Author's Notes:

ATTENTION!

This chapter doesn't feature any action or character development whatsoever. It just explains a few things.

I guess some of you might wondered what Andromalius will do once he is a ruler. He has something planned. Some great-scale plans, to be precise.

You may skip this chapter entirely if you're not interested in reading about country development.

Andromalius and the rest of the group, excluding Rainbow Dash, rested. The hell stallion was waiting for his sword to be made, and others just made themselves comfortable.

Twilight Sparkle was lying on her sleeping bag, reading a book. Applejack was trying to get asleep, but often glanced at Andromalius. Pinkie Pie was already sleeping soundly in her sleeping bag, and Fluttershy was lying with her eyes fixed on the hell stallion with clear fear in them. Inanna was just lying on her belly, relaxing.

"Andromalius," the succubus addressed Andromalius telepathically. "What ideas do you have? Like, what are you going to do once you take the throne?"

"Actually, I though a lot about it." the hell stallion replied, looking at her. "I have many ideas... Though, to properly show them to you, we should be in a dream. There, I'll be able to conjure whatever image I need to show you. Besides, the bearers of the Elements shouldn't know about my plans. And I doubt they have any interest in it anyway. Besides Twilight Sparkle, maybe."

"Alright, let's do it."

A few minutes later, in the realm of dreams.

Andromalius and Inanna stood in the green field, surrounded by plants and trees.

"So," Andromalius cleared his throat. "I have many different ideas and plans... I'm going to show them to you.

"First of all, the government system. In my personal belief, there must be a ruler that has complete control over everything, and has his bloodline established as dynasty. Those who are being prepared to rule from their birth are the best rulers. However, it all should be done right, otherwise we'll get everything messed up.

"So, as a ruler who has all control, I'll be able to do anything that I need. However, before making any decision, I will study the subject at hand. Ask specialists, those who have been doing their job longer than I do mine. Thus, I'll be able to make efficient decisions." Andromalius explained.

"This seems rather logical if done right." Inanna nodded. "But I thought humans prefer democracy. At least, it seemed so from your memories."

"Well, I have some thoughts about that, too." the hell stallion nodded. "Remind me, how many of demons are there?"

"About ten, maybe twenty thousand... No, that is only my clan." Inanna tapped her chin. "Actually... I don't really know. Such information was always kept secret. My guess is that there are about four hundred thousand demons overall."

"So, there will be one large city." Andromalius replied. "Although... How many floors does an average building have?"

"I think three."

"That will be a rather large city to control." the hell stallion scratched his chin. "I guess that there are numerous towns scattered throughout Hell?"

"Yep." Inanna nodded. "Something like that."

"Alright, then, talks about democracy will have to wait a bit before I figure out how to unite all towns efficiently." Andromalius cleared his throat. "So, enough of the politics, for now. Let's talk about the people.

"I need to create efficient social infrastructure that will provide everything necessary to create a thriving society: educational system, medical system, labor system... Pretty much everything.

"So, the educational system — it must provide knowledge for everyone, absolutely free. Those who are willing to study and are reaching great heights in it should be rewarded. And choice must always be given. Some would like to create technological wonders, others would like to delve into the historical subjects, and some would like to create art. Education must be forced, but not too greatly. There must be a basis of each subject taught to everyone, and then they will decide where they see themselves."

There were created images of educational establishments with happy teachers that found themselves liking teaching their students; different auditories with equipment that would help to study subjects better; happy students that willingly go to receive knowledge.

"Yeah, we don't have anything like a good educational system." Inanna sighed. "You make a good point."

"The medical system must also be free for everyone. Curing any and all illnesses is a must, treating every ill person equally is another must, never minding their financial or social state. All lives matter. Also, people must be taught basics of first aid: how to stop bleeding, how to reanimate, those things."

Andromalius summoned images of pristine hospitals with friendly nurses and doctors, the most advanced equipment ever seen, quickly recovering patients that had no complaints to make.

"Well, we do now this and that about medicine." Inanna nodded. "Though, we do need more."

"So, about labor system. There must be laws made about labor, including banning child labor, slavery; creating a set of laws that would protect both the employer and employee; work ethics, and so on."

He summoned images of happy workers who had decent pay to afford travelling, hobbies, and being happy overall.

Andromalius cleared his throat.

"There are many subjects that I must cover." he sighed. "It's rather weary... So, about industry as a whole.

"Anything must be made by standards, which will ensure the quality of the products. Any and all facilities, factories, etc. must be ecological. It doesn't matter in Hell, as there isn't much ecology in the first place, but we must not ruin the surface. Pollution increases chances of getting sick, it ruins the beauty of nature and turns it into something as lifeless as Hell itself. It must be prevented at all costs."

Andromalius summoned images of big factories that produced much smoke that clouded the whole sky in its grayness.

"There must be laws created about treating nature right, too. No animal cruelty, no mindless usage of resources, no wastes; everything must be done perfectly and as less damaging to nature as possible. It will be hard, yes, but the result is worth it."

Everything returned to its colorful and peaceful state.

"It must be that everyone understood why such laws are made. Thus, they won't blindly follow them with fear of breaking them, but they will understand that a bright future is build through the use of such laws. They aren't made to restrict but to guide everyone into something better.

"There must be connections established between my country and others: safe travel and trading routes, cooperation for the betterment of each country, eradication of all discrimination between each and every one."

An image appeared — a pony, a minotaur, a griffin, a changeling, a zebra, a yak, a goat, a demon, a horse — all sapient beings stood together, and connections between them were seen: partners, friends, lovers. And none had any hate or fear in their eyes.

"So, I want to creat utopia." Andromalius finished his explanation. "No one has done it before me. And I will, no matter how hard it will be. I heard that utopia is unreachable. But I heard that from humans — time to find out how wrong they were."
