 * facepalm* PROTECTORATES and AUTONOMOUS REGIONS imply war. There'd be no other reason for Equestria to give autonomy to the Empire. My point was that the Empire is independent, but not a protectorate. Also, pony war could mean ponies waring against others, just like in Over a barrel, where ponies were fighting bisons.
