I now have some headcanons for the Transformers One universe before I take a break from Transformers content for a couple months in the new year because I don’t wanna get fatigue:
- Iacon used to be the capital of a United Cybertron.
- A Senate (Parliament? I’m still kinda new to the franchise are the Primes a kind of elected Monarchy except the elector is the planet or is it kinda like a divine right to rule except for real?) made most of the descisions, especially domestically.
- The Primes set strict legal limits on themselves in case any of them got power-hungry. They mostly handled any non-domestic descisions, and even they they needed the Senate’s approval.
- Sentinel ‘removed’ the old Senate.
- Optimus sets up a new Senate after Megatron’s banishment and fixes whatever problems it had before.
- The other parts of Cybertron split into their own states, most of them being oppressive.
- Optimus’ actions lead to a series of Revolutions, and they all meet up to reunite Cybertron.
- Megatron takes over one of these states by force and shows up at the meeting - and that’s where the real trouble begins!
