The land of Equestria is not ruled by a king or queen, but by a pair of beautiful [[Princesses Rule]]. Celestia, the elder, is responsible for raising the Sun at dawn, and the younger Luna is responsible for bringing out the night at dusk. Together, they rule the land in harmony for all the different types of ponies.

<!-- %% The Cool Horse trope applies only to horses that exist primarily to provide fast transportation for their owners. A Cool Horse is an accessory, like the High Fantasy equivalent of a Cool Car. The ponies in this show are characters unto themselves, and while they have been pulled vehicles or transported others, that is not their most defining trait. -->
* [[Cool Car|Cool Carriage]]/[[Flying Car|Flying Carriage]]: It isn't as if they ''need'' them but Celestia and Luna use their own Pegasus-drawn carriages almost always when they need to fly to certain parts of Equestria.

** Luna's sinister carriage must have been designed that way [[Just for Pun]] since another name for a funeral carriage is "Hearse", which means that Luna (A winged unicorn) is a Flying Horse on a Flying Hearse.

* [[Teleporters and Transporters]]: "Lesson Zero" revealed that Celestia can teleport at will...possibly over a far greater distance than Twilight can. She implicitly came directly from her castle, a distance Twilight is shown to match only under extreme emergency, and that only once so far. This can explain why she literally appeared out from nowhere during season 1 to deliver her advice to Twilight and friends.

* [[This Means War]]: The actions of Discord upon his return ''angered her''. Until that moment, nobody even knew she could ''get'' angry. Her explanation of what happened over 1000 years ago and what we see Discord do in the present imply she has ''very'' good reason to hate him.
