Might be so, I think Equestria is quasi-Steampunk.

It's probably pretty basic, there seems to be few traces of industrialization in the one big city we've seen so far (Manehattan). Either that, or it's just limited to a few cities.

At first, I thought medieval, but it's more late 1800's, early 1900's.

Industry might be a relatively new thing but there is no industrial revolution yet.
I would like it to expand so things like cars could be invented. How cool would that be? Ponies driving motor cars.

It's hard to determine the Equestrian tech level. Unlike avatar: the last airbender, it's easy to figure out. It looks similar to Asia in the mid 19th century
I guess Schizio-tech can best describe the MLP world. We are unsure because the show is unsure. It's basically fantasy and magic.

You should be glad you don't work for her. She's always dropping pencils that roll under the cabinets and I have to get down and fish them out. Butterhooves...
