What are the politics of Equestria?
A simple one: "fuck you, it's a cute show about pastel colored horses, get back to /pol/ and stay there"

I imagine the Empire is run by a senate that represent different territories around Equestria, with Celestia serving as the "official" head of state, even though in practice her role is more of a respected advisor.
Neighzi Reich of Equestria. Princesses are puppets and actual ruler is aryanne. Explains zebra isolation. Zecora broke out of camp

a Diarchy without a legislative body
So a complete diarchy?
It appears the military swears allegiance to the rulers and not the state, quite worrying

Meritocratic monarchy with theocratic tendencies.

Capatolism and Communism

Whatever Celestia feels like. Or her sister again. She seems to delegate a lot, having nobility, and the only thing I can recall her making a decree about is Twilight having to stay in Ponyville to study the magic of friendship.
So basic monarchy where the monarch does shit all most of the time and the lands under her do things as they will. Nobility for some, mayors for others, and presumably Celestia will step in if one of the areas starts badly fucking up (or has some sort of natural disaster, like parasprites) or stops paying taxes.
I wonder if she prefers to use mild mind control magic. The crystal heart was supposed to spread feelings around all of Equestria. I wonder if she's got other toys like that hiding around. It would make letting things go their own way much more likely to work.

That's economics, not politics.

Same bullshit

Cranky shows us that Friendship is optional, but Harmony is mandatory.

Absolute monarchy/diarchy, depending on what responsibilities Luna has. There seems to have been no internal challenge to Celestia's rule aside from NMM, and as far as the show goes Celestia seems to be the one member of the legislative and executive aspects of her gov't.
