Iacon The one time capital city-sate of Cybertron. Planetary Capital during the days when Cybertron was ruled by the Overlords, Iacon was the largest and most powerful state on the planet before the Civil War began. Ruled by a council of elders, headed by a High Chancellor, Iacon was the centre of Autobot resistence to the Decepticons until it fell to the warlord Trannis one million years after the Ark crashed on Earth. Its most famous citizen was Optimus Prime.
Tarn and Vos Tarn was a powerful militaristic city-state ruled by Shockwave and was Iacon’s main rival prior to the War. Vos was similar in nature but ruled by a military junta whose figurehead was Starscream. Both cities were destroyed in a brief but vicious war that began with Vosian agents blowing up Tarn’s main power station. This was intended to start an Tarn-Iacon war but the agents were discovered while planting false evidence. The two cities launched proton missiles (Cybertron’s doomsday weapon) and were utterly destroyed. The survivors of Tarn together with their Vosian enemies were forged into the Decepticon army by Tarn’s champion gladiator Megatron.
Polyhex Capital sate of Decepticon ruled Cybertron.
