Headcanon: Real-World Equivalents- Zebrica · 5:04pm Aug 8th, 2018
This is more so I don't forget but I'm glad if you find this interesting.
I'll add to this as I go on. Please let me know if you have any recommendations. I won't refuse without reason. Must be real or historical (Or at least based on that)
The world outside Equestria is quite a full place and almost everywhere has something going on. Zebrica is no exception. The Antelopian Lands are many and great, as are the regions where the hippo, rhino, elephant, giraffe, gnu and countless others make their home, to say nothing of the vicious Ivorium Empire that seeks to dominate the continent.
Yet Zebra still reign among the most populous and widespread race in Zebrica and the various states are catalogued as follows.
Egypt- Dhabar/Enigma
Algeria- Shasira
North and South Sudan- Tamsira and Namira
Ethiopia- Grevyssinia
Morocco- Yamara
Tunisia- Calisha
Libya- Boasha
Tanzania- Malizia
Kenya- Hurunia
Nigeria- Iroka
Ivory Coast- Ebony Coast
Ghana- Mefiria
Uganda- Zuria
Mozambique- Lulambique
Gabon- Listradon
Congo- Ukisia
Somalia- The Crossing
Botswana- Dipitsia
Cameroon- Perolia
Angola- Goloso
Zimbabwe- Nemanzia
Zambia- Damboland
South Africa- Umangania
Sounds very good to me. Sometimes I wonder, given how many fans make counterpartsd of countries like italy or Germany, what country Equestria would represent.

I would assume North America (Since they have equivalents of both Manhattan in USA and Vancouver in Canada). Still they have a slight Arthurian fantasy theme but that could just be to relate to the previous generations of MLP.

Yep. And forget Trottingham. I had said a mix of America, Canada and England.

True. Although there's mention of the 'Grittish Isles'.
And its not actually stated where Trottingham is in relation to Ponyville.
Maybe as Canada is still recognised as a member of the British Commonwealth, Trottingham represents its English culture.
Though of course it's a play on Nottingham.
Maybe they have an evil Sheriff. That would be fun.
