210 bn The Griffin kingdoms declare war on all Pony nations (Zebrabwa, Equestria, Solstice, and Nighpon.) and send a fleet to invade Equestria where instead of being met with the Equestrian armies on the beach, they were met with a Solstainen Naval fleet off the coast. They never reached the beach.
