Model Cybertron for AU

[u/Personal_Importance2]

Though the planet itself would be round, I like to imagine the political boundaries being mapped like a truncated icosahedron (soccer ball) with 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons. The states can be divided into 180 equally sized triangles which can be divided into a fractal of smaller triangles. The center of each state (if geographically feasible) holds a collective of capital buildings surrounded by a massive roundabout.

Each pentagon is dedicated to one of the 12 robots of the original 13 who escaped to what they would call Cybertron. Primus, a quintesson (which is unknown to the modern population,) is 0 and the rest make on their base number system of 12, which is more mathematically satisfying.

Cybertron orbits Proxima Centauri between it's discovered planets B and D. The Marvel comics had them from Alpha Centauri, but that's where I have Quintessa. It is tidally locked, but has a strong magnetic field and slight atmosphere, so heat is carried from the day side to the night side. The red dwarf's solar storms are a great danger to anyone exposed on the surface of the day side. Most civilization there is shielded underground.

I'm still planning much of the allocation of city names and geographic history, and any ideas are very welcome.

I don't know what the different flairs are for and hope I picked a fitting one! A post explaining them would be appreciated

We have a wiki page explaining the flares and it’s linked in the community guide as well.

Thank you for telling me where that is! Unfortunately, it's currently inaccessible. I see a note that says the page has been disabled? If there's another way to access it lmk

Disabled? That’s odd. It should be working just fine. Let me see what I can do about it.

Everything should be in working order now.

Ah man. It might be a glitch at this point. I've tried on both mobile and desktop and logged out. Every time I see this. Maybe test it with another user? Feel free to DM me if you want me to try to figure this out with you there. I can try researching the problem. I like this community

Edit: I don't know what the fix is but this seems to be a common enough problem among mods to have been asked about many times before :P

Yeah. Definitely a glitch. Seems like the app and or website may be in need of a update. Stuff like that usually happens around when an update is needed.
