Caminus, a cybertronian colonial world in a fragile balance. Caminus: direct heir of Cybertron
Caminus is one of the colonies established during the golden age of Cybertronian expansion, long before war consumed the universe.
- Founded to preserve stability.
- Designed as an alternative to Cybertron.
- It has a highly structured company.
Unlike Cybertron, ravaged by conflicts between Optimus Prime and Megatron , Caminus long escaped open warfare.
An advanced civilization, built on order and continuity. Why Caminus resembles neither the Autobots nor the Decepticons
Where Cybertron was torn apart by opposing ideologies, Caminus developed around:
- political stability,
- strict adherence to hierarchies,
- Distrust of extremists.
This initial neutrality explains why Caminus did not immediately join the major conflicts depicted in the Transformers film storyline .
When the war finally catches up with Camino
No Cybertronian colony can remain isolated forever. With the intensification of the war, Caminus becomes a strategic prize.
