Age of Schisms

While Guardian and Alchemist Prime are credited for building and guiding the modern Cybertronian civilization, the betrayal of a Prime lead many to doubt their guidance. Some dispersed across the new planet in attempts to find their own direction. This divergence of course led to the formation of many separate city-states, each with its own values and laws. As Cybertron’s population grew so did the discord between the sovereignties. Within one particular city-state grew a cult of worshippers that slowly grew into a religion. This religion centered on the opposing pantheon of the Gods of Light, the Gods of Darkness where Unicron rules. The charismatic Zealotron commanded this flock of unaware Destrons and rose to power against the non-aligned fractioned governments. It was quickly evident that the independent states would not last unless they teamed together against this common threat and so was formed the Cybertrons with Guardian Prime as the figurehead. These actions started the second civil war for their race.
