Hoi4 MLP: Friendship, Harmony, and Peace Through Destruction 

I had the exact same reaction when I heard him say that

I saw the Riverlands and shook my head at my last game I played as Diamond mountain....

FREEDOM IS THE RIGHT OF ALL SENTIENT BEINGS! EMBRACE DEMOCRACY OR BE ERADICATED!

You’re not wrong

Equestria is canonically pretty much the only place where harmony (And thus, friendship) reigns, and a significant portion of the later seasons is about Celestia engaging in cultural imperialism. Inviting the children of the elites of the world to come study magic at her school and then bombarding them with her ideology, actively engineering friendships between races hostile to eachother, and so on. The moral of the last season can be basically articulated as "Integrated schooling can prevent a race war." if you were to state it in adult terms. This thesis gains its greatest challenge when the villains from across the entire show decide they're sick of getting dunked on, with a super racist pony who decides "Friendship" is a tool that can be used for evil too, creating a league of racists and supervillains. The "A better way to be bad (Frenemies)" song goes over it.

Let's just say the influence of the tree of harmony doesn't extend much outside of equestria, and equestria's leaders are absolute powder kegs.

everything outside the Equestrian continent is purely fanfiction

@@MrTeddy12397 Not everything, but almost all of it yeah.

Celestia: luna? Cadence? Im about to go daybreaker Ill be right back *flames engulf Celestia*

He seemed to be having more fun with this playthrough than some of the challenge runs or anything in Millenium Dawn.

We are doing the right work

@@Nerdnumberone that's because MD is just bad. This is...not an ultimate cavalry mod

/][\

also to watch his reactions to pony puns (not enough in this episode tho)

Same, instant like

Same.

I remember the first time I introduced this mod to my wheraboo friend, he was willing to try and now he says it's one of the best mods currently for hoi4.

​@@sued_ I'm not even a big mlp fan but it really is. The mlp fandom is dedicated and it shows.

@@razorflossrazor2937 Didn't some of the OG kaiserreich Devs also work on this?

Big R.I.P. To griffin Rome wannabes!

River Federation is basically Yugoslavia, though

another good commie path is the one for Hippogriffia, which involves a lot of nukes, as well as moral choices like a good and bad ending...

And if you want to see some of the zanier things that can happen (Though, I recommend a less crowded part of your schedule, due to restarts); Yale Rectorate. Three different Professors can lead the charge to unite the Empire and have different effects. My personal favorite is the Necromancy Professor. Throne needs a Grover, after all. There's also Nicolas in Flowena. The Prince. Learn whether it truly is better to be feared or loved.

Personally, I’d love to see his reaction to a certain Communist New Mareland path…

Or just use console commands to fix the focus tree if needed.

Yeah, maybe we should've made it clearer about how Emergency Measures operate. In our defence, this path was made under incredible amounts of crunch, as we had to throw out the previous version of it entirely and rebuild it nearly from the ground up very close to the deadline for the River Fed update.

Yeah, basically bug ireland.

That's basically the idea behind large empires, like Rome or Russia. Barbarians are raiding our cities? Conquer them. We're neighbours with even more barbarians now? Subjugate them too.

They are gonna learn our pacifist costumes .... BY FORCE (Bender, Futurama)

This is still a amazing name

​@@Ashley-the-foxthe birds are freaking fascist. Funniest shit I've ever seen.

Koja sam ja budala, nisam to skuzio 🤣

I did know, I was just waiting for someone else to point it out, let the community speak.

so this area is basically yugoslavia / literally the balkans

@@De4thHunter117 i dunno

Was Jugoslavia a federation?

It truly does have some the best scripted events as well. Generally one the best polished mods for HOI4.

The show only has the Equestrian continent for the most part, so the lore in this mod is largely expanded and not cannon.

Dude legit appeared in half of my play throughs in this mod xd

I mean It looks like cadence is doing her job! And we all know shining is the Laughing stock of the royal guard

Is…that not how it’s supposed to go?

​@@historyofeverythingpodcast Twilight: ITS SUPPOSED TO! rainbow: WTF!?

Wait wtf dude how did you got here??? I just yesterday watched your video on rant between Laserpig and that asshole, truely a treat to watch XD

@@koneser8197 Historians circle eachother. I am lurking

@@AnimarchyHistory An Aussie Watcher in the dark... But besides that, have you found out about the mod thanks to Stak or have you seen it before that?

@@koneser8197 Stak introduced me to this mod. Haven’t tried it. Not sure I want too :/

@@AnimarchyHistory Understandable mate,I started playing it roughly 2 years ago for a meme, stayed unironically for writing XD Stories and campaigns are worth checking out if you can survive the cringe exposure at the begining

Semantics you know?

If only Ukraine used him as a national hero instead of Bandera.

​@@Gustav_Kuriga they do though

@@waldo8619 Less and less over the all years of independence. His unification Ukraine with Russia is an act too inconvenient for the modern Ukrainian authorities. They much more like people uniting with the Third Reich.

wasn't he the one responsible for the second-worst massacre of Jews in history, second only to the actual Holocaust?

​@@AtticusKarpenteroh, yes, unification... that how you call a violation of alliance and illegal annexation, cause that's what it in fact was. Hetmanat only signed an alliance agreement, but you know russians are russians, they ALWAYS violate every single agreement!

Friendship is magic and magic is heresy

And imagination just stood and watched

@@weteyesoceanmachine89 Same!

Where's the contradiction?

For real. Once you play Equestria at War, especially if you plan on doing late game global conquests, you get spoiled by how well optimized it is. As much as I love Kaiserreich and OWB, it's painful going back to playing those mods and having the game turn to molasses before you can finish a campaign.

​@Namika Same with Kaiserredux. I like the greatly expanded options but my God does it run like shit.

Seriously I mean games like stellaris basically FORCE YOU TO DESTROY WORLDS just to save frames

Aaaaaaaand, now i have to do it and lose more braincells

No, thank you my friend

Yes, that's why there is no actual cavalry in the mod

It is being developed actually
