Equestria () is a fictional kingdom and the main setting of the fourth, fifth, and sixth generations of the My Little Pony toy line and media franchise, including the animated television series My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (FIM) and its spinoff My Little Pony: Pony Life. Created by Lauren Faust, the setting incorporates many elements of fantasy, including inspirations from European and Greek mythology. Equestria serves as the backdrop for the adventures of Twilight Sparkle, the main character of Friendship is Magic, and her friends, who are collectively referred to as the Mane Six. Equestria is shown to be located on a terrestrial planet, similar to Earth and hosts many intelligent, conscious, sentient and sapient creatures. Equestria's foundation is described as the result of the cooperation of unicorns, pegasi, and earth ponies. Equestria is benevolent in nature. Its society favors egalitarian love, Friendship, diplomacy, and is matriarchal. Its people, ponies, have near-mastery over their environment; earth ponies cultivate the land, pegasi stabilize seasonal weather-patterns, unicorns advance scientific research, and alicorns control the day/night cycle, creating a nation of unrivaled stability and prosperity. Although depicted as generally prosperous and peaceful, Equestria engages in conflicts with various magical and supernatural threats throughout the series. The "Bit" is the national currency of Equestria and its territories. Throughout the FIM series, Equestria is a de facto matriarchy/tetrarchy ruled by "Alicorn princesses", though this title is more akin to a de facto Queen regnant in practice, with princesses exercising wide-reaching executive authority.
