Twin kingdoms ruling side by side, home to the earth ponies. Innovators in the west push for new ideas while the farmers in the east keep the culture grounded in tradition and Celestial worship. Two sides of the same coin.
== Earth Pony Creation Guide==
The information listed below is integral to making an earth pony character. We ask you to prioritize our worldbuilding, these facts must be kept in mind even when deviating from societal norms.
===Appearance ===
Stockier than unicorns, the sturdy build that earth ponies boast lends itself to their varied and labor intensive life style. They have boxy features including but not limited to a strong square muzzle. Often, in the east, tails are kept short to avoid getting them caught in farm equipment. Whereas in the west it is more common to see manes kept similarly short to avoid accidents related to inventing.
===Naming Scheme===
Earth ponies do not have a specific naming structure. (EX. Dusty Lullaby, Marbled Myth, Sundial)
