## Etymology

Cybertron is an old and ancient planet dating back millions of years ago to the big Star Empires of old as a War Factory that covered the planet. Until the Mortem hit the planet with a EMP frying the planets main AI system. More problems were adding in the long period of shut down the planet went under causing ruin to the planet and it's main systems. Modern Cybertron is home to a race of intelligent cybernetic organisms. Who call them self Cybertronians, with an ability to transform into a alt-mode to aid in movement. Modern Cybertron is ruled by the Cybertronian High Council made up of 13 seated members who are unknown to the regular Cybertronians.

## History

-- 890,000 years ago: AI Planetary unit Alpha-Zulu 13 Reboots after going into emergency shutdown following [DATA MISSING]. System diagnostics show that Maintenance, Repair, Industry, Power systems are all below 10% in function, with many database errors. Alpha-Zulu 13 enters into emergency power mode shutting down many non-important functions and puts all power into the stabilization of main emergency nuclear reactors, this takes about 5,000 years to fully repair the emergency power modes.

-- 887,000 years ago: To prevent further emergency shut downs Alpha-Zulu 13 builds a complex of emergency power banks are build in an up-armored core using a highly energy liquid as a medium.

-- 879,000 years ago: Using both the emergency power banks and reactors Alpha-Zulu 13 uses the repair drones it as to work on repairing base Maintenance drone factories, then Industry drones.

-- 867,000 years ago: After some time of repairing the planet and getting much of the base systems online Alpha-Zulu 13 finishes it base systems stabilization and begins to build up it other systems.

-- 450,000 years ago: The asteroid 1994XF04 hits Cybertron the asteroid does little damage to the repaired systems, however, the impact does cause a reordering of Alpha-Zulu 13's objectives and begins to build the Cybertron Orbital Defense Network, work is slow.

-- 478,000 years ago: Alpha-Zulu 13 looking though it's databases sees uncovers data files for other species on other planets, it begins to put together it's own species for contact with these unknown.

-- 445,000 years ago: Alpha-Zulu 13 builds the Vector Sigma super computer to serve as a link between it and the soon to be built transformers and their after-life.

-- 434,000 years ago: The Cybertron Orbital Defense Network is finished.

-- 420,000 years ago: Seeking to watch more then take an active roll in it's creations AZ-13 Buries itself deep into Cybertron, however, it still maintains an active link with much of Cybertron to watch the transformers develop.

-- 380,000 years ago: The first group of transformers are made an emerge from the creation vats, in what will become Icon. From this group of roughly a hundred transformers 13 become the defacto leaders of Cybertron, forming the Cybertron High council.

-- 320,000 years ago: As more Transformers began to fill out the complex of Icon much of the population moves using the mag-rails and their alt-modes to move to the next great complex near Icon they name it Pax Mechica.

-- 280,000 years ago: Within the complex of Icon which has now largely become a research and learning complex. The discovery of the Great Icon Hall of Records is made containing a well of information and records of organics in nearby star systems. Along with much technological data, but due to a lack of repairs and some interference by AZ-13, much of the data is corrupted, missing or, encrypted.

-- 276,000 years ago: The transformers began to fill out the rest of the planet founding the complexes of Kaon, Praxis, and Polyhex. AZ-13 recovering some of it's base directives begins to modify the complexes for defensive fighting.

-- 178,000-96,000 years ago: With which of Cybertron settled, Cybertron sets up bases on their two moon and the greater star system.

-- 4,000 years ago: AZ-13 makes contact with the High council to assist in preparing for possible threats, however, the council is slow to act.

--??? years ago: The High council orders the setup and deployment of a recon unit for the planet of Titan in planning for future threats.

--??? years ago: The Vanguard attack Titan in order to assist the planet two teams of air combat units are deployed to Titan to covertly assist the planet in their fight.

## **Geography**

The innermost moon of the Cybertron planetary system, Artemis, serves as the gateway to Cybertron for materials and supplies for rebuilding the planet. However, a gateway is not the only purpose that Artemis serves. Artemis is also a major industrial and Military center for Defending Cybertron. While the focal point for the defense of Cybertron is the planet itself, Artemis holds many Command and Control Centers, Orbital defense guns, and other systems to allow for the moon to be fully capable of defending itself without support for a long time. Aiding this is that Artemis has meters of Metal Plating, which hardened the moon from Orbital fires and attacks.

Hecate is the main off world Research center of the Cybertronian state, host to a number of sites for the development of new technologies and equipment. While not as developed in it’s industry as Cybertron or even Artemis, Hecate still holds enough industry to be able to produce in mass any new technologies for mass scale testing before going into production on Cybertron or Artemis.

Nicknamed Sliversong, officially known as Section 442, of the Cybertionian moons ff Artemis is the loud military center, Selene is its quiet sister; also home to military centers and control nodes like its bigger sister. Selene is home to the information collection nexus of the Planet System and the main base for Unit 131. Home to plenty of deep-range scanners and sensors, the moon itself is capable of detecting a large range of transmission and signatures while outputting very little in the way of being detected. Another special capability of the moon is a direct line of communion with Cybertron due to a quantum entanglement based Comms array as well as a connection linked to AZ-13 directly, allowing for AZ-13 to maintain a consent connection to the moon.

Cyberion is the smallest and the least industrialized moon out of the system, mainly due to the inner areas of the system not having filled out and the spillover making its way to the moon. However, Cyberion is capable of generating its industry and supporting the Cybertronian state without being a drain on the rest of the system.

## Demographics

### Population

The Dominion of Cybertron is home to Cybertronians, who are a cybernetic species comprised of interchangeable nanomachines which manipulate electromagnetic fields to allow for them to change their shape at will, while they can change into anything, it is very common for most Cybertronians to stick to one appearance. Cybertronians are a naturally resilient if complex species, with an ability to repair themselves absorbing via metallic materials, and in turn, turn it into more of itself, giving them a limited healing factor. However at a point it is much better suited for a Cybertronian to go into for more comprehensive repairs. While Cybertronians will exist with a main body where what can be called a soul is stored along with most of what makes them, them. It is to be noted that all Cybertronians exist as a combination of nanomachines both within and without the body which support the main body, via any number of task that is needed. Along with this all Cybertronians project an controllable electromagnetic interference field which further protects them from energy weapons and electronic warfare attacks. Due to being robots, they have both power generation and storage built within their bodies, however, Cybertronians are fully capable of absorbing energy from Satellites overhead via Microwaves but this off course requires these specialty satellites which for the time only exist over Cybertron. How more Cybertronians are made is a simple if complex matter as well, within the heart of Cybertron exist vats of the base material that makes up Cybertronians which in turn a basic frame, power supply and central processor are dipped into the vat and after a time a new Cybertronian will come out and the prosses can start again.

### Education

Education is something that come very easy to the Cybertronians as they are able to process a large amount of information quickly, this comes largely from them being able to connect to information networks and go though it quickly this allows them to gain information over a short time.

## Government and Politics

### Government structure

Cybertron as three layers of government each with their own role within the Dominion of Cybertron. The first layer of government is AZ-13 or AZ who could be considered the overall ruler of Cybertron, while originally much more involved with the daily runs of Cybertron, AZ has now taken a step back on ruling the more day to day matters and focuses on the Strategic level of runnings of Cybertron namely in preparing the planet to fight the Vanguard in open conflict. Cybertron even after going through massive changes in and out it is run still largely by the directive of AZ-13, something of which AZ as been shifting off in the recent months. The next level of government allowed for with the updated Cybertronian mindscape is the High Council and it's supporting staff. Originally acting a AZ's will the high council now functions as the ministers and cabinet of Cybertron along with other bots who were in high positions before the updated Cybertronian mindscape. This new Council now acts largely independent of AZ, however, when the new government was be formed there was an agreement that the new council would act in line with AZ's wish's and act in good faith for Cybertron. The powers of the Council largely fall within the daily running of Cybertron handling matters of Internal politics, military and etc. At the lowest levels of Cybertron government are formed based on the needs of the Cybertronians in the area. So long as two conditions are meet that the leader or leaders can be recalled and they do not disregard the bots they are leading. Outside of this AZ along with bots tasked to it would oversees resource gains, confirming the information and answering resource request.

### Internal Politics

The Internal politics of Cybertron are a simple matter, much of the time is put into repairing the planet from the many cycles of ruin that cover it. Along with the highly automated nature of the planet has more of it comes back online means that resources are able to be moved to were they need to go. At this time there exist very little corruption in the planet, due to another force that only a hand full of Cybertronians know about being which Alpha-Zulu 13 the creator and Main AI of the planet hidden away in it's core. Alpha-Zulu 13 while wanting to be a unseen force still plays an active role in pushing things into place to keep both itself and it's creations strong and ready for forces unknown.

Cybertron is protected by the Cybertron War Force which is formed into the Cybertron Force and Space Fleet, which handle the Planet side and Space side fields of conflict. The War Force is largely defensive in nature not by choice due to a real lack of power projection outside of their home system. However, both forces are highly trained with the Cybertronian Strike Teams being possibly some of the best fighters in the sector,

## Economy

### Heavy Industry

Cybertron the planet serves as the beating heart of Dominion, while the planet is still being rebuild it is clear that the makings of an industrial powerhouse unlike the the constellation as seen are there. Being a cybernetic species, AI is incredibly common in use for industrial matters with parts of the planet being stripped mined wholesale, which industrial sites and cities being built right over the mines for the resources to be put to use almost instantly. Being an Cybernetic species also comes with the added bonus of needing no agriculture industry to feed the population and that all industry can be focused on raw industrial goods or war materials, which allows an highly focused industrial base. With the biggest hold back being the repair of the planet. Another factor aiding the Dominion industry is a very little need of a civilian market for Cybertronians in turn allowing for more focus on the three areas Cybertron needs for its industrial growth, production, military and repairing efforts.

Cybertron's moons serve as a secondary industrial forge for Cybertron, with Artemis and Hecate acting as the primary industrial forges for the moons over the other outer two of Selene and Cyberion. Much like their mother planet, all of the moons make the most of solar energy, even more so with a lack of atmosphere to dilute the sunlight coming in. Along with a lack of gravity this make the moons excellent forges to ship resources and products off the moons. All of the moons are home to massive industrial forges which make use of a number of different techniques including but not limited to Solar kilims and nuclear forges. To feed these production sites large amounts of simple mining drones are used to strip mine the moons for resources along with more resources being feed from outside of the planetary system.

### Energy Generation

Energy production for Cybertron is the most advance in the Gothic Constellation with the primary source of power generation for Cybertron coming from Cybertron's home star. Beginning in 2098 Cybertron began the production of a Dyson Swarm around it's home star, some of which is ongoing. Cybertron also makes use of power satellites which convert solar energy into a microwave which is then beamed down to the areas of which power is needed allowing for instantaneous and unlimited power to wherever is needed on Cybertron. This is allowed due to most of planet and industrial areas being covered in a special wired antenna which covers the upwards facing surfaces of the planet. Cybertron does make use of other forms of power generation that are on the planet itself, including Nuclear power along with limited geothermal power. Another common theme in Cybertronian power generation for it's nuclear reactors is to use largely unshielded reactors, covering the planet in a small amount but present radiation field, which industry and Cybertronian's can draw more power from. However, most industry is driven by the energy of the home star and it is an almost unlimited power source. Which such a reliance on the Sun, there is an incredible amount of energy storage all over the planet to prevent any energy flow cut off to the planet in case of attack.
