Celestia

Princess Celestia is a member of the Equestrian Royal family and formally the First Princess of Equestria. Ruling for 1500 Years since the formation of Equestria, and recently abdicating in favor of Twilight Sparkle.
== History ==
=== Early Life ===
She and Luna were born around 1500 years ago, after becoming independent from Ponyland, for 20 years, Starswirl the Bearded was their regent. They are immortal, and are seen basically as gods, which formed the Celestianist Religion.
=== Rule ===
Myths and fables tell of two regal sisters who ruled together, creating harmony for all the land. The eldest used her alicorn powers to raise the sun at dawn; the younger brought out the moon to begin the night. While it is obvious today that the tales speak of the Royal Pony Sisters who rule Equestria, few, if any concrete facts are known about their history. Their achievements in defeating Discord, King Sombra, Lord Tirek and other terrors have become legendary.
Princess Celestia's role in maintaining a thousand years of peace after Nightmare Moon's banishment has been well documented. Responsible for raising the Sun, and until recently the Moon, she is perhaps the most beloved creature in the world, being a staunch proponent for peace, kindness and cooperation. With the recent return of Princess Luna to assist her in rulership, Princess Celestia continued to perpetuate the long, relative peace for all the ponies of Equestria.
=== Abdication ===
Celestia retired and abdicated from the throne in favor of Twilight taking the throne, this decision is quite controversial, especially among Equestrian Nationalists. Nonetheless, Twilight is Princess now and continues to reign peacefully with a parliament.
== Personality ==
Despite being royalty, she often encouraged her subjects to relax through the use of jokes and gentle questions. She also shows great patience with any inappropriate behavior towards her, as seen when Pinkie Pie snatches a cupcake from her at a party.
