Celestia ruled for many years alone, wise and incorruptible.

Luna knows that there is always a chance to fail and go against he wishes of the public, even if you believe it for their own good.

There must be a new government, a new country, free from the whims of a monarch who can no longer trust themselves with absolute power.

But Luna will not start a revoloution. She will not take land by force. There are unsettled lands that can be colonised by anyone who would follow her. But first she must find her followers.

(A/N: I noticed there were a lot of New Lunar Republic fics around, but just about all of them involved some kind of revoloution or war with Celestia. With this fic I want to show another way such a state could come about. As of S4, with the Elements of Harmony no longer there to contain Luna should she turn evil once more, I think Luna would begin thinking of ways to limit herself, and so this fic was born)
