Fun Fact: Draconmannulus is a combo of Latin words, draco (dragon) and mannulus (little pony). Basically Spike. And now you know Latin. You're a Roman.

Prince Blueblood, he's a massive douchebag right? Why do the Princesses put up with him?

Because he's the best politician Equestria has ever seen

This is an interesting take on Blueblood - impossible to stand at personal level, but actually competent on profissional level.

He deals with politics. A lot. If I had the same job, I think I'd be an even bigger jerk than he's ever been, when off-duty.

Oh, and ANM stands for After Nightmare Moon

Neat!

Yeah, politics can be crazy. You know how almost every president developed gray hair? Obama's is like....totally white, way different than 8 years ago

Two mistakes:

This decree was the only thing the mayo had agreed to

Was his/her name Hellmann's or Miracle Whip?:derpytongue2:

But you nee something to build upon,

need?

As for the story, I can see this. Blueblood may be a jerk, a womanizer, and a snob in his free time, but he must be doing something right for the princesses to keep him around.

6503618 I read that the presidency ages you significantly because of all the stress it involves.

"May i ask why we are going, sir?"

A bit 'o capitalization could be in order. Nice story.

Huh, I can kind of see it. I kinda wish there was more to read about Competent-Politician-Blueblood.

Nice to have a clever Blueblood for a change.

6506606 I hope one day I can write a real story about Blueblood's political career

Prince Blueblood isn't the politician Equestria deserves, but the one we need :applejackconfused:

"That decree was changed to allow the right of trial by jury in 1879 ANM."

Oh, and ANM stands for After Nightmare Moon

So, this happened more than 1879 years after Luna was banished? I though Luna had only been banish for 1000 years.

Either way, your story gets an upvote from me.

6507608 she was, but returning for half a day wasn't too important, so I'm assuming they'll keep that time scale.

6510160

I still don't get it. If Luna had been reformed at the beginning of the series, then it would currently be somewhere around 1001 ANM, give or take.

Oh, yeah. Hmmm. I guess I messed up. :twilightsheepish:

Nice concept! I'd like to see more of it! A good break from the usual "Blueblood as Frank Underwood" political stories!

I like this. Have my upvote.

Wait, so Chrysalis's attack doesn't count as an act of war in spite of being acknowledged as coming from outside, and so she's an illegal immigrant which means that law can do nothing? Wat.

6520710 it's called politics. Logic? :rainbowlaugh: Also, the law (Wonderbolts + Royal Guard, and The Prince and Princess) did do something, stop the invasion. But, in order to further his agenda, Blueblood considered it a domestic terrorist attack.

This... makes sense. I like this. I just may make my future depictions of Blueblood a bit like this. Celestia knows I don't like him, but heck, good politicians are rarely likable people. Also, while I naturally have always assumed that Blueblood would be a racist, this shows a different side of him which rounds him out very realistically. Like many people, he's a jerk, but there are some redeeming traits about him.

Actually, a story of Blueblood being a racist, and yet having to stand up for these races because of his loyalty to his country, could make for a very interesting story.

6748505 I might use that racist idea, maybe tell a story about his evolution into a more tolerant pony

I like the thought of Blueblood being a great politician. No one actually LIKES politicians, so he's got that spot on. He knows what he's doing, but people still argue and find fault with it, no matter what, just like modern day politicians, who may or may not get things right and people insult them. :facehoof:

I can see this. Blueblood being that one politician that no one likes as a person/pony, but they are one of the best in the business.

Being ass don't make you bad at your job

If Equestria doesn't have a constitution, I'm confident they may have something sort of a Magna Carta for which guaranty the rights of its citizens.

Soy de Argentina y tengo la misma idea, un presidente nuestro murió en el cargo.

Es un buen desarrollo de personaje. Te quedó genial.
