendship is just biased and that Twilight needs to expand it through public vote to fully encompass the will of her nation.
Though overall I think she's on the right track and calling her a dictator isn't fair to the progress she's made.


1:17 they say in the last problem that discord is on the counsel of friendship, so hey give him chance as leader 3:04


<b>DEMOCRACY? NAAAH. OBEY YOUR FRIENDSHIP OVERLORDS!</b>

*DEMOCRACY? NAAAH. OBEY YOUR FRIENDSHIP OVERLORDS!*


I thought alicorns are put in place of leadership because of their alicorn magic, which, from what I understand, is some of the most powerful magic that exists. I fear that even if there is a vote for leaders and one of the runner ups was an alicorn, if they don't get picked they could start an all out revolution and possibly win with how powerful they are. But this is my own theory. Maybe since alicorn play such a big role on how life is like in Equestria, it makes sense for them to stay as leaders. They rely on Twilight or raise and lower the moon, as well as protect them from danger. If she become tyrannical, the other elements and princesses can reform her, as some of your other videos have shown that reforming anyone can be possible.

Also, it's not like only alicorns can rule over people, there are dragon rulers, yack rulers, and hippogriff rulers as well, just not to the large length that the alicorns do. So it's not like there isn't any representation of other species in positions of power, just in places with more conflict and higher populations tend to have alicorn magic to protect them


Now that I think,about it saw- *laughs* sawtooth waves sounds- *laughs* sounds allot like a real mlp aka my little pony name 😂

Now that I think,about it saw- **laughs** sawtooth waves sounds- **laughs** sounds allot like a real mlp aka my little pony name 😂


you know that ponies only become alicorns because other ponies love them right


Sawtooth Waves: "alicorns don't represent the population anymore."
Me: May I present my OC. The half-dragon, half yack, half hippogriff, half changing, half alicorn, half sea monster, Half anthro cat, half anthro bird, half anthro everything else in south equestrian and even half wyvern because they are canon too if scootaloo is to be believed.
He can be our leader just look at all those halves, that is 500% leadership material right there.

rolay 7 twilight sparkles is a better leader than your oc

Twilight sparkle The princess of friendship

@Bio Livbanon <br>And that is why he is 500% leadership material.

@Bio Livbanon
And that is why he is 500% leadership material.

If it's that many mixes then it is not a matter of "halves" anymore... 🤣

thats almost 3 times the representation all in a package for the price of ONE!  call 555-lead to vote for A package that gets you MORE representation for LESS!

Sounds like Discords older or younger brother.


She could just become a figure head like the royal family of england.


If there’s a princess

Then where’s the queen


Why the hell am I watching a video discussing the best governmental system for a fictional world of a children’s show? I’m a college student with a paper due tomorrow.


Um, Flurry Heart is a LITERAL baby! How do you except her to be competent or in control of anything?!


My brain “oh it’s Sabertooth!”

Me “I...... did you just put together Sawtooth Waves and Saberspark?”


If a main person is elected to be on the throne its still a 50/50 chance they may be evil or turn evil 🤔 but if only alicons can be royals then that lessens the chance in a sence. As we saw some ponys stole magic to be an alicon making it corrupted magic making then unfit to rule and they were dealt with but ponys who proved them selves worthy were fit to do so. In the case with the first true alicon she may or will be different depending on how things progressed in her life


And this is why I chose Celestia, Luna and Cadence over Twilight.


What if everpony was an alicorn?<br>How would they chose a leader if they never came up with voting?

What if everpony was an alicorn?
How would they chose a leader if they never came up with voting?

Eh... They would choose... the tallest one?

Hey, but even if everypony would be alicorns, that doesn't mean that everypony would be princesses/princes, right?

Yeah but that's the point. Not everypony can be an alicorn


all hail king sawtooth. The changeling heir.


Technically alicorns rule Equiatria cause they can protect it.......... you get the point

@aycc-nbh72 I was referring to the Holy Roman Emperor who would be elected by nobles from across the empire.

But isn’t the Pope chosen by a tight-knit electorate?

They didnt vote trough..it was more of a chess play on the power play between the Pope and the King..so you had 2 options either the King or The Pope..religion or Imperialism..not really open choices for votes
Equestria princeses seem to be BOTH so they escape the faults of the Holy empire as the Citizens believe Alicorns to be Gods thus the ultimate Authority and Wisdom they should respect..
In another words..Equestria is a holy Roman empire ..THAT ACTUALLY WORKS


i honestly think people should stop thinking too much and just watch the damn show!


No wonder so many villains are in that show… . Twilight’s as much as awful as the villains too XD

Edit: yes Equestria should be a democracy. That’s all :D


Twilight is a monarch in a country with absolute monarchy and elective(appointment) succession. She is not a dictator.


Personally I see more problems in our current democratic system than I do in the monarchical system that the ponies have.

Not really if a bad leader ever came to power they'd would rules for many years inlets there were a revolution

one of those "you should leave things the way they are" moments. any human influence is going to mess things up.


Equestria should have Democracy <br>Idk why it sounds fair enough

Equestria should have Democracy
Idk why it sounds fair enough


If you ask me, the very existence of the concept of "the state" makes democracy inevitable. However, nothing in the world is ever unopposed, meaning anarchism will arise to oppose the state, and authoritarian regimes will rise up and remove weak democratic systems in times of trouble. The only way to ensure a stable government is to establish strong democracy, creating a strong and stable government while preserving citizen's liberties and human rights.


Can someone plz tell me how twilight got so tall I’m not that far into the series yet but I have to know


"Now Equestria is ruled by alicorns, which we all know can never go corrupt."
Shows nightmare moon
Me: Dies laughing

"Now Equestria is ruled by alicorns, which we all know can never go corrupt."

Hmmm...you said “represent <b>equestria</b> “ , but it is mentioned that all the other creatures live beyond equestria?

Hmmm...you said “represent *equestria* “ , but it is mentioned that all the other creatures live beyond equestria?


I don't want to say this but you do realize that there's a pretty large chance that they would just  vote for someone random right like it doesn't even matter the amount of corruption that can easily get into a situation with like 50 different races it's easy so corrupt that liked any Pony could just say we need an Alicorn leader because we've always had an Alicorn leader Everyone We Believe even though that's not true and then another Alicorn elected whether they should be elected or not turn to actual American democracy for example of this.Just a reminder I am not saying anything bad about the political system I'm just pointing out the flaws that you can't deny it exists.


Is this too bad we're never going to see a continuation series or spin-off series where is Twilight Sparkle is Queen.


But what if it’s like <br>Each kind of creature has a different place to rule, it’s not like a pony can go over to the dragon kingdom and rule it just because they live there. Or in other words if French people lived in America it doesn’t mean that they can contest in elections and rule. I’m pretty sure the alicorns don’t have any control over the different species that live outside of equestria.

.....Still, Sawtooth, its a monarchy. They choose who takes over. And indeed, all of the creatures are lucky that it is a benevolent dictatorship.


I wonder, if ponies had the ability to vote for the next princess, would we still have the same alicorn princess we have now?


I thought they actually DID have a sort of United Nations thing where the rulers of the old kingdoms still keep their titles and stuff~

Not even that much.Celestia is idiot and Luna has big brain problems


Not everyone is qualified to do the jobs the alicorns do. I doubt a dragon or griffin could raise the sun or the moon, the current bearers of the elements are with Twilight and her friends and I really don't see anyone actually wanting to rule the crystal empire with sombra always lurking around. Maybe something closer to what Britain has. It has a royal family and a parliament. In truth, I have no idea what the royal family does but I also don't know what Celestia and Luna do outside of raising the sun and the moon. You sort of see them head into meetings but it's not really clear their role in them.


this kinda has a connection with the new generation 🤔


0:58 Twilight banishing Sawtooth cuz he doesn’t shut up

What happened to free speech?? Freedom of press????


Ok but I'd like to see how Discord would rule being "reformed" and all


I love that this video started as Anarchist vs Authoritarian. But this wouldn’t actually make Twilight a dictator. I like to believe that Equestria is more ordered to allow a magically decided meritocracy, but with Gen 5 coming… featuring it’s segregated society… I wouldn’t be surprised if maybe there was a dictator.


Well twilight has many friends wich if she  was coropted they would stop her really fast also she and her friends where the ones who introduced other types of animals like griffin and they made them nice but it was kinda almost only twilight

well it makes sense that theres a alicorn ruling over equestria. there are different kingdoms in mlp that have rulers that are of that species, and yea there are different species that either live in or visit equestria but its not like the princesses try to overthrow the dragon queen and take it over.


I'd rather have sawtooth as Equestria's ruler than Twilight.


I mean a changeling could represent all of equestria


I don’t think that a democracy will help equestria, considering how much responsibility falls into being its’ leader. Also since a villain could easily hypnotize majority of the citizens into voting them as the leader. There is a reason that it’s a monarchy, and it’s because the leader has to be trained and seemingly right for the throne. Sunset shimmer would’ve been a great candidate, and if it were a democracy I personally think they would vote her, but we all know where that could go so I think Equestria should continue to stay a democracy. (Bruh this is way better than my politics essay for English)


Well, u also got to keep in mind that Equestria wasn’t ever meant to be ruled in a simularity to Presents, but like Kings and Queens.

It would just defeat the whole vision the creators had for their world.


I think this was a bit of a weak arguement because we don't see ponies ruling the dragons, lol.


I'LL VOTE!!!! U DA BEST!!! Btw did anyone else see the hoof boop Gallas? Omg i loved it! I couldn't stop laughing🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣


Technically (reformed) Changelings would be the only ones that cud actually represent every living being


Equestria should stay a monarchy. its bad enough there aren't very many monarchies left IRL, there is no reason to remove monarchies from fiction to, especially when the ruler is benevolent.


Amazing video. Here's my thought on the whole deal.
It's been proven in history that  monarchs/dictators are the most efficient form of government. The reason we really don't see them is because corruption, as you said. But Twilight is immortal for all we know, so she could rule forever, and she has good intentions. In this case, a good monarch is better than any democracy.

My concern would be the phrase, "You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain." Would Twilight get tired of her position? Maybe lose her way? Celestia got tired of ruling after a relatively short time (2-3 thousand years isn't long from the point of an immortal alicorn).  Maybe after a few thousand years, Twilight will seek more power. Or more control. That's where things get scary.

@GuyInGrey Did Sawtooth Waves not watch the Star Wars Prequels? Their whole thing was how a democracy can turn into a dictatorship.

She does have check and balences and Spike who can live just as long.

That's all true, but you always have to ask the "what if".

Also, democracy is not immune to corruption as this video implies. Bribery and lying become a lot more prevalent in those cases, as we see in the world today.

Ir she'll go do what celestia did before her and start grooming a heir to the throne

Chances are she'll follow in her mentor's footsteps and abdicate for somebody else. Leadership gets ages presidents by eight years, immortal or not you'll get fatigued.

GuyInGrey or she could pass the rule onto Luster dawn


But the different species still have their own kingdoms and leaders it's just that now they're closer together and have like a united nation system.


Sawtooth for president! I am casting my vote for him! Sawtooth for Ruler of Equestria 2025! :D


What if A villain Competed and forced everypony to for that person?


I guess alicorns are in the lead cus they have more magic than all of the creatures that live in the modern wolrd now so if something were to happend and if equestria was attacked alicorns would be there to protect everyone bc of their strong power


technically twilight WAS voted in a majority when she was at canterlot high and that twilight and princess twilight are the same. if all citizens were from the human world it might be fair? tbh now im wondering who the supreme ruler in the human world is


she puts her friends into powerful government positions.


Celestia and luna gave twilight the crown and the whole series was just a trial for twilight... BUT WHAT IF CELESTIA DID EVERY DISASTOR TO TEST TWILIGHT?!?!?! <b>GASP</b>

Celestia and luna gave twilight the crown and the whole series was just a trial for twilight... BUT WHAT IF CELESTIA DID EVERY DISASTOR TO TEST TWILIGHT?!?!?! *GASP*


I think alicorns would still rule because there are the dragon lands we’re all dragons are native to like someone who lives in Ireland can move to England but the queen would still be from the English royal blood


I think it's better if the ponies vote for their rulers so they can choose who is helping and understanding them


i think the reason why is because they have wings they can use to travel faster than earth ponies and than some unicorns (not all), and also bc the magic they posses is most times stronger, so why have a pegasus or earth pony as a ruler IF they NEED magic so their kingdom is safer?, why should a unicorn or earth pony rule if they NEED wings in case of emergencies?, also, just imagine for example a buffalo ruling, ik this sounds like excluding but to be fair, they don't have enough to protect equestria, that's why alicorns are more suitable for the job.


You know you don’t have to vote bc the leaders of all the different creatures could form a consol


Thing is, just cause they moved into a country formed by ponies and has a majority pony population.
This is basically saying "oh there are a minority of white people living in this nation of black people, you should give up your kingship and let make a republic where white people have a chance to rule everything.
Do you know how stupid that sounds? like sure there is nothing wrong with having a different race as a "president" but this isn't a republic, this is a king/Queendom.

and being a king or Queen doesn't make you a dictator, i mean, who said the king or queen can't put out a poll?
Besides, it's not like these republics are any better, 1 vote, maybe 2 is all you get from republics.. and that first vote is only to decide who is to lead the nation. you don't have a say in what they're doing after that... Like they culd say that they'll do one thing and then do a completely different after they've been chosen... And what can the people do about that? nada. why? cause the government has the power.


if now they need to vote...then whats the princess for- arent they for protecting equestria, if they aren't the rulers than who will protect them at all cost


Ok but she is princess of friendship and she would still make sure every creatures will have to be happy and listened to he or she that is a creatures


Eqeastira should become a democracy

Or communist state i don't know


But that’s the thing each kingdom has their own separate ruler so you’re saying that it’s only ponies fault


The problem with a system like this in Equestria is the highly emotional and often unstable nature of the beings that reside there.  As was shown in the season 9 finale, it doesn't take much to push them apart, and even if they came together stronger in the end, it'll only take so long before division is possible again.

As most of Equestria's threats are immortal, it's leadership must be as well.  It is true that they could organize a group dedicated to protecting Equestria like The Pillars, or The Mane Six, but only an immortal ruler is truly in position to combat the threats properly.  If a group like the pillars was formed, eventually the gears of bureaucracy would prove to be an obstacle, and the elected leader could very well be a Cozy Glow.

An immortal leader with absolute authority is capable of making decisions immediately without any politics in the way, and they can inform the defenders of Equestria of the threat's nature if they have encountered it before, if they are not themselves the defender.  Equestria still has ordinary creatures in positions of power, and the princesses don't have authority over everything, the EEA being notable here.

People like to joke about Celestia not doing anything, but without her, Equestria would have fallen many times over.  You mention how alicorns can become corrupted, but the same is true of any leader who may be elected, and if someone like Cozy Glow were to be elected, Equestria would be in serious trouble, especially seeing as there wouldn't be any legal way to get them out of office without compelling evidence.

The diarchy system of Equestria should be maintained, two immortals should always be able to keep each other in check, and be able to respond to threats without any red tape.  Equestria should be mostly run by the elected representatives like Mayor Mare and Chancellor Neighsay, but when push comes to shove, democracy makes even the simplest decision complicated, and that wasted time could lead to Equestria's undoing.

I do agree that the leadership does not necessarily need to be alicorns, just immortals who stay in power.  Twilight has taken the place of Celestia, and I feel that Spike has taken the place of Luna, and as unlikely as either one becoming corrupt is, the other will likely be able to talk them down.

Basically, democracy makes things too complicated in a world of immortal villains and easily broken alliances, and there needs to be a constant, an immortal leader who can see the signs and remember the past clearly, who can make decisions without being held back.

Or, that's how I see it, feel free to disagree, a variety of opinions is what makes conversations interesting.  Imagine how boring it would be if everyone always agreed.


So you were saying that we need to get rid of queen Elizabeth just because now, not only british live there. And you want the indigenous people to give up on their land that they had been sacrifice their life with and took care of it for hundreds of years just for others that wanted to live there just because they wanted to.?


You have a good point, but the thing is a voting system can be corrupt too. When it comes to voting, there is going to be arguing. And if there is voting for something extremely serious like the ruler of Equestria, then arguing is probably gonna be a HUGE problem. Especially when windigos exist in their universe, the ponies will probably be too busy fighting over who gets to rule Equestria rather than their own safety. And besides it’s not like there are any ponies who’ll take advantage of the votes and manipulate other ponies to vote for them. The whole reason Alicorns are rulers is because they are a representation for royalty. If a pegasi, earth pony, or unicorn rule over Equestria then equestria’s probably going to fail somehow. Even though Equestria has magic, they still need a ruler who doesn’t let power get into their head 🤷🏽♂, sure, Luna was very depressed whenever she had no one to praise her for raising the moon, but that was when she was a filly, and fillies love the love and affection. Also, wouldn’t that mean you’d have to learn how to raise the sun and moon when you’re the ruler of Equestria? Pegasi and earth ponies can’t raise the sun at all. I’m pretty sure that Alicorns are the rulers because theyre powerful enough to control the sun and moon. What happens if chrysalis attacks? How will a Pegasi or an earth pony defend their ponies? Unicorn’s can’t probably defend theirselves either because, well if a unicorn who’s a weakling gets voted into ruler then Equestria is doomed to fall. The whole thing is, these ponies would have 0 clue who they’re voting in. Which is why Alicorns are rulers. Alicorns are a mix of earth, Pegasi, and unicorn ponies. They are powerful enough to defend their subjects when something goes wrong (if you don’t count chrysalis destroying Celestia). It’s not like Alicorns are common, they’re extremely rare, which is why it would take you ages to prove that you would be a great alicorn leader. Twilight became an alicorn because she was able to prove that she has qualities of becoming a princess. The problem is, is that if we had a voting system to vote who can be the new princess/prince, wouldn’t that mean everything would go imbalance? I think that alicorns are rulers because they represent balance, because they are a mix of all 3 pony species. Ponies like cozy glow can count as alicorns because they are balanced, in chaos. I mean, cozy glow is FILLED with chaos, but that doesn’t mean evil people can become alicorns, Cozy glow only became an alicorn because of the bell, and if you noticed when she used her horn it was red. So that would mean she is a true alicorn, but not a good alicorn. And about flurry heart, lets be real, she only exists for marketing 🤷🏽♂. And an alicorn being born?? It kinda throws a LOT of stuff out the window doesn’t it? Does that mean that she was born an alicorn because of cadence’s genetics? Well, I guess I’m rambling arent I? The point is, is that a voting system probably wouldn’t be good either, it’s even more corrupt than alicorns being rulers. <br>But hey I’m just guessing

Is this just a ploy for you to become the next ruler?

(please note that this is a joke)


i think that there should be alicorns and one ruler from each spices

Have you ever seen Twilight in any episode like that she didn't even want anybody to call princess Twilight


Title: "TWILIGHT IS A DICTATOR!"<br>Me: It's called a MONARCHY

Title: "TWILIGHT IS A DICTATOR!"
Me: It's called a MONARCHY

@Alex Hampton That transfer of power between generations is extremely important to the difference such as many leading traits are passed down by being taught to the heirs and when the current monarchy dies it leads to a peace transit most of the time. When it comes to the romanization of king and queens it's more so the words king and queen are rather then the government system itself as many modern day monarchies such as North Korea aren't called monarchies when clearly are.

@Luis Chavez eh, not really. A monarchy is just a dictatorship that is passed down from generation to generation. People try to pretend there's a difference because there is  a lot of romanitization of kings and queens, when in the end they are all just systems of government where all political power is concentrated in one person

@Your pussy Stank oh. Ok. I think you are right.

@Catherine Bowman Wasn't that sci twi though? Sci Twi and Princess Twilight arent the same person

@Joshua Weldon have you seen MLP EG? even though it is not in MLP FIM, it is still in the MLP show franchises since it is in the My little pony equestria girls show.

@Catherine Bowman that wasn’t in the real Snow 😒

@William Caputo but in MLP EG, she got corrupted and turned into Midnight Sparkle and became selfish, just so you know.

@Catherine Bowman How so is she corrupt? She has shown equality towards all species and was the first princess to actually openly implement equality towards all species by opening up a school to all species. Celestia's school is not only for ponies only, it's for unicorns only too. As for Luna, she once quite actually went corrupt. I don't like Twilight that much based off of her personality much but she has shown to be a great leader.

@Whalepussy yeah. I was about to get to that point but didn't have enough time to finish my reply because I use my phone too often and so, I had a low battery then when I finished that reply comment. But thanks for pointing that out but also, I was mentioning that anyone can be corrupted if they are a leader of a certain government type, but using Monarch as an example.

@Catherine Bowman it’s only corrupted if she’s doing something like, taxing only the other species or allow only ponies to kill other species

Well, there are Corrupted Monarchy and so, that means Twilight is a corrupted Monarch type leader!

@Suksas It mainly from how they are chosen a monarchy as it based on bloodline while a dictator is some who took power by force.Essentially twilight is apart of house alicorn and took over after celestia and luna abdicated thus there was no force required to become ruler thus its a monarchy which are overall more stable for this reason.


This is literally changeling discrimination in the start


My sis said: The first few minutes were soooooooooo funny!


I guess it's just simple kings and queens knowledge. The next son or even daughter who is the oldest of the bunch immediantly gets the thrown after a king or queen has fallen to make sure that the family can live on and rule the land.. maybe it's kind of the same for alicorns then. I don't think that it is a form of "dictatur" in that way though. What about the UK for example? Its not a dictatur but the queen/king does have a big last word there too. They have a good rulership and it could be pictured the same as in MLP. So basically what I mean for my example is that it all could be made after this modern way we see kings or queens today like the constitutional monarchy in uk. I just hope I said nothing wrong omg, correct me if needed❤ and I do understand though why she could be something like dictator too. Anything is imaginable for it, it depends on how you see it


I vote for Sawtooth waves!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂


But you didn't made a Theory about Princess Celestia<br>Is Princess Celestia Also a Dictator?

But you didn't made a Theory about Princess Celestia
Is Princess Celestia Also a Dictator?


Technically it's not a dictator, but more a divine right monarch since Equestria has a set of nobels which help her govern


Yes, we need dragons etc to be the ruler


No it would ruin the majesty and Celestia would impeach them(Nightmare moon)


Alright the into was definitely a try not to laugh challenge.


Every one seems happy when alicorns rule the equestria. It is also a pony land, but other creatures like dragons have there own ruler. And if a powerful villain attacks equastria alicorns and the princesses always save the day. So why change that.


Me: Sees the thumbnail<br>Also me: WHY IS THIS IN MY RECCOMENDED

Me: Sees the thumbnail
Also me: WHY IS THIS IN MY RECCOMENDED


it's obvious that the things goes wrong, by the g4 beggining maybe the alicorn rule ended whit twilight and his absolute monarchy because of a revolution/civil war, not only a democratic one, maybe as well a socialist/comunist one who knows ecuestria at war (hoi4 mod) has that scenario really deep and good good made up


King Discord to represent all of eqestria<br>Seen Fluttershy to keep Discord in check

King Discord to represent all of eqestria
Seen Fluttershy to keep Discord in check


If I understand writerly, Equestria has similar system with United Kingdom + Sombra was usurper of Royal power, so changlings are more correct example of bad monarchy. I'm sorry, English isn't my native.


What if one of. the creatures running for ruler made all other creatures agree with them? There could be bad leadership.


A good idea, but MLP is set in a Roman Empire leadership era. Where the current ruler adopts their successor and when that ruler passes, their successor takes over, no questions asked. Good idea though!


At the start I was like: What are you a hater…?


I know this isn't really related to the video but....

In the ending of the end pt. 2, when cozy drains the princess's magic, their hair stops flowing and loses the sparkle, which means that their magic keeps it glittery and flowy.
Which means only one option....

LUNA FELT BETRAYED BECAUSE CELESTIA HAD A MAGICAL GLITTER MAKEOVER WITHOUT HER!!!!

no srsly

Oo interesting now my it my comment just kidding


How to represent every species in one ruler

Elect a Changeling, they’re everything while still being one being


Well if she’s worried about not being a princess anymore they could establish a parliamentary constitutional monarchy and then she could stay on the throne.


Twilight got her wing because she finished Starswirl's spell.


Celestea: I’m gonna RETIRE
Also Celestea: let’s yeet some wings so twilight can be the new ruler
Me: what...? Uhm why her tho

@KitKat Breaker In my little pony show, yeah. In real life, no. Look.. it's a fictional story, it's not that deep

@Willamette Anderson do any of these qualify for a political figure?

Because twilight developed the Qualities of a true princess the moment she moved to Ponyville, also, Celestia didn’t even TURN twilight into an alicorn, if you look closely the magic shown during the transformation is pink not yellow, and it didn’t come out from celestia’s horn, it came from her heart. Twilight went from not caring about friendship, to actually caring about it. She legit save Equestria from discord and saved the Canterlot wedding from chrysalis, and it’s not like she became an alicorn because of that, it’s because she learnt friendships lessons in the episodes of mlp. SHES THE ELEMENT OF MAGIC FOR CELESTIA’S SAKE!! The pony even helped her friends get her cutie marks back.

Plus she knew the other kingdom had allies and friends there

Because she is a princess of friendship and princess cadence is rolling the Crystal empire and since Luna and Celestia are retiring it would make sense that they're putting Twilight in charge

1st. Celestia tested her and made sure she is fit to understand others and protect everyone.
2nd. She represents one of the elements of harmony well.
3rd. Did you even watch the show?

Besides Cadence, Twilight would have the most experience and knowledge abt the pony kingdom politics wise besides the other 5 who may know a little, but Twilight would probably know most of how to rule the pony kingdom being she shadowed Celestia practically her entire life. Cadence has her own kingdom and a husband and baby, so she already has her plate full. So Twilight at the time was the best option.


I do want to clear up that a Monarchy isn't a Dictatorship, even if they're close. Monarchs rise up from some right to rule, usually bloodline or divine right on earth, with the keys of power relying on that order. Dictatorships rise from a power vacuum, where there is no ruler and someone has to seize power and the support of the keys.

That aside, I think alicorn Monarchy is what equestia needs rn. Nonstop villains trying to take control, and often by lying, persuasion, and/or mind control, is a common thing. An election is exactly what they need to gain that control in a way the Mane Six can't stop. Best case scenario, Flim and Flam become rulers, worst case is someone like Cosy Glow or the old Discord taking control. Maybe in the far future elections will be good, but not while we have so many good princesses lined up, and especially not while so many people would abuse that system.

Bonus question. Why isn't princess Celestia queen? Who is the queen of Equestria?


I realized recently that the Mean Six are made of wood.  And therefore...


Btw when the bad guy that is a “alicorn” (idk her name) cause she took powers from something (I didn’t watch)<br>So she obviously a unicorn you saw at the end that she went back to an unicorn

I guess you could argue as someone who lives in England, we dont vote for our queen but she is the one who ends up having the final say if a law is passed or not. We vote for an mp or in the show, a mayor or delegate. So it could work something like that??

@Suksas She delegates the queen of england still has all the power she can still pretty much what ever she wants you see it with the military as they pledge their loyalty to the crown and not the country or parliament.

Queens power is largely ceremonial. She is there to look pretty and do as she is told.<br>Her power no longer belongs to her, but to PM to whom she must give royal powers. If she doesn't, what little ceremony there is left will be taken from her.

@Felix Jongleur the queen isnt supposed to have a public political opinion. Parliament vote on the laws that are passed to the queen but yes that has happened in the 1600s

I am very much sure that the parlament would win in a political conflict with the queen.


Despite the music it took me a bit to get the reference at the start


Twi Twi is a great leading but a bit a of a dicator.


You’re implying that just because she has final say in everything and because other rulers and ponies of her species were corrupt or became corrupted by power, that must make her a dictator, while ignoring your own words that she has everyone’s best interests at heart. The fact that it has the potential to become a dictatorship doesn’t make it likely, nor does it mean it currently is one.


You cant be a princess just because some helio hackney throw wings at you.

@Princess Starlaixy Arixes and I can't tell if I'm a princess or not


As long as it's not FTTP voting, should be fine.  Also, this reminds of a Fic I read once where the masses of equestra had advanced to the point that Monarchy was simply obsolete and unfit for the day's needs.  Distributed power not only means more power to the people, but it also means local leaders can act in a crisis without needing approval from the central authority.  Equestria at this point had grown so big that a central authority was just not feasible, so they passed a law dismantling the Equestrian monarchy.  At first Twilight is all down about it, but then Celestia and Luna welcome her into the realm of retirement basically saying 'good job.'


Can’t they add an actual vote or something idk. Like what u said, just imagine if anybody corrupt got there, they could obviously vote them out.<br>(Originality -1)

You think voting a corrupted princess out is gonna work?

Oh so Nightmare moon could've easily been defeated if she was voted out as a Princess?

dark lord: Yesss, I am an evil alicorn, and really powerful, I shall conquer Equestria!
Voting system: We don't like evil people.
Dark Lord: Well sh*t. There goes my evil plan. Sorry evil army of hell, I lost the election, can't do anything about it.
Evil armies of hell:    :(


Luna and Celestia are the governesses of equestria, this kingdom being the kingdom of ponies it is normal that it is ruled by ponies. In griffonstone, griffins are the kings and make democracy. In the kingdom of changelings it is the changelings who make the laws. Just because kingdoms are united and more diverse now, doesn't mean the whole democracy of a kingdom has to change. It's not a pony that reigns in the changelings and it is not a changeling that reigns in the ponies, it is that simple.In Equestria the princesses are magically chosen. This is how royal democracy is done in this kingdom. If it's okay for that long I don't see the reason to change this government.

Alright, so I have studied this video and have come up with an explanation as to why Equestria is not and should not be a democracy. You have to understand not all countries this show is aired on are democracies. This fully impacts viewers and the makers of MLP to not imply a democratic sense into the program. Putting too many political elements into the show lead to the rejection of the entire concept of the message in MLP. This entire program does lie upon a monarchy, but in a way, this land of fantasy was created in a utopia to be almost perfect to the citizens who reside in it. The main reason why Equestria in its established form of Utopia has this form of hierarchy is that ponies, in the beginning, did not have an established formed of government and when a leader presented themselves (The first president of the united states is a great example of this) They will be tried and if the new form of government propers, than the leader, is placed into power. This can explain why Twilight is not a dictator but rather a pony who has proven to have the skills necessary to obtain the right to power and rule over the land.<br>(I am sorry I wrote so much, I studied Political science so I am backed up)

Tia newer gave real power to anybo.. anypony. She just, u know, Tia. Huge experience and knowlages, ruling for 50 years makes you a pretty good at this. so she choosed the replasement for herself. Trained and teached. so it probably be fine.

Дима Самсонов 2


Its a type of monarchie, no? Plus there is the council of friendship that kind of works as part of the government. But twilight has more power obviously.. yk.. like.. a president perhaps...


ok, I'm a little sad the first few comments never mention the Monty Python references


I think out of all the governments in Equestria, the Ponies got it the best.

Changelings: take on Chrysalis I dare you
Dragons: Might makes Right for now
Yaks: I forgot but Chiefs
Gryphons: Loose but Connections
Hippographs: Monarchy
Ponies: Empowered to change what is wrong.

Sure anyone can go bad but I rather have a all powerful person who meets good over cozy glow "appeal and twist" or the other ones were Being Good doesnt equal Winning the seat and still being good.


"Help, help! I'm being repressed." dang you have just about as good acting skill the Willy Wonka


What if  Celestia can see future and saw that Twilight will be a good leader and Twilight can see the future and doesn't know it yet????


At least equestrias government works better than ours-


I think it may be a constitutional monarchy. It is obviously a monarchy because they have princesses, but i think it is a constitutional one because of 2 things. There are delegates in my little pony, but they do not have much power over their city/state. This is called a unitary government, and it is present in many democracies in the world. Each of the princesses has core values on how they rule Equestria. This might be called a constitution.


It would be funny if Shining Armor became a alicorn when he has a affair with someone else, and then became the alicorn of lust and his wife stayed as the alicorn of true love......


Ok the Monty Python skit gave me a giggle .


Twilight was Evi in the comic actually king sombra wasn't a Unicron he was a umbcrion also I think Twilight earned rescpct from her Piers


You should look into what happened to the other creatures in g5 why aren’t they mentioned? What happened to them ?


But how did big mac became an alicorn in dreams?


Makes sense! <br>She was very demanding even before she was even A PRINCESS

Makes sense!
She was very demanding even before she was even A PRINCESS


Well you can see what happens if u let ponys decide in gen5


Actually on the ponyville,Cadence is still the ruler of the crystal embire


Sawtooth Waves - “definitely an earth pony”

seems legit

Sawtooth Waves - “definitely an earth pony”

*seems legit*


Democracy runs the risk of focusing loyalty on a leader rather than a system. When that single person loses the people's confidence he can be voted out of office, but that frequently also entails his claims of fraud and voter misconduct.
He'll then rally his allies to attempt to overturn the election and, if that fails, attempt an assault on the Capitol Building to seize the government by force.
Not that I'm thinking of any particular incident that might have happened this January; but I am familiar with several such incidences around the world, which have frequently resulted in civil war followed by a distinctly malevolent dictatorship.


Twilight is a DICTATOR. Good that she is a kind and caring one


So what twilight did in the parody was against the 1st amendment


The 1500 year old British monarchy would like to have a word with you.
Also, I'm hearing a lot of "The american system is the best because..because..because I say so!"
As they say, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" you'll only cause problems.

Personally, I think an improvement would be a Starship Troopers style democracy as portrayed in the original novel by Robert A. Heinlein, not the travesty of an "adaptation" directed by Paul "couldn't even finish the first two chapters" Verhoeven. Basically in such a system only those who have served a minimum two years of dangerous and/or dirty public service can vote or hold office. Said service would include but would not be limited to military service with the choice of services to enlist in being limited only by your physical and/or mental aptitude.

The reason why this would work better than any conventional democratic system is because by voluntarily enduring such hardship and seeing it to the end, that person proves they possesses the necessary sense of personal responsibility to place the needs of the group over his or her own needs and use their voting power responsibly and voting in favor of policies that benefit the greatest number of people instead of voting for policies that only serve their own selfish desires at the cost of hard-working tax payers' money, such as expensive and wasteful welfare programs that only benefit the narrow subset of the population they fit into; the so-called "bread and circuses" of the modern era.


It should be changeling ruler ship because changelings can transform into any creature


The thing is twilight didn't just become princess, she had to earn her position sombra did not


The ruler of equestria is choosed by the actual princesses, and they won’t ever choose someone evil, its like a monarchy  but there’s not a royal family.

Autolike for not disappearing  :,v

Technically there is a royal family. Princess platinum and her descendants, and I'd assume Prince Blueblood is a descendant of that family.


Dude here is the problem equestria never has had a puplic vote for this also somewone could easily hacked the system with all that magic going around it would be easy


The first part:

Me:BHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I CANT HELP ME


I do think THAT they definitely should have elections or passing down from generations idk and their is also another thing is twillight actually immortal because she is an alicornand Luna and celestia ruled the world for god knows how long the problem I have is that her friends are not immortal and they can die at any time or twillight did put some random spell on them so they won’t die that fast but THAN again  they have the chance to die so............. that’s kinda brutal for twilight if she would have to rule a world without her friends in it My finall thought is that she will step down and gain her ability to die again or not idk 🤷♀ but who knows


I mean... in the mlp universe, democracy is never an opinion so why not.


maybe this was a part of the reason why equestrian became in the state it was in in mlpg5 :O


Hey isn't Sawtooth a changling? So he does not get dictated by twilight aka why he never voted for her! Vote Sawtooth!
Twilight: THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS!
Sawtooth: Well i cant just go say "oH I GoT SomE FancY WInGs FRom A pony NoW RespECT mE"
Me: He has a point


Um didn't celestia had to send twilight away because she had no other choice.. that seems also like a dictator


Well uh yo-   you got me there, Sawtooth

Well uh yo-   you got me there, Sawtooth


Princess Twilight sparkle looks like Princess Celestia<br>and I love sunset shimmer

Twilight may just be the de jure Princess of Equestria, but she is the de facto hegemonic empress of harmony. At least she earned her crown by saving Equestria/the world multiple times. But your point is still solid, democracy could only be a good thing. One that a smart mare like Twilight would not only cruise to victory in (what's practically a formality of a vote) but also use as a propaganda boost- ah, I mean as proof of her benevolent reign!


Here's my argument with this topic is it shown that Even if All creatures Live or visit Equastria they still have And own Up to their Own kingdoms Policies It's like a Dual Citizenship when compared irl And it is also shown in the show that Equastria is a country of its own So Other Creatures leaders still Have the same authority like what Twilight has


You got Jokes me and rainbow dash have awesome jokes annoying orange


100% Earth pony, Totally not a changling


Equestria just need some democracy-oz or maybe some suprise nuke attack *uhum.. I mean patriotic freedom lesson, especially when oil is founded in Equestria


Seeing how celestia already has twilight picked we can presume that twilight won’t pick someone to take over here.thats where the voting comes in.she sees opportunity in everyone and can’t pick one

That or maybe in another thousand years Twilight picks out a successor that’s relevant to the kingdom’s needs going forward at the time. It’s quite likely Celestia and Luna decided their time as rulers was reaching its natural conclusion and therefore were looking for a potential successor. At the time of picking Twilight as a potential candidate it was still relevant to go with a pony to rule over Equestria. The other species were invited into the kingdom sure, but it’s Twilight and her friends that helped facilitate and maintain that shift in species present which makes her a natural choice to give a test to see if she’s worthy to become a princess


Captain Kirk is a MAD-MIRAL of the Enterprise.


Whatever starlight had going on would see an end to “bad alicorn rule”.


@Sawtoothwaves can you do a theory that im wondering. Ok heres the theory. Can Equestria girls luna also dreamwalk


Equestria is more like a constitutional monarchy the council gathers ideas and are the Prime Minister of their district and Twilight is the Governer General. The PM's have to get the Queen's permission to pass bills into law and the queen chooses who to represent.


I would honestly vote for Luna to become princess/queen of equestria, and I'm not talking about the alternate timeline that Starlight made I mean she would rule with Twilight along side her and Spike would still be there too, and Luna would still dreamwalk, raise and lower both sun and moon, and help Twilight with harder tasks that she couldn't do by herself, and I think that they would be a good team and would have been a better ending to the show in my opinion


Why do alicorn wings appear so different from peges wings?


i like it when you try to talk about the alicorn and then night mare moon pic was there then cozy glow then flurry heart is there and you say Oh Come On  liked that part :3


There was a Big fight and equetria start to fall apart in the ending of the ending


I just realized I haven’t seen a video of yours since “buy our toys” lol 😂


To be honest a changeling could change there form from a pony to different spices


There is a difference cozy was not a royal alicorn only alicorns with a good heart are chosen to rule


Help

someone replaced Twilight with a changeling who spams “shut up”

Help

*someone replaced Twilight with a changeling who spams “shut up”*


Don't we also have spike ruling with Twilight and I think they did not show any other non pony leaders so that we can make the other rulers our selves to represent the species.


Being a democracy would clearly be better, but twilight only governs equestria, not the whole land. Also, you may say that anyone abe to do so can run for like a president or something, since everyone from dragons to hippogriffs come there, but equestria is more like the Baghdad of the land, you know for like studying friendship, but it would and/or should have its previous monarchy, like at the time of medieval Bagdad, so to say.


Democracy, defiantly, my reasoning is that this community has had an impact on your world already and we need to go another step further


Cute theory, but you need to research the concept of "Might Makes Right", clearly the Alicorn Oligarchy lives by that moto...

let's not forget that chrysalis is an alicorn and was a dictator too :)

@Sawtooth Waves ohhh wow i didn't know! thanks for responding<3 i love ur videos!!

chrysalis is their mother!! she doesn't rule, she parents <3


i just thought of something mind blowing WHAT IF QUEEN CRISALIS WAS A NORMAL CHANGE WING BUT USED HER CHANGING MAGIC OR WHATEVER TO LOOK TALLER!!!!!!


Is it just me or would changlings work at least a little?


come on sawtooth what did you exspect...


With a name like Mayor Mare, it’d be selfish to not vote you.


I think equestra would become bigger like Rohde island and more powerful like Warwick


We really needed a Villain to change this whole princess thing.

@Mlg pro player 291 1.I will rather take Alicorns rather than Fking Communism!
2.what if a threat appeared? WHAT THEN? No one had special talents so they will all turn to starlighr..so ya..she done Goofed it will never work.
3.The reason Alicorns are not Dictators is because they allow citizens that show great promise to evolve and Grow or even be BETTER than them absolutely EVERYONE is allowed to follow their dreems and Better themselves and thus by that extent Better the Kingdom ..and when they achiev the "You are worthy" Tittle you are ready to be an allicorn princess/prince yourself or just samoane that Can replace alicorns..
So in all honesty..any points on HOW equestria is a Efin Dictadorship?

I think that Starlight's Village almost changed the Princess System... It could be a side effect of Starlight plans, at least.<br>General Diana Moon Glimmer was more focused on changing the Cutie Marks but her ideas could have overthrown the Alicorns Dictators.

Equestria not hav democracy. Euestria sistem is SEMI-ABSOLUTED Monarhy with co-regent sisters Celestia and luna. When Celestia and Luna retired and Twlight up on Throne become a Constitutional Monarhy


So if you want I can go to anyone else’s dreams my little pony then can she go on her own?


Twilight: shut up shut up please shut up<br>Me: 🤣🤣🤣

Twilight: shut up shut up please shut up
Me: 🤣🤣🤣


Princess celestia had twilight on her eye since the test to get in her school and so if twilight was a bad person princess celestia would not take her to the dimension where she got the wings or for that matter not even continue her studys and training I mean if twilight knew cozy glow was a bad pony she wouldn't keep her in the school and send her to stone sooner but hey dont listen to me ive only been watching the show since I was I don't know 6 (great idea but you just got to think)😌


I kinda dislike this theory because creatures like cozy glow could exist and what then? It's easy to get power but if times change it's gonna be difficult to strip someone of it.


replace one broken system with another...


Twilight is still the roller because Equestrian still belongs to the ponyes. The other species still have a lider. If a hippograft wants to live in   the chanling hive or a griffin moves to Equestria won't matter. At least that what I think.


SAWTOOTH YOU DON'T EVEN VOTE FOR PRINCESSES,PRINCES,QUEENS OR KINGS IN IRL


I think that the alicorns are the rulers because they're the ones who raise the sun and moon?


if someone lapped some feathers at me. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH THAT GOT ME XD


THE REASON THE OTHER CREATURES DONT HAVE RULERSHIP IN EQUESTRIA IS EQUESTRIAN MEANS TO DO WITH HORSES AND PONIES OBVIOUSLY AND THEY HAVE THEIR OWN KINGDOMS!!!

Danganronpa Yes Gabby's Dollhouse No 🇸🇬 #BanNSFW


It's easy to understand. Equestria is under the war. Count number of villains who tried to take control over the land and ponies during few years. Thats why the leader of Equestria is always the most powerfull pony of them all. She can be a bad ruler but she have to be powerfull enough to protect her subjects. Twilight was learning how to protect Equestria for 9 seasons and she was learning how to rule it only for 1 last season, maybe some more (1.5 seasons). So, yes, she is a dictator but it is a need of the land. That's why nobody wants to start elections there. There are not so many unicorns to elect xD


It would be chaos doing that plus if there ever was a bad leader it most likely the citizens would fight back especially dragons


1:34 ...But did star swirl know that Luna and calestea where fit to rule and didn't Celestea know twilight was fit to rule... But that don't explain Sombra... So your ok you win :/


Is sawtooth a Earth pony or a Pegasus or unicorn

You should make a video about earth pony magic


What's next? Changelings should rule Equestria because they can represent all living things?


You left out the “Bloody Peasant!” Line in your opening parody.

Me: is that g5 foreshadowing?

Twilight Sparkle Should Wear A Swimsuit In The Castle Throne Room


How did Celestia and Luna get there wings


Amagine the heaven discord could rule if he was the leader of equestria


Well sure the other pony or creature can vote who would be there Princess or Prince but isn't that suppose to be the responsibility of the former ruler (Princess Twilight). Princess Celestia and Luna past the responsibility to Princess Twilight and so on so fort.

Princess Celestia and Princess Luna became the Princesses of the Sun and Moon not because they were the chosen one or because of there name relate to the Sun and Moon but "more like they were destine by it" I don't really know why but may point is isn't that the responsibility of the former ruler to past the responsibility to protect there
 " Kingdom" .

Hope it make sense


R u also saying that in the other parts of equestria for example the dragon land ponies gets to rule too? I think alicorns are more suitable for ruling its like real life the Philippines President is a filipino .. Elections is also a problem just like what happened in canterlot high.. That's just what I think or just make a council


If you watch  0:00 - 1:08 in subtitles it makes no sense XD


Help, Help I’m being oppressed! That got me 😂


This entire video is one big Monty python reference.

Sounds like the British monarchy. No term limits, no voting, all final say goes to leader.


If they had a voting system it could lead to someone who seems nice is actually mean gets elected, and just because cozy glow was a alicorn doesn’t mean she was a ruler. Also there are other kingdoms, am I wrong? The other creatures chose to live where pony’s are. A alicorn ruler is fit if they became a alicorn because they earned it, Twilight has defeated many bad guys with her friends. She was also the element of magic making her powerful, so she was trustworthy, powerful, knew how to defeat bad guys and also where linked to the elements which can take down pretty much any villain. Which is a good candidate for the next ruler, so each ruler chooses a new ruler. Now one day a ruler might choose someone who isn’t a pony.


I don't like how alicorn's age different. Twilight looks younger than her friends.


I remmber that the past ruler of equastria chose twilight as ruler


A dictatorship is only bad if the dictator is bad,,,cannon Twilight wou;d probably be fine with elections but would YOU want to give Nerosis in a fur coat any reason to worry that she could be replaced? not me.<br>she's the type that would do her job too well if her performance was ever called into question and that may actually be more dangerous than anything an evil ruler would do

Do you guys think the ponies in this show are slightly hairy like real life horses are do you think they're just really smooth like rubber, also do you think Pegasus wings feathery or are they also just really smooth?

won't ever see my comment but, The other creatures have their own rulers, Changelings have Thorax, Sea ponies/hippogryphs have queen Novo. The dragons have Ember etc. Only the giffens don't have a ruler.


I truly agree like think about it changelings have magic that horn things Plus they can fly so alicorn arent realy special


your highness king sawtooth of the hive. The changeling ruler.


The Monty python and the holy grail parody😭


yea..... no every creature has its own leader so i think your wrong like amber or thorax for example


I will pick Twilight and for the little one spike because Spike is Twilight friends


Who else doesn’t like how twilight is like 7 feet taller than the other 5 😒😒

@ᴀʀᴛʟᴇ might be cause shes the only ruler aside from Celestia and Luna before her.

@shen Nope. Fluttershy is the oldest of the main 6. If you look in the episode that shows how they got their cutie mark, Fluttershy has the body type of an older kid pony.

@Gigi luvs marie the only one we know for a fact is older than the rest is Fluttershy.

@Gigi luvs marie actually she is the youngest, at the beginning of the show i think she's 19. the others are older. did you know sunset shimmer was around 10 years older than twilight. and starlight is the oldest, i think she might be older than sunset. but apple jack is the oldest of the mane 6.

Cadance is an alicorn though. She isn’t that tall. Neither is Luna either actually. (Not sure if being banished to the moon caused her not to be that tall or something.) Celestia’s the only princess that tall. I feel like maybe because Twilight was her successor or something like that. But that kinda seems stupid...

Idk

Artle and firefrog I don’t think so... I mean, it seems much more time has passed until the time she’s the ruler of equestria than the time that took luna to her height in the “present” seasons... if I got it right the mane 6 are at least 18 in the first season when Luna transforms back from Nightmare moon (already higher than alicorn twilight back then) and to season 9 there are approximately 7 years I believe, while now, from the look of the mane 6 there have been something like 30/40 years so yeah, I think that twilight should be that height.<br>But remember these are all suppositions considering there is nothing confirmed about the mane 6’s ages and the how many years each season corresponds to, and this is all my opinion about the topic. I believe it’s sorta this way, if you don’t, I won’t argue more about it.

@Somnia true i love Twilight but from how the time has passed through their land ,she should be at Luna's height

Glad Penguin Art <br>Well we know that fluttershy is a year older than pinkie pie, because she said so in an episode.

Random Wof things all this hatred of twilight having a princess appearance
Damn guys! She’s a PRINCESS and if she became the successor of Celestia why wouldn’t she have the look of a ruler princess?
I’m not trying to hate or anything but by my point of view is more then legit for her to look more like a grown up, and as a alicorn, not by an already aged look like her friends, but with height and that floaty hair of her
So this is my opinion :^

It's an effect on EVERY alicorn. Shining Armor looks like a regular colt just like the others 5 being regular ponies compared to Twilight and Cadence.

SHES THE RULER OF EQUESTRIA LOOK AT CELESTIA AGE DOESNT MATTER!!!

Yea me neither , and i dont like the way twilight hair just float like that either


Why don't we divide Equestria to different pieces and let one creature rule one piece but leaders and subjects visit pones and others at canterlot once an onehundred moons?


A title that said sawtooth waves is a dictator

Oh c,mon!  I mean I really don’t want to be rude but twilight did So well on her  tests-that she became a princess and make friends I did that and I’m not a princess well I kind of don’t wanna be a princess but still I don’t think that’s fair… that’s still a great video😁


Hey- I'd vote for Discord. A vote for Discord is a vote for Sassyshy.

That's reason enough.

I'd vote for Dazzle Glider. (Sorry for anyone who didn't get this. I am just going for a different pony.)

I vote for princess Sunset Shimmer. Ah. No one cares ok.


Why not just have a constitutional monarchy


Discord would be a great ruler, what are you talking about? he has Fluttershy to keep him in check now.


If there was a bad Alcorn ruler there are 2 possible options option 1 is that most likely there will not be a Alcorn that was they wouldn't get turned into one option 2 is the ponys could fight if there was bad Alcorn ruler


I mean if you think about it.A Changling is everyone in one sooo....

The changelings leadership is more likely "the stronger one is the alpha".

Ferretzim 86 She’s evil no one would vote for her unless they took over again. (Which would be hard because she’s in a stone prison.)

Sooo, Chrysalis should be the ruler? She's already a queen, and she's a changeling.

sadly his campaign says "totally an earth pony", and if he revealed that he's actually a changling then he would be exposed to the fact that he lied :/

"Sawtooth Waves: Definitely an Earth Pony"


I vote for princess luna, because then and only then will the fun be doubled!


I choose Twilight Twilight is the best Pony I am passing Thailand is the best permanent she helps others her best friends are always precious white


Wait but there are separate kingdoms and if you don't like the way the alicorn system goes then go elsewhere ig?


I think she wants you to Order some fast food


Mungogerrie? and no Griddlebone to be mentioned?


0:00 - 1:05
And that my friends, is the result of Sawtooth in Quarantine.


Only ponies can rule may not be the right word. Maybe it should be said: That only ponies can rule Equestria, I mean it was the ponies that founded Equestria from the begining. And if you ask me, Cozy Glow Completely different kind of alicorn than Twilight. Same thing with FlurryHert. But the pony whale thing sounds really good now then I think about it…


Couldn't flury heart be an exception she is a baby after all


Idk if that's a good idea, have you seen what happened this last year in America's political system?


Thorax is kinda good they can change forms.

ᴛʜᴇᴘʀᴏᴍɪꜱᴇᴅꜰᴀʟʟ


yeahhh, but all the different species have their own rulers back in their own homes


I’m sorry but  Twilight is of mine favorite characters

I mean you don't vote in monarchy XD and even with votes if a person says "I didn't vote for you though" You still rule over them if you won XD


but what if they get forced to vote the person ey


And nobody asked the question What if Midnight Sparkle vs Twilight Sparkle?


… this is a universe where government is kinda likeeeeeeee monarchy? Or something. Yeah it is!
Celestia chose Twilight as the ruler and Celestia’s parents made Celestia the ruler. I think that’s how it worked.
Ofc Ik where you’re coming from but governing in Equestria doesn’t have to be the same as the real world. Plus I don’t think twilight is a dictator as she would let the council decide as they are all rulers of Equestria but Twilight was chosen as the head because she has that leadership role in the group. Even if she did have a different opinion than the rest she’d have a reason.


Hey why can't a pony from each tribe be in charge of ruling


Well if human beings have a democracy so why not ponies have a democracy I don't see the harm in it just make sure that the person that you are electing isn't a person who is a criminal

why did twilight get crowned
i aint been here since season 7


Cozy glow actually became an alicorn, because she was a pegasus and she received magic from the bell. So she is no "real" alicorn, which means, that alicorns do have a good heart. And also Twilight is no dictator. She's a queen. That's a difference.


Even tho shes a dictator would she be bad as a ruler? (Didnt see the vid yet


I think it's stupid to think any specific government is inherently corrupt. Monarchies can be corrupt but democracies can be corrupt, too. Just because democracies have elected leaders, doesn't mean they have good leaders (*cough* U.S.A. *cough*). I'm not trying to defend monarchies, I'm just saying don't act like your so called  "freedom of choice" is that much better. Someone much worse than Twilight could end up elected.


I THINK QUEEN AND KINGS AND ROYALS CAN'T USE VOTES


so you wanna bring politics into a kids show?


Can I just say one thing, voting for your leaders is not democracy despite popular to belief. Voting for your leaders is what type of government called a republic. Just look up the definitions and I promise you they are different republic is like the child of democracy


Only unicorns and alicorns can be the Princess because of rising the sun and moon


Literally the second this started I thought, "This is gonna be good"
With that music, how can it not?
EDIT: I was right


I just want to say that the blast that shent twillte to that place is shaped like her cutie mark
and the peaple that where by twilltes side at her corinten look like fluttershy alot there is so
Much to to notice now that I look back at all those seasons m l p will always be my forvrite
I love the opportunity to wach win I can and I hope they make a season 10 so we can no more
I hope it never stops it is sad that the seasons stopped because we'll there is more we need to
No but there are other seasons that we can wach and maby we can see more the we did before


Isn’t equestria a monarchy so they don’t get a choice?


I actually think there should be a voting but a council of creatures each representing each speech sees that is living underneath Equestria because if you think of biswaye Kingdom that's been ruled under monarchs compared to our societies voting system today under presidents and  Meyers the kingdom will fall because there will be a riot after a few years but if it was ruled by a queen or princess or Prince or King I think I lost them to a better Kingdom back-on hoof the creature Council there's a friendship Council yes but what about Council full of creatures of Equestria that are sentient enough to represent their species kind of like how Canada did it you know there is eight representative from each province and territory maybe that will help the perspective towards the creatures a little more


you: exists <br>twilight: ima end this mans whole carreer

We can vote for Equestria Rohde Island and Warwick


Unfortunately with voting there is vote fraud, vote rigging, general mental, physical and emotional violence (apologies if this one applies to you) and other things that make voting just as likely to produce a dictator as one type of species ruling, what there could be however is a council, a specified amount of seats for each species and they can all decide on things a single ruler would. Apologies if I offended anyone, I don't know politics and just know this was not ment to be an attack on anyone.

@durdleduc did u just give us a whole lecture

I think the final episode made it clear that equestria is a very diverse nation now. after all, we very clearly saw the shots of all the different species just sort of hanging out. the friendship school was the gateway to cultural intermingling, and for the first time non-ponies lived in equestria. that trend is not gonna change any time soon, and considering how the history of this kind of subject tends to work, the land of equestra is only going to grow more and more diverse.
if i’m being honest, implying that other creatures can’t have say in equestria because their native land is somewhere else can be comprable to real-life discrimination, like that in the united states. i hope we can all agree that ethnic minorities in america should have fair vote and representation in government; shouldn’t it be the same for equestria?

Heyy, Monty Python’s Holy Grail (theme?)! Hello possible Holy Grail fan and MLP fan!


That is what a monarchy is though. A dictator. Doesn’t have to be a bad thing. The problem with your argument that Celestia passing power onto Twilight doesn’t mean anything is that relies on Celestia not having any authority on picking a leader in her place. Twilight is a princess by Celestia’s authority. And here’s the thing, they may not have voted for Twilight specifically but if the kingdom originally voted for a Monarchy then they voted to be ruled by princesses. This also means anyone joining Equestria is agreeing to be ruled by princesses and all that entails
