Line 6:
Not much is known of the time before [[Equestria]] was established as a country by the [[Earth Pony tribe|Earth Pony]], [[Pegasus tribe|Pegasus]], and [[Unicorn tribe]]s. The territory that would eventually be known as Equestria was inhabited by {{FIM|Ponies}} previously, but it was also ruled over by the tyrannical [[Sheep]] {{FIM|Grogar}}. According to at least one account, he was known to have attempted an assault on the ancient city of [[Cloudsdale]], which was met by an army of {{FIM|Unicorn}}s led by [[Gusty the Great]]. Eventually, Gusty also succeeded in stealing Grogar's [[Bewitching Bell]], stripping him of his stolen magical power and driving him out.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|A Flurry of Emotions}}</ref><ref>{{CAR|FIM|The Beginning of the End}}</ref><ref>{{CAR|FIM|Frenemies}}</ref>

A number of ponies subsequently took up residence in what would become known as the "[[Old Lands]]"; whether these were incorporated into the future Equestria is unclear. Eventually, growing animosity between the three tribes attracted [[Windigo]]s, resulting in a winter that threatened the livelihood of all three groups. [[Chancellor Puddinghead]], [[Commander Hurricane]], and [[Princess Platinum]] thus each set out to find a new homeland for their particular tribe, accompanied by [[Smart Cookie]], [[Private Pansy]], and [[Clover the Clever]]. [[King Thrace]], later founder of the [[Thracian]] tribe and first ruler of the island of [[Thrace]], would also travel in this search. By his own account, however, after the other six had located and established Equestria, he was rejected and forced to seek out a new home for his own followers.<ref>{{CAR|FIM|Hearth's Warming Eve}}</ref><ref>{{C|FoF|2}}</ref>▼
