Needs more ponies.
Adding to the first person fic party.

15 years ago, an uprising in Canterlot sparked a chain of events that led to the largest civil war Equestria had ever seen. Now, with the war long over, acceptance of the ponies’ new [division] had begun to set in.
It was your average day in Ponyville, sans unicorns. Even with the total absence of a species, the past seven years haven’t been much different. Not many unicorns had ever lived in Ponyville anyway, with the main population being earth ponies and pegasi. The history just hasn’t been in the unicorns’ favor here, as is reflected in local holidays like Winter Wrap Up. A few shops had been closed since they abandoned us. They decided they were too good for us earth pony-folk and pegasi and they got up and out and declared independence. Even the many unicorns that didn’t support it were forced, by not-so-peer-pressure and propaganda from their future rulers with family lines that can be traced back thousands of years in Canterlot.
They’re fascists.
Of course, not all of them. But for the most part, they’re fascists.
I can’t give up hope that Twilight Sparkle and Rarity still have access to their elements and can fix this mess these selfish, stuck-up unicorns caused. It’s the only hope for a re-unification of Equestria… But it’s been fifteen years… Fifteen years in what can only be under corrupt thinking and oppressive rule by the unimaginably wealthier. I can’t imagine what it has done to them. Are they still alive? Have they spoken out against their government, banished and thrown into a dungeon? And even if Equestria was united again, the unicorns wouldn’t be viewed in the same way again.
I just wish, for the sake of all ponykind, they hadn’t chosen to have done such a stupid thing.
