Roughly 1000 years ago, King Sombra took over the Crystal Empire using his powers over crystals. Defeated by Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, he was turned to living shadow and buried beneath the tundra. His final act of defiance was to cause the Crystal Empire to disappear. Upon the empire's return, it was shown that he had placed a lingering amnesia spell that prevent the crystal ponies from any part of their lives before his rule. He had also destroyed information about how he could be defeated and placed numerous traps as deterrent, including a door that led to the greatest fears of the one who opened it. King Sombra was eventually defeated for good when the Crystal Heart was found and the citizens were roused to use the light and love inside their hearts to destroy him.
