After the war, Equestria is only a little bit safer than an Equestria at war. There are logistical concerns, especially concerning the Love harvest. Rebellions and dissidents, especially concerning the Equestrian Liberation Front. Worst of all, politics.

All of this, the new governor of the Canterlot Commissariat must balance with his own ideals of how to bring an embattled and war torn nation into a prosperous, peaceful future.

An empire spread too thin, militarized to the utmost, must contend with a nation at relative peace-- and a war fought not on battlefields, but in the hearts and minds of her citizens.
