Warning to new readers: This fanfic has irregular updates. Story revisions that may or may not change large details about the story may occur without warning.
This fanfic is based on the world of Equestria At War with its very own lore and world, but this fanfic mainly focuses on an alternate New Mareland where it becomes an independent Harmonic Republic if Wingbardy invaded during the Changeling attack on Canterlot in 1002 ALB.
Since MLP:FIM hasn't expanded upon the world outside of Equestria, I will be adding elements from EaW and my own original elements to the story.
Cover made by me (haphazardly).
On the brink of an invasion, the Republic of New Mareland, a war-torn nation from the Equestria at War universe, is abruptly transported to the "peaceful" world of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
The Changeling lands, having subdued the entirety of Equus focuses on New Mareland to make their foothold on Griffonia. New Mareland, after enduring huge losses during the campaign in Equestria, is woefully under-prepared to defend its skies and seas.
But with a bit of luck and magic, New Mareland is uprooted to a new but familiar world. With opportunities on the horizon, will New Mareland greet the inhabitants of this world with friendship or the barrel of a gun? Will the distrust, ambitions and greed between the parties of the Republic cause their downfall? Or will their conniving neighbours conquer them?

So far I'm liking this.
Let's see what you do with this story!
Kinda funny how I just uploaded a story similar to this lol.
10 / 10
Sorry folks, accidentally released the 2nd chapter when it was uncomplete, its finished now.
You should reduce the exposition about weapons and things that happened, it makes the story become boring and lose interest. The dialogue feels somewhat artificial.
I like the concept, I hope they improve and develop it correctly.
Well damn, an EaW get transported to the main world?
Now this is an unique story
I’m curious about the “ideology” in the Canon world (only Monarchy exist in this world)
look like this world is still follow EaW map
Twilight is still an unicorn, interesting!
Nice

Thanks for the feedback.
The entire exposition was a bad idea in hindsight, I should've broken it and revealed it over the course of the story.
I was trying to flesh out New Mareland's worldbuilding. Region building? Lore or something along the lines of that.
I actually struggle with dialogues, so I know why you felt that it was a bit artificial. Any tips on that would be great.

The decision that led to that is due to the base FIM world. The official map released by the show only has Equestria, the western shore of griffonia and the dragon lands in it which is less fleshed out compared to the EAW world. I initially wanted to use the fan-made map on reddit for the world base, in the end I just used the EAW world but 'lore accurate' to FIM (Its just monarchies, monarchs of different flavors everywhere). As for my other reason, that is crucial to the shenanigans that happens in the story later.
According to the show timeline and EAW's calender, the attack on canterlot by the changelings happened in 1002 ALB, so season 3 should be 1003 ALB or 1004 ALB. It's curently 1002 ALB so Twilight should become an alicorn in the coming years.
First story of this kind i see here, I’m very interested, keep up the great work!

Interesting
The only griffon kingdom we know is Griffonstone, and that place is a hellhole
Let hope the new Marelanders can “recover the Borea idol”
It's been so long sence I've wanted to read a eaw story like this now I finely can I loved the first 2 chapters I can't wait to see what happens next but please take your time I can't wait to see what's next also i feel like Celestia knows about the anomaly but is ignoring it or she had something to do with it well have to wait and see I'm loving this here's a follow stay awsome
I'm loving this story already. I would really like to see President Jet Set meeting his MLP counterpart and see their reactions.
Novel!
Interesting start so far. I would caution on going into too much detail on weapon systems and vehicles. Spending pages talking about the different arms and ammo the tower soldiers had, only to not use them in the chapter is counterproductive. You did it better with the carrier battle group in chapter 1 where you stated the ship classes and aircraft models.
I have little doubt your characters will be showcasing these weapons soon, so I caution you against sounding like a gun show looking for customers by explaining each detail of every weapon.
That aside, I am looking forward to how the story unfolds, and what will become of the country.
12023461
Yeah, not particularly proud of the 2nd chapter I'll be honest. I'll reduce that for the next chapters.
Or maybe I'll rewrite that part to be short.
Edit: Did it.
I just noticed, in the final section, the opening blurb says the yer is 1012 ALB instead of 1002 ALB. Beyond that, I'm excited about this story! I can't claim engagement in it yet, but it seems very promising!
12025685
Woops, sorry!
POV: You're me trying to write the 3rd chapter, its 85% complete but you're slowly feeling the writer block sneaking on you
12027374
I can't wait for the next chapter but if you need a brake it's oki to take one well all wait patiently for your return I will idk about other tho but I'll wait as long as it takes this story has so much potential but mental health is important keep up the amazing work
I found a mistake SOMWHERE in this text
"I don't criticised your work, keep going with the story, the story is great"
"Sorry for my bad grammar english is my second language"
12032450
Oh wait I see it, typo lol
EDIT: Fixed!
I rewrote some part of this chapter, you might want to reread it - 11/11/2024
12038460
It the rewrite for chapter 2 or 1 and hope your doing well and staying safe I can't wait for chapter 3 and remember to take it slow well be here for you be safe out there
12038464
Chapter 3's actually finished, its just that I am not really sure on how to end it, I might release it sometime this week if real life is not too much of a bother
12038485
Wait so with this be a 3 chapter only story or will there be more chapter sometime in the future and it's alright take your time dude it'll be alright
This story is pretty good ! keep going with the chapters !
Update ?
I'll worry about polishing this tomorrow, zzzz......
12097264
Thanks for the update 😃
12097413
I was planning to release it last Saturday but had to rewrite multiple times
I think him loudly proclaiming they can't manufacture ammo anymore(or as much) is a worse intelligence leak than shooting a few cans. Being surprised by a rifle's lethality is one thing, and could stop a battle from becoming a war. But an enemy who thinks they can outlast their ammo supply is even worse.
12097769
Nice catch.
That's an interesting plot point which I will keep in mind.
Though I'd doubt they would understand what Erwin is talking about because the Griffons knew little of how a gun works, even with the small amount of information fed by Bandage. Thought it will of course let them figure it out a way to counter guns. Perhaps.
The NMGF is also using 7x40mm, if they decided to gamble on one division lacking munition due to them using their leftover weapons from Equestria, they're in for a bad time when the reinforcement arrives.
This "peaceful" My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic world knows what a rifle is, interesting
maybe only the Equestrian doesn't use a gun/rifles LOL, given the royal guard only use spear/throw rock in the show, and in Sombra war too
using a slur at a diplomatic convoy? Not a smart move
I wonder what is the changeling in this world, are they "Nation big" or just a small hive like the show, so many question
Yessssss I was waiting so patiently I'm happy to see an update it was amazing loved every second of it now I will gladly wait patiently for the next your doing amazing im loving this story and can't wait to see what's in stores hope you have an amazing day dude stay awsome
12098470
It's great to see a familiar face
12098361
I think I made a mistake somewhere? I specifically wrote that Bandage Wrap, a pony from Equestria from the EAW Universe, explaining said concept of guns from his universe to the Griffon escorts. The Griffons are decidedly not using guns to my knowledge, nor are any race in the base MLP series.
Maybe I wrote it too confusing or forgot to add context, woops. I'll rewrite it.
EDIT: Done
I had a great time reading this chapter ! I think the griffons confidence is hilarious too ! and i have a question, do mareland ponies have tanks? (if it was mentioned already in the other two chapters, I might forget it cause i have a short memory)
12099257
Technically, it would be very expensive for them to operate tanks (New Mareland in EAW lacked resources like chromium to build tanks in large quantities to equip entire divisions) but it is possible. I did plan for them to have an Early MBT (probably will be featured in Chapter 6 or 5). Their doctrine is mostly to be used as Fire Support.
12108790
hmm Mareland isn't really prepared in case of an invasion of the griffons then... Mareland is the most advanced nation on Equus now but they still have the scars of the war before they were teleported. I wonder what will be Celestia and Luna reaction when they will see that a whole new nation with a technology that is unknown to Equestria spawned
So thank you for answering my question !
12111432
Idk about that, even without tanks, rifles and machineguns are just as effective against infantry targets.
12111621
hmm but still they have limited ammos btw does the next chapter come out this month? i'm hyped for the next chapters !
12115526
I hope so
Update ?
