	Five years later, the Solstar Order had destroyed the Wraith homeworld within the [[Dark Nebula]]; as a result, surviving pockets of Wraith resistance had begun to scatter across the galaxy, threatening to encroach on Galactic Council space. Needing safe passage so that their Knights could pursue the Wraiths, the Solstar Order requested a diplomatic meeting with the Council. The Solstar order opted to bring their Cybertronian Knight cadet [[Stardrive]] along, to prove to the robophobic Council that they were capable of keeping Cybertronians "in their place." {{storylink\|Shining Armor issue 1\|Shining Armor #1}}		Five years later, the Solstar Order had destroyed the Wraith homeworld within the [[Dark Nebula]]; as a result, surviving pockets of Wraith resistance had begun to scatter across the galaxy, threatening to encroach on Galactic Council space.

	The [[Milky Way\|galaxy]] is a big place, filled with thousands of intelligent spacefaring ~~civilizations - and~~ ''somebody'' needs to try and make sure everyone sticks to the rules. The '''Galactic Council''' has taken up that responsibility: a vast coalition representing thousands of intelligent biological species. A peacekeeping force first and foremost, the Galactic Council negotiates non-aggression pacts between its various member worlds, and employs a mighty navy to make sure everyone honors said pacts. The Council has other divisions related to civilian life, mostly notably its academic arm [[Curricula]].

	The primary goal of the Council would be somewhat easier if it weren't for [[Transformer\|a pernicious race of mechanoids]] and their [[Great War (G1)\|petty conflict]], which has ruined entire planets and gotten countless innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire. This understandable grievance has seen the Galactic Council permanently blacklist the Cybertronian race from ever joining them. The devastation wrought by the Cybertronian war would shape the ''modus operandi'' of the Council significantly: member worlds pay the Council a chunk of their natural resources for protection from the Cybertronian menace, and amidst the rank and file of the Council's military, anti-mechanical sentiment has flourished into full-blown anti-Cybertronian racism.

	The Consortia weren't the only ones to break away from the Council over its history; the [[Maulers]], an extremist faction with similar robophobic motivations, also split off from the Council at some point.

	By this time, the Council shared a border with several other galactic powers, including the [[Solstar Order]] ~~- a~~ power that was engaged in its own war against the [[magic]]-wielding [[Dire Wraith]]s. The two governments shared a border known as the [[Gray Area]], though both parties generally were happy to ignore one another.

	In the mid-19th century, a Galactic Council warship intercepted a [[Caminus (planet)\|Camien]] vessel carrying a cargo of [[protoform]]s; mistaking the vessel for a Cybertronian ship, the crew pursued it into the Gray Area and successfully shot it down. When the Solstar [[Space Knight]] [[Rom]] arrived to question their actions, the Council, not wanting to provoke a war with their neighbors, opted to flee.

	The Council subsequently sent a delegation to meet the Solstar Order at the space station ''[[Orchid Crossing]]'' above the planet [[Xetaxxis]]. While ''en route'' to the negotiations, the Council vessel was captured and slain by a [[Decepticon]]/[[Dire Wraith]] alliance, who sought to steal a Solstar [[energon synthesizer]]. The Dire Wraiths disguised themselves as the delegates, while [[Astrotrain (G1)\|Astrotrain]] ferried them to the space station by using a Council shuttle disguise. As a drifting Council ship would be blamed on the Cybertronians, Starscream ordered two of his troops to destroy it but they were intercepted by the Autobots who hacked the ship's computer so they could follow the Decepticons. {{storylink\|Shining Armor issue 2\|Shining Armor #2}} Following the subsequent Wraith attack and the near-destruction of Xetaxxis, the Galactic Council declined the alliance, stating that they had no desire to become embroiled in yet another war and that they would deal with any Wraith incursions themselves. {{storylink\|Shining Armor issue 5\|Shining Armor #5}}		The Council subsequently sent a delegation to meet the Solstar Order at the space station ''[[Orchid Crossing]]'' above the planet [[Xetaxxis]].

	Even after the war was considered over, the Council wouldn't return the Autobots' calls, which [[Starscream (G1)/IDW ~~Generation 1~~ continuity\|Starscream]] joked was at least partly because of the unimpressive housing situation on [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]]. {{storylink\|Stick Together}}		Even after the war was considered over, the Council wouldn't return the Autobots' calls, which [[Starscream (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Starscream]] joked was at least partly because of the unimpressive housing situation on [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]]. {{storylink\|Stick Together}}

	The planet [[Theophany]] was annexed by the Galactic Council following its abandonment, leading to a conflict between the Autobot ship ''[[Lost Light]]'' and Council peacekeeping ship ''[[The Benign Intervention]]'' when it arrived on the planet in search of the [[Circle of Light]]. Upon learning that [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/IDW ~~Generation 1~~ continuity\|Ultra Magnus]], who was held in very high regard by the Council for his unwavering dedication to the law, was on board, captain [[K'gard]] gave him an offer to join them. {{storylink\|Primus: You, Me, and Other Revelations\|You, Me, and Other Revelations}}		The planet [[Theophany]] was annexed by the Galactic Council following its abandonment, leading to a conflict between the Autobot ship ''[[Lost Light]]'' and Council peacekeeping ship ''[[The Benign Intervention]]'' when it arrived on the planet in search of the [[Circle of Light]].
