Over 200 kilometers from Ponyville to Canterlot? |
| DeeperMadness #304437 1 year ago |
Landmarks don't really have to be puns; you could just give them proper names like "Old Pond" or "The X Bridge" or "The X Tunnel" or "Angel of the X" (NB latter could be a pegasus). |

More names! Neighzing, Hornwall, Hoofswell, Runhorn, Whinnybledon (and Whinnybledon Common), Cartlepool, Haliflanks and Glascow (where the cows from Applebuck Season come from?) |
| nsko #304472 1 year ago |
@anon435 I assumed the distance between ponyville and canterlot wasn't a walkable distance (they always took a carriage to get between them), but I think 200km is reasonable. And on a clear day, I'd guess you'd be able to see a castle in the mountains 200km away (or am I crazy?)
But I think the distance on the map is closer to 400km, which is a stretch. Will fix! @anon443 and +1,000 internets to all that notice it XD @MetalHooves XD @ Amareica @everyone You're all awesome! All these great names, which to choose?! |

How about Maredrid, or even Weston-super-Mare? |
| Anonymous #304491 1 year ago |
@304472: 200 km is still too much. Fastest horse can run 17,78 m/s, so 200 km takes about 3 hours and 7 minutes. These aren't race horses we're talking about, they're ponies. One-way trip would take them entire day; if they could keep up reasonable pace. |

Ponyville seems a bit far from the Everfree Forest and Froggy Bottom Bog. Fluttershy lives right next to the forest, and I can't imagine her living more than half an hour's walk away from Ponyville. |

@DHYohko Photoshop + a lot of patience XD
@304491 & @Lockstep Good points, I think I'll reconsider the scale or compress Equestria. @304483 Foal Chi Minh XDDD I like! (Think I'll save it for when I add more land to the northeast though). @Homfrog Ibex = agreed, Canida = great idea! What's Gorgonzola a reference to? @ArT3m1S <.< Bingo! But I'm trying to at least make the area around Ponyville as canon as possible. |

| Drasvin #304992 1 year ago |
@anon 491 When going to the Gala, it's night when they arrive. While it doesn't give any indicator when they left for Canterlot (as far as I know) it wouldn't be that much of a stretch to say it takes most of the day to get from Ponyville to Canterlot by land. By air would be faster, mainly because one doesn't have have to worry about terrain, like climbing the mountain Canterlot is built upon.
@nsko Also Manehatten should be closer to ponyville. Applejack was able to see ponyville on the edge of the horizon from the apartment she was living in at the time. |

New Marecico? |
| nsko #305309 1 year ago |
@Drasvin I've been struggling with getting Manehatten in the right spot, but I'll keep at it. I'll move it closer to the western edge of the mountains beside dragon mountain. I don't want to mess up the layout too much now, because most of its placement was extrapolated from the wiki or Fausts own description.
I could also assume/hope she was in a *very* tall building XD @304937 Certainly! I forgot about that :D @The_Walhi_Llama I was more proud of myself for coming up with Himallama than I'd like to admit XDD @Dark_Horst The idea was inspired by norse myth, where--among the other inhabitants--four deer (representing the four winds) would live off the buds of the tree. It's also relevant to my fic, in which I depict the deer as very traditional and wise: with an unmatched proficiency with magic. |

Fail for lack of Manehattan. It's canonically in the show, man, come on. |
| Anonymous #306223 1 year ago |
@304992: True, but can you see a castle from 200 km away? It would have to be a very VERY big castle. It would disappear below the horizon. Canterlot would have to float in the air, 50-100 km above the ground. Or something like that, I haven't done the math.
In-show, Ponyville almost looks like a suburb of Canterlot. |
| Anonymous #306341 1 year ago |
Antlerarctica for the south pole area. |
| nsko #306472 1 year ago |
@305656 o_O it's right there: west of the everfree on the other side of the mountains. Kinda hard to miss, no?
@304992 @306223 I definitely over-estimated the distance between things in Equestria. According to my map, it's roughly 100km to Fluttershy's cottage and apple acres :/ I shall fix! |
| Long_Fallen #306476 1 year ago |
@305656
Look harder. |
| Lockstep #306500 1 year ago |
Some places in Equestria may be farther apart, but Canterlot, Ponyville, Cloudsdale, and Manehattan are fairly near to each other.
It's hard to imagine all of Equestria being visible from Canterlot, especially since the Princess is effectively the world's most powerful and influential being. It's gotta be pretty good size. |

We know Equestria is a pony society, but as far was we know other countries are populated by other species. Like a griffon country. |
