This story covers the Rise and Fall of the Equestrian Empire. It was a short lived Empire that had dreams of reviving Equestria to its former glory that it had lost during the First Great War. It covers Twilight Sparkle's rise to power, and how the Mane 6 continued to follow her to the end. This covers Equestrian history from the start of the First Great War, and ends with the aftermath of the Second Great War. It is based off of William L. Shirer's The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, however, this does not mean that I in any way support what the main characters do in this.
This is the map of the world I am following for right now, so please use it for reference when I talk about various locations.

Thanks. The first Chapter I've been writing for the last few days. It is probably the longest chapter for any piece I've written so far.
So I finally got around to reading this after you announced the idea...good start!
(or should that be 
, considering...)

Thanks. My apologies though for the long delay, I've been caught up with a lot of real life stuff.
I am almost done with my first major update though. Should be up by week's end at the latest.
Map link's dead. Still have the old one?
Would you like any help making a new one? Really well-written so far, I read the rest on Alternate History.
