Description
NOTE- Moved to Scraps.At this point, I think everyone has seen these photos of the Walmart posters and/or they've been recreated and reposted to the moon and beyond. These posters are NOT my work, I claim no ownership, copywrite, or responsibility. They're just amature photos of awesome, amazing, absolutely incredible posters. my goal was just to give everyone a chance to see and enjoy them.
The other three beautiful posters were designed by AllSpark Forums user Nayuki-[link] This map, however, was designed by some other extremely talented and wholly awesome artist! If I find out who it is, I will post the info here.
For an even BIGGER HD version of the map here's a link to the file in my Dropbox. Be warned, it's a nearly 10MB file, so YONDER TO BANDWIDTH- [link]

...I always imagined Evertree forest to be north of Ponyville slightly to the west of Canterlot... Anyways it is a good map... I always wondered what lies beyond their seas though... Like Zecora's homeland...

How are you so amazing? No, seriously. HOW.

I thought they were more towns and cities in Equestria

Lower left corner:
DISTANCE NOT TO SCALE
... that isn't very helpful then... and I agree - Manehatten is much too far east.
π: 0 β©: 2
I see the problem with not all of the towns being there but seriously, the scale?? What are you planning to visit?
π: 0 β©: 1
Isn't distance important for fan authors? It's not very useful if the distances are entirely meaningless, except maybe to orient the towns (which doesn't help a whole lot).

I see your point, but I hope you know Equestria is not real...you cannot make a "scaled map" of a place that doesn't exist (is an oxymoron)
π: 0 β©: 1
An oxymoron is something like 'ordered chaos' 'definite maybe', and other such phrases that involve two things that contradict one another.
You can have a scale map of a fictional place, it just doesn't mean as much as it doesn't really have to be adhered to. Example:
I imagine a kingdom of Pytiaj, it is a square with sides 4 miles long (tis a small kingdom). There are trees that line one side, mountains line the opposite side, and the two remaining sides are prarie. There is a manor smack in the middle of the square. You actually could draw a scale map of such an imaginary place.
π: 0 β©: 1
I beg to differ, The scale of a map is the ratio of a distance on the map to the corresponding distance on the ground. If there is not a set distance (and in this case there isn't), then a scale can't be used. And unless Hasbro (it has to be official, if not, anyone else can claim their map is to scale as well) comes up with a consistent set of distances for their cities a scaled map will not be possible.
So yeah, by definition, a scaled map cannot be made of a fictional place.

There is a country called Boxtopia. In it there is a little town and a large capital. It is (bear in mind the limits of what I can do with text) 3 times as long as it is wide. There is a large, empty field in the bottommost area, the capital in the middle, and the small town in the top. This is a map of Boxtopia, to scale:
_
|*|
|O|
|_|
The circle is the scaled size of the capital, the star is the size of the small town in Boxtopia. You can see that Boxtopia is roughly 3 times longer than it is wide, and that the capital has a larger radius than the town (again, bear in mind the limits of what I can actually do with text to make a map).
Here is another map of Boxtopia, not to scale:
_
|O|
|O|
|_|
As you can see here, the capital is portrayed as the same size as the small town - this is clearly not as accurate as the previous map, even though the overall shape of the boundaries didn't change. I could also post another, more absurd example:
_
|O|
|*|
| |
|_|
You can see here that it is grossly out of whack, clearly not to scale as described even though it is a fictional place! Are you arguing that if I re-sized Canterlot to take up 25% of this entire map, it would be equally to scale, despite that clearly not representing what we have seen? The definition is interesting... but it simply doesn't pass the common sense test.

Not to mention all the towns that is missing...

Where's Trottingham and Hoofington?
π: 0 β©: 3
Probably too small of settlements to make it on the map....
π: 0 β©: 1
I doubt they're any smaller than say, Baltimare or Vanhoover.

Maybe...maybe...just a theory.

Finally an explanation that makes sense.
π: 0 β©: 0
Exactly! They left out so many places that this can impossible be a cannon map over Equestria. People hypes for nothing...
π: 0 β©: 0
Darn, I wish I would go there! So badly!
π: 0 β©: 0
So...Canterlot is like High Hrothgar on the Throat of the World?
Anyway: Baltimare!

The greybeards lived there long ago. But then Pinkie annoyed them so much they said:
"SCREW EQUESTRIA, WE'RE GOING TO SKYRIM!"
unfortuanly, Pinkie can break the fourth wall and travel to different dimensions, so they deal with her to this day.

So that explains this...

Mhhmmm. It's only a matter of time before she reaches the Greybeards...and NOTHING will stop her.
NOTHING.

It's nice and all that there is a map but it's become obvious that the show was not written with a map in mind and that there was only a vague general idea of the geography.
From what has been shown in the show itself, there is several errors present in the map. (The valley Ponyville is shown to exist in, Manehatten is far to far and eastward, badlands again are to far and southward. etc...)
What annoys me the most though is that they were more determined to make it more or less match a map of the United States then just be original and leave the name-pun towns as name pun towns.

I'm probably missing something but I can't seem find the glorious 10MB version on Flickr. The highest res is only 1,5mb large, 2048x1351.
Halp?

pure... awesomeness
now I can be geographically correct with my comic

I'm confused. So it's Los Pegasus (Los Angeles), not Las Pegasus (Las Vegas)?
π: 0 β©: 1
In the episode R.D. does say Los Pegasus. It was supposed to also be a pony version of the phrase "from coast to coast" because R.D says "From Los Pegasus to Baltimare."

They had these at my walmart and nobody knew anything about them. I wanted one so bad but there was no price on them or anything. I talked to a manager and they told me they probably still had to put a upc on it and omg it was all kinds of trouble.

Argh! My fanon! It's like being punched in the mind!

this map is full of lies. Aj ran from manehattan to ponyville in under a day, the sonic rainboom would cover the entire country(we know it doesn't) As for Trottingham, at least they got that right. This is not accurate to the show in the least otherwise since both canterlot and apploosa are a day and night journy but canterloy is half the distance from ponyville.
π: 0 β©: 2
Um...if you did not see below on the bottom left, the map's distance is not to scale....

shhh watch what you say, the crazy brony enforces will come after you.

I'm from a team that is recreating equestria in a mod, our design team leader calls this map a lie even.
π: 0 β©: 1
lol I doubt any map will be perfect for everyone, since the show really doesn't give any time or distance info.
this map may not be the best, but it's something and that is most people want to fill in the blanks.

PixelKitties sir, that frigging flickr is not letting us download the original UltraHD file, any chance we could bother you with another download location?
π: 0 β©: 1
Agh, you're right. Looks like they removed that feature from free accounts a few months ago.
This is far more difficult than it should be. Only other things I can think of are sugarsync or skydrive, which may or may not have the same bandwidth limitations as dropbox.

What about Medifire [link] and similars...

Unless, of course, DA's own sta.sh hosting service can handle it?

So..... Trottingham is outside of Equestria?? And that's why Pipsqueak neve celebrated a Nightmare Night before? Because Nightmare Moon attack was in Equestria only, and in Pip's kingdom that wasn't a big deal at all?
That makes some sense.
About the rest of the map.... I have all my hype on the existence of a Kingdom for Griffons, and in the Frozen North.... too much potential.

Nice job with these, and thank you for scanning them! Still going to try to get the physical ones though.

I'm actually really glad that they made a cannon map. XD
