Canterlot (AngieYaz Sonic Underground reboot)

Canterlot is a location featurd in the AngieYaz/RoseOfSharon reboot of the Sonic Underground television series, emigrated from the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic series. It is a city first featured as the residence of Twilight Sparkle, where she studies under Princess Celestia. The city holds the royal castle, making it the capital of Equestria. It is also the venue of important cultural events like the Grand Galloping Gala. The name of the city is a portmanteau of "canter," a three-beat horse gait, and Camelot, a British kingdom from Arthurian legends.
==Depiction in the series==
===Geographical location and features===
Canterlot is built into the side of a tall mountain that overlooks Ponyville. Twilight Sparkle and Spike travel the distance between the two locations in a short amount of time, riding in a flying chariot pulled by two Pegasus royal guards. Princess Celestia travels in the same way. In addition, Rarity's friends manage to get from Ponyville to Canterlot within a day. Pinkie Pie and her friends travel from Ponyville to Canterlot via train on an overnight trip. The spires of Canterlot, protruding from the mountain, have been shown to be visible from Ponyville.
===History===
Many high-society ponies in the show hail from Canterlot, including Photo Finish, Hoity Toity, Sapphire Shores, and Fancy Pants. In another instance, the vast majority of its residents are unicorns. According to Spike, the residents use magic to change the seasons, rather than by hoof like in Ponyville.
===Infrastructure and places===
The city features numerous ivory towers with golden spires and many waterfalls and rivers running through it.
====Twilight Sparkle's tower====
Twilight Sparkle and Spike's original home. It is a loft at the top of a tall tower where Twilight keeps multiple shelves worth of books and reference material as well as a large hourglass. Twilight gives Moon Dancer the key to the tower and allows her to come and go as she pleases.
====Canterlot Castle====
Canterlot Castle is the palace where Princess Celestia and Princess Luna lived and ruled Equestria from. It consists of at least the throne room, a large ballroom, a kitchen, a telescope observatory, and the Pony Princess Wedding Castle ceremonial hall. Latr, the throne room is redesigned so that now both Celestia and Luna have their own thrones.
Later, Star Swirl the Bearded shields the castle with shards from Queen Chrysalis' throne to prevent any and all magical incursion. Large fans are also installed on the outer upper levels, so as to repel any attempt by intruders to simply fly in.
As a result of Celestia and Luna retiring and moving to Silver Shoals, Twilight moves into the palace and becomes the new ruler of Equestria.
====Sculpture garden and hedge maze====
The royal sculpture garden and hedge maze are a prominent feature in Canterlot. The garden holds several statues depicting ponies in regal capes and Discord's stone prison. Cheerilee takes her class of foals on a field trip to the sculpture garden, and an argument between the Cutie Mark Crusaders helps Discord escape confinement. The sculpture garden and hedge maze are also featured in various merchandise and promotional material.
=====Pony Princess Wedding Castle=====
The Pony Princess Wedding Castle is where weddings are held.
====Canterlot Tower====
Canterlot Tower is first featured in The Return of Harmony Part 1 as the location where the Elements of Harmony are stored. When Princess Celestia tasks the Mane Six with using the Elements on Discord, she uses her horn to unlock the tower and retrieve the Elements, but Discord has already stolen them. The tower is featured again in A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2 when the Mane Six try to reach the Elements and use them on Queen Chrysalis and the changelings, but a large swarm of changelings blocks their path.
