	Established by [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity\|Optimus Prime]] in an attempt to introduce a more democratic form of [[Transformer government\|government]] for [[Cybertron (planet)\|Cybertron]], the '''Grand Convocation''' is a gathering of representatives from several groups that that are neither [[Autobot]] nor [[Decepticon]]. Their main goal is the restoration of power and civil services to the tattered cities of Cybertron, which sounds great in theory, but in practice they're all out for themselves and can't agree on anything.
