    Hey everypony! I'm sure by now everyone has noticed these things but i just thought I'd make this thread anyway.

    I have lately been reading into the show and I have come to the conclusion that there has been some sort of pony war in the distant or not so distant past. I'm sure everyone has picked this up by now but just in case...

    First thing: A distant battle

    I'll provide you guys with pictures that I was able to get my hands on or find.

    Camouflage, usually used when you want to conceal ad hide yourself. either for hunting, or...The army. As you can see the ponies have Camouflage suits, trenches and army helmets. These things are used VERY much in war or for military purposes. There must have been some sort of war in the past to make the ponies create such objects as I cannot see why they would helmets and Camo for the sole purpose of simply hiding from dragons.



    Present:

    Sorry guys the pictures wouldn't upload. I'll describe them. One was a Picture of the air raid sirens from "Secret of My excess" when spike went bezerk, the other was when the Wonderbolts fought him off.

    Here we see Air raid sirens. used to alert the city of danger. In this episode they were used to alert the city of a dragon, Spike. But for those sirens to be there ready and waiting, either something like that would have had to happen before... or there was some kind of war and the town at one point needed to be warned of an attack. It's possible...
    also: The Wonderbolts fought off spike in that same episode. Meaning that they are some sort of emergency airforce? they are obviously aerobatic ponies that mainly do air tricks. here is a picture of the "Blue Angels" They are a group of pilots hat do aerobatics in these blue and yellow jets...not surprisingly the same colour as the colour of the Wonderbolts Uniform.

    The ponies, I notice, also have Haz-mat suits at their disposal...Haz-mat suits could be used for a number of things...Mainly to protect the wearer from chemicals...

    View attachment 3527

    What could the ponies be using chemicals for? Obviously not for Farming methods...otherwise we would have seen Appljack using stuff like that on her orchard...The only other thing I can think of is poison gas or chemical warfare, but I don't have much more proof to support that claim.

    I'm reading too deep in this I know xD. As it IS a kids show, but I find it fun to discover things like this in tv shows...

    Feel free to add or question any info I have here I hope you ponies found this interesting to read! :grin:

    I always wondered how he killed everyone. I'm guessing by some sort of bomb/nuke/poison gas.

    Back to what you were saying 51monn, your bring up some interesting points. I am meaning to do research like this but I never get round to doing it, despite having all the free time in the world.

    Dammit! The damn files will not upload. I'll try uploading them here.

    Sorry guys these files won't upload. I feel like swearing as it is freaking annoying, but I will not because I am better than that.

    basically those were pictures of the air raid sirens and the Wonderbolts fighting off spike

    Swearing doesn't make one a bad person. I swear pretty often. Not out of negative emotions really, but mostly out of irony or hyperbole.

    I guess they had some conflicts with the Griffin Kingdoms, griffins eat horses and I don't think ponies appriciate that. I think raving bands of dog bandits also have to be taken into consideration.


    Not to forget the gates of Tartarus. I think ponies needs a millitary.

    Possible war with humans over world supremacy? We give them intelligence to make them better workers, they rebel, classic story with ponies? Maybe we are still around, even if we are no longer dominant... Would explain the need for a military. Kind of.

    My theory: Mass Effect 3's Synthesis ending changed everyone to ponies. It's the only way I'll accept the ending.

    Maybe, after dogs and cats were considered too useless, we improved ponies so they could serve as more affordable companions, and they broke free and destroyed everything, and then one of the last humans shouted,
    "YOU DAMN DIRTY PONIES!"
