Mostly harmless.

The planet Earth, third from the Sun in the Solar System in the Milky Way galaxy, is a world populated by a wide variety of native organic lifeforms, most notably, humans. Versions of this planet are known to exist in many dimensions within the multiverse, and it frequently becomes involved in the conflicts of the Transformers. Perhaps too frequently. Whenever something (or someone) leaves, escapes, or is otherwise ejected from Cybertron, there's a disproportionate chance it will eventually wind up on Earth.

Earth is superficially similar to the planet upon which you may reside, but has many subtle and not so subtle differences.

In some universes, Earth becomes the post-apocalyptic planet Gaea.

While in others, Earth is the planet that formed around Unicron.

Generation 1

American animated continuity

An earthling.
Other earthlings wearing clothing typical of their kind.

Around nine million years ago, the Earth was visited by the Transformers Starscream and Skyfire, but Skyfire was caught in a polar wind storm and separated from Starscream, buried in ice. Fire in the Sky Then, approximately four million years ago, the Transformers' spacecraft, the Ark, crash-landed in what would become the north-western United States, entombing the robots within in stasis. More than Meets the Eye, Part 1

Earth is home to many unusual creatures and "hidden civilizations." The underwater city of Sub-Atlantica, populated by water-breathing fish-like humanoids, gave rise to the legends of Atlantis and other sunken cities. Atlantis, Arise! Also, fire-breathing dragons existed naturally as late as the medieval era, though by the 20th century, they appeared to have died out. A Decepticon Raider in King Arthur's Court A possible descendant was a unique, reptilian creature captured by big game hunter Lord Chumley in Borneo. Prime Target Lurking almost out of sight are the strange, hidden monsters known as Inhumanoids. The Allspark Almanac II: Ask Vector Prime

Around the same time as the Transformers, Earth was ravaged by the predations of a terrorist organisation led by the sinister "Old Snake". Luckily, some real American heroes opposed them and by 2005 they'd be a distant memory. Only Human

The magma energy of the Earth's core is channeled by a series of green crystalline structures, which the Decepticons attempted to exploit in 1984, exposing a crystal shaft in the North Pole and tapping the core's energy (while, at the same time, happening upon and reactivating the body of Skyfire). Fire in the Sky Another unusual aspect of the planet is the natural existence of electrum, a metallic alloy that renders Transformers invulnerable when coated in it. The Golden Lagoon

By the year 2005, human interaction with the Transformers had resulted in an advanced level of technology worldwide, and the foundation of the Earth Defense Command, which operates a series of space stations. Saturn's moon, Titan, was colonised, and an EDC base was established on Mars, while travel between star systems was hugely enhanced by the creation of warp gates. Earthling Spike Witwicky became Earth's ambassador, first to Cybertron, and then to other alien worlds as, through the Transformers, humanity came into contact with other races. Five Faces of Darkness

Japanese animated continuity

In the expanded fiction of the additional Japanese-exclusive animated series, the existence of the sunken continents Atlantis and Lemuria was confirmed. Later, it was revealed that a small group of Autobot and Decepticon Pretenders crash-landed on the planet in the Stone Age. While the Autobots used their Pretender abilities to adopt the form of humans, the Decepticons assumed monstrous forms and were mistaken by early man as "demons." Finally defeating the Decepticons and sealing them away—within the pyramids of Giza, the ruins of Atlantis and beneath the Nazca Lines of Peru—the Autobots then integrated themselves into human society, serving as secret protectors who quietly and subtly guided the evolution of human society.

Marvel Comics continuity

Marvel's lawyers would prefer it if you ignored this.

The Ark crashed into Earth four million years ago. Already present, and the site of the first Transformer battle on Earth, was the Savage Land—a hidden jungle in Antarctica where dinosaurs still live. It is believed the Savage Land was created by another, earlier race of aliens.

Some bloke called Jesus was born over 2000 years ago, or so legend says, leading eventually to the holiday called Christmas.

In the year 1017 AD, the Autobot Navigator and his companion arrived on Earth searching for the lost Ark. Their ship landed in England and the companion would look around every few centuries, and he would be named the Man of Iron by the awed residents of Stansham; his first appearance turned the tide of a great battle.

In the 18th Century, pirates roamed the seas filling up their treasure chests. Two Autobots were sent to Earth at this time, but were seemingly rendered offline in the process; they were found and then lost by a crew of pirates.

In the 1950s, there was a war in Korea that the United States of America was involved in. Irving Witwicky was one of the United States Marine Corps sent there.

A typical example of mid-80s military forces.

By the 1980s, Earth was involved in a Cold War driven by the United States of America and the Soviet Union. The planet was also threatened by the international terrorist group Cobra, who was opposed by either America's G.I. Joe organisation and/or the international Action Force (sources disagree). There also existed a group called S.H.I.E.L.D., an American spy organisation that primarily handled the monstrous Godzilla, and otherwise seemed to have little prominence.

By a quirk of genetics, the odd human proved capable of wielding superpowers. The earliest known was a vigilante named Spider-Man who vanished after 1984 for unknown reasons, though he did clash with the Decepticons and caused Megatron to rethink how dangerous humans were.

Ba-THROOOOM!

The Autobot and Decepticon war would rage until 1991 before a brief lull; both sides would relocate their bases to multiple locations, and while often battling in America they would also strike in the United Kingdom, Peru, Canada, Mexico, Japan and Argentina. Responsibility for dealing with them in the States fell to the Intelligence and Information Institute, yet another American spy group (the 1980s was clearly a paranoid and unstable time), and their military wing RAAT. Diplomatic relations were tried early on with the President of the United States, but failed.

In 1993, the Decepticons struck Earth with overwhelming force, devastating cities and slaughtering millions, merely as a way of attracting Autobot attention. Even this was dwarfed when the Cybertronian warlord Jhiaxus blew up San Francisco the following year. The long-term impact this had on Earth is unknown.

In an alternate timeline, the bulk of the Autobot/Decepticon war moved off-world in 1990 and a small Earthforce remained to contain two duelling Decepticon factions (who later united). The Autobot base was located in Canada, where an abnormally high number of polar bears roam the wilderness; the animals have even become bold enough to approach the Autobot base.

In several alternate timelines where Unicron attacked in 2006, the Autobots were allowed to build a city on Earth and it would become a major location for scattered Autobots to regroup after Decepticon conquest of Cybertron. Diplomatic relations were strong between human and Autobot, and futuristic technology such as weather-control machines were gifted to mankind.

In yet another timeline, the Americas were brutally conquered after 2005 by Galvatron. In response, the continent of Europe has united under a European Crisis Coalition.


Dreamwave Comics continuity

Transformers/G.I. Joe

The Transformers had arrived on the planet under unknown circumstances, and a temple on the Fera Islands had been built around their remains. A dangerous faction known as Cobra, however, would discover them in 1938, and so erupted World War II: Cobra and the Decepticons taking on everyone else, and overrunning Europe. The threat caused the United States to enter the war in 1939, creating the world's first modern special forces unit in G.I. Joe. A Joe/Autobot joint operation would end the war by defeating the Decepticons, but at the cost of the Autobots all dying.

In 1985, Cobra would resurface as a terrorist organisation. The remains of the Transformers would be used for a massive arms race.

IDW comics continuity

Earth was one of many planets seeded as part of Shockwave's energon initiative. It is the only world where this plan succeeded, leaving it rich in Ultra-Energon ore, which can be used as a mighty power source. Both Shockwave and the Dynobot tactical unit were left buried on Earth.

A brief, unauthorised Decepticon landing on Earth saw the eruption of Mount St Helen in 1984. In an investigation, two Decepticons were salvaged by the underfunded government organisation Skywatch; they not only used this find to get more funding, they reprogrammed them to use them as agents.

Another unauthorised landing, this time by the rogue Scorponok, occurred at an unknown point in time; he made contact with a number of amoral private corporations, leading to the formation of the Machination.

The planet was officially invaded by the Decepticons sometime during 2002, presumably for the purposes of harvesting its local resources; a detachment of Autobots, led by Prowl, followed them in an attempt to thwart their aims. Decepticon agents were placed in multiple areas, such as the United States government and the separatists of Brasnya. However, the recent discovery of Ore-13 by Starscream's team prompted the treacherous lieutenant to break protocol in an effort to rebel against Megatron. Autobot agent Ratchet also broke protocol by initiating direct contact with three humans, who proved invaluable in gaining intelligence on Starscream's operations.

The discovery of Ore-13 threatened to make Earth the new front line in the war between the Autobots and Decepticons. Megatron carried on the standard strategem of igniting conflict between humans to weaken their kind for conquest, but Autobot interference made him escalate things drastically. The Transformers became known to humanity, with the Machination attempting to exploit this.

About a year on from this, everyone suddenly forgot they knew about the Transformers, while a disgruntled Sunstreaker made a deal that saw the Decepticons gain an undefended Earth. A destructive war occurred between Decepticon and human, with New York City seized as a base.

Beast Era

Beast Wars

The mysterious aliens known as the Vok chose prehistoric Earth, which they dubbed Nexus Earth, as the site of an experiment, and seeded the planet with vast amounts of raw energon, installing a second, artificial moon into the planet's orbit and placing several devices (including Stonehenge) at strategic points on the planet.

And scientists cried in frustration.

Around the time of the emergence of proto-hominids, a group of Maximals and Predacons from Cybertron's future travelled back in time to prehistoric Earth, where they waged a war they dubbed the "Beast Wars," and encountered the Vok, interfering in their plans. Deciding that the Beast Warriors had contaminated their experiment, the Vok activated the second moon, transforming it into a giant laser weapon with which they planned to detonate the Energon seeded throughout the planet, wiping it clean of life. This plan was foiled by the Maximal leader, Optimus Primal, but the vast majority of the raw Energon on the planet was transformed into stable, cube form.

Both factions soon became aware of early hominids. A foiled Predacon attempt to slaughter them caused them to both disperse and develop knowledge of crude tools and weapons; Cheetor happily intervened in the natural course of Time by teaching the young hominids simple physics lessons; and after the end of the war, when the Transformers returned to Cybertron, Waspinator was left on the planet as the leader and god of a hominid tribe. Although they eventually rejected him and he too returned to Cybertron, it is unclear precisely how much influence Waspinator may have had on the evolution of humanity and their culture. Many would find this dizzturbing.

Earliest known human religion.

Interestingly, by the time immediately prior to the Beast Wars, Earth and its sector in space was declared off-limits by order of the Maximal High Council, and likely all information about it tightly regulated. It's unknown precisely when and why this ban was initiated. However, it related to the events in BWII...


Beast Wars II

A future version of Earth was later visited by Maximals and Predacons under the command of Lio Convoy and Galvatron, respectively. At first known only as "Gaea", the world was known to have two sentient inhabitants, a girl named Artemis and her companion Moon. Although the presence of what seemed to be a decimated Tokyo Tower suggested that Gaea was Earth, it was not fully confirmed until release of the Robot Masters toyline's version of Lio Convoy, the bio to which revealed that Earth had been devastated by mankind's tampering with the power source known as Angolmois energy.

Robots in Disguise

Thousands of years ago, the Autobot high council hid Fortress Maximus on Earth. The many parts of its activation mechanism, such as O-Parts, the Orb of Sigma, and Cerebros, came to be located within relics left behind by ancient human civilizations. In the 1940s, a crew of Autobots was dispatched to the planet to check up on things, unsuccessfully. In the present day, the biggest problem facing humanity is a lack of access to energy. Doctor Onishi is the world's foremost expert on locating and cataloguing new energy sources, and during the course of his work he located Fortress Maximus and some of the O-Parts. Cue the second biggest problem for humanity, as their top energy expert was kidnapped by a giant robot hand.

Unicron Trilogy

Cartoon continuity

The symbol on Earth's Cyber Keys.

After the first defeat of Unicron, Earth was chosen as one of the planets to receive a Cyber Planet Key, which would have reformatted the planet into a Transformer colony. However, the colony ship Atlantis, also carrying the Omega Lock, crashed onto the planet before it could begin its mission.

(Note: A lost undersea city was found earlier during the Armada series, one powered by a Mini-Con from the Air Defense Mini-Con Team. A hologram described that the civilization had been quite advanced, but was destroyed by its own power. The human children deemed this city to be Atlantis, but it is possible that it was a completely different civilization.)

Some time later, when the Mini-Cons fled Cybertron to escape being used as tools, their ship came out of warp above Earth. Impacting onto the planet's moon, the Mini-Con ship broke in half, sending a large chunk of the craft into Earth's atmosphere. Mini-Con storage panels were spread across the globe and the ship itself crashed onto the surface, where they laid dormant for nearly a million years. First Encounter Earth's fate being tied to that of Cybertron in the Unicron Trilogy is a form of predestination. The human Rad White visited Cybertron millions of years ago via a completely unexplained timeslip and encountered the Mini-Cons upon birth, releasing them from Unicron's control and pretty much sealing this fated relationship for good.

Live-action Transformers movies

Movie/Prequels

And this is... erm... well, I can't tell. But it's exciting, honest!

Eons ago, the Thirteen Seven founders of the Dynasty of Primes came to Earth with their warriors and workers to build a Harvester unit, designed to nick power from stars to charge the mighty AllSpark. Just as they finished the Harvester, the Primes discovered the primitive humans. Most of the Primes upheld their rule of sparing life, but one Prime, forever known as The Fallen despised the humans as insects and sought to seize the AllSpark's power for himself. A great battle took place, but in the end, the Dynasty of Primes stole the Matrix of Leadership, the key to activate the harvester, and hid it in a tomb made of their bodies. The harvester was abandoned on Earth, in the country that would be called Egypt. The native humans built a pyramid around it, millennia before those Ivory Tower eggheads claim the Egyptians did. Seekers would start searching the planet for the Matrix, and symbols and pictures of them ended up on ancient human relics.

The AllSpark itself crashed onto Earth around 10,000 B.C.E., followed a few thousand years later by the Transformer Megatron who would become buried at the Arctic Circle. The discovery of the latter would lead to the formation (at ...some point) of the Sector Seven organisation, a United States secret service meant to handle "non-biological entities". Hoover Dam would be built as a secret holding base for Sector Seven, near to populous Mission City. Unknown to Sector Seven (initially), the Seekers were still searching on Earth, this time disguised as contemporary machinery; one of them would accidentally cause the Spanish-American War.

Tekeli-li!

In 1961, the Ark crashed on Earth's moon, sparking the space race. By 1972, Soundwave and Laserbeak had landed on Earth and coereced humans into helping them end the space race to protect the Ark from discovery. Sector Seven was involved in the American effort to explore the Ark.

Through Megatron, much of modern human technology would be created via reverse-engineering and much of modern American history driven by Sector Seven. Oppenheimer created the atom bomb through reverse-engineered technology; the "space race" (including more secret parts of it) was won by America solely due to Megatron's bits; and Three Mile Island was caused by poking at the AllSpark. The Soviet Union was aware of Sector Seven and its "Ice Man", and attempted to capture it when it was transported from the Arctic to America.

The 1980s would see a number of Transformers landing on Earth, including Starscream, before soon departing. This appears to have been covert even among their own factions, as none of the Transformers have referred to it. Sector Seven hurriedly initiated the Hungry Dragon black propaganda operation, creating a toyline of transforming robots to cover up the sightings.

By the 21st Century, the United States had thus become so powerful the United States military possessed bases in foreign countries such as Qatar and NASA had total supremacy over space-related matters. Sector Seven had its own paramilitary wing and prisons, all while being so secret the Secretary of Defence was unaware of its existence.

What the hip kids will wear in the far future of 2007.

In 2003, covert Transformers (both Bumblebee and Decepticon) arrived on Earth to search for the AllSpark, successfully evading and sometimes killing any Sector Seven forces. Another and seemingly unrelated faction would later attempt the same thing, even getting their operative Dewbot inside the Hoover Dam base. Operating at the fringes were human vigilantes such as the mysterious Agent X and the Lunchables Brigade paramilitary, the latter having some form of contact with the Autobots.

Where pleasure follows pain
And people go insane
Fly around in planes
And pray that it won't rain

In the summer of 2007, the same Decepticons arrived on Earth again and would learn of the existence of Archibald Witwicky's glasses; luckily, Optimus Prime and the Autobots arrived on Earth to secure the AllSpark. Open warfare would result, ending in a final battle with both the military and the Autobots fighting against the Decepticons at Mission City. Sector Seven were decimated and the AllSpark cube destroyed, but the Decepticons were defeated and Megatron killed thanks in part to two youths. Transformers

"And to my opponents on this issue, I'd like to say pbbbbbt suck it!"

Sector Seven was tasked with cleanup, making a brief, if shaky, alliance with the Autobots to escort the remains of the Decepticons for dumping in the Laurentian Abyss, only to end up in the shit after their secret Decepticon prisoner was activated and caused a major battle. The same day, the Nemesis, a long lost Decepticon ship tasked with locating Earth, arrived in Earth's solar system; its commander Soundwave, upon learning of the loss of Megatron and the Cube, dispatched forces across the planet to begin looking for Megatron's body and the Matrix of Leadership.

Following this, Sector Seven was shut down and a secret military alliance was made between the United States and the Autobots: NEST. Other countries were involved with NEST, but it's not clear how heavily they were. Either way, they had repeated battles with rogue Decepticons.

Pyramids hide the Harvester inside.

By 2009, Barack Obama was the President of the United States, with Theodore Galloway as National Security Advisor and General Morshower as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; China was on such good terms with America that it allowed an American dominated international military coalition to operate in its cities; Egypt and Jordan had established a border with each other; and a large number of bloggers were aware something was being covered up, with a possibly-new Agent X passing information to them. That same year, Megatron was revived, and was tasked by his master The Fallen with retrieving Sam Witwicky and killing Optimus Prime. Failing in the former but succeeding in the latter, Megatron decided to escalate the war with the Autobots by making overt attacks, with strikes on Earth cities and the destruction of a major pyramid before the Autobot/NEST team won when Sam Witwicky used the Matrix to revive Optimus Prime, who in turn defeated Megatron and killed The Fallen. Revenge of the Fallen

By this time, Earth's main export was ex reality-TV contestants. Welcome to Earth

Post-Fallen, Autobot/NEST forces would have multiple battles with leftover Decepticon forces and human factions. They would also uncover the lost Power Core Combination technology on Earth, causing an escalation on both sides as combiner technology was applied. Cyber Missions

A few years after the death of the Fallen, the Autobots and Decepticons were public knowledge and energon detectors were set up in all of Earth's major cities to detect Decepticon forces. By this point, the war seemed to be in a peaceful lull as there hadn't been a major Decepticon engagement in a while and the Autobots were helping to deal with humans who were threats to world security, sometimes of their own initiative and against the American government's wishes. After a trip to Chernobyl uncovered an engine part from the Ark, Optimus Prime and Ratchet traveled to the moon and recovered five pillars and Sentinel Prime who was brought back to life with the Matrix of Leadership. This played right into the Decepticons plans as they needed Sentinel to use the space bridge to bring an army to Earth and to bring Cybertron as well, so the Decepticons could conquer Earth and use its resources and human population to rebuild Cybertron. Most of the Decepticon army invaded Chicago, killing countless humans while a few Decepticons spread around the planet to release the space bridge. In Chicago, a massive battle occurred in which a combined force of Autobots and humans assaulted the Decepticon-held city. In the end, Chicago was liberated and the Decepticon army was destroyed along with the space bridge, Sentinel and Cybertron, forcing the Autobots to accept Earth as their new home. Dark of the Moon

Games

There are several divergent timelines where the presence of other Transformers or different strategies undertaken altered the entire pattern of events.

Some have the same basic outcome, but with greater and more wide-ranging devastation to America and greater (but futile) resistance by Sector Seven. At least one resulted in not only wider destruction but in complete Decepticon victory.

In the most severe divergence, the rogue Decepticon general Mainframe reached Earth before the Autobots and established an army and base at the Arctic. He began taking out every Autobot agent arriving on Earth, whilst searching for the AllSpark, and eventually began sweeping the Earth with large numbers of drone units. He was eventually defeated by the Earthbound Chevy Autobots unit; the impact this had on Starscream's attempts to gain the AllSpark, not to mention Earth itself, are unknown.

The following events occur in a splinter timeline where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.

In a further divergent timeline, the Decepticons succeeded at Mission City and conquered the United States. While NATO regrouped to try and oppose them, its forces proved no match for Decepticon retaliation. The crisis caused Russia to join up with NATO, and resulted in extensive damage to Paris, including the loss of the French centre of government.

Via a processing station at Savannah, Georgia, Megatron used the AllSpark to begin transforming Earth into a new Cybertron. The Autobots eventually killed him and destroyed the AllSpark, but the fundamental damage was already done: Earth's core was infected, causing the planet to be torn apart by continuing techno-organic activity. Unnatural disasters spread across the Earth, along with areas spewing out raw energon and a strange illness affecting scores of people. This would eventually be stopped with Nucleon.

On top of this, attempts to rebuild the liberated United States were constantly thwarted by a Decepticon terror campaign; both Autobot and NATO forces (the American military having been decimated) operated on US soil, attempting to defend it. The Decepticons eventually re-conquered 600+ miles of US territory centred on Savannah, claiming it as an autonomous Decepticon Heartland. To make matters worse, the Decepticons had mental control over hundreds of human officials, including the US President, and used them to force America to seek a diplomatic deal and thus leave itself easier to conquer. While the Autobots eventually defeated the Decepticons, the mind-controlled slaves and drone soldiers were littered across the country.

Transformers Animated

Before the Autobots woke up, great things had happened in the 21st and 22nd centuries, including the colonisation of Mars and a war against the evil Inhumanoids.

By the 22nd Century, robotic technology had transformed the world. The centre of this development was Detroit, where Isaac Sumdac had set up his Sumdac Systems company and made great breakthroughs in robotics (thanks to his friend the talking head). Robots work in all fields, from fast food to journalism to law enforcement.

This leap in technology has also led to numerous supervillains and other forms of advanced criminal activity. Luckily, at least one superhero has also arisen.

Cybertronian legend tells of an ancient, eons-raging battle between Primus and Unicron. After Primus had cast Unicron into space by creating the thirteen original Transformers, Unicron slumbered for many ages. In his slumber, debris gravitationally attached to Unicron formed the planet Earth, of which Unicron is its core. One Shall Rise, Part 1

Late in the Cybertonian civil war, both the Autobots and Decepticons hid their energon stores off world, a practice that seeded planets like Earth with its deposits of the precious resource. In doing so, however, the war spread to these alien worlds, with the largest Cybertronian battle in the Milky Way galaxy being fought on Earth. The aftermath of this bloody conflict was left undisturbed for thousands of years, and was not common knowledge amongst most Autobots. Darkness Rising, Part 3

Following Optimus Prime and Megatron's initial skirmishes on the planet, the former ordered all Autobots to Earth, while Starscream was sent to salvage a space bridge from wherever he could find it. Transformers: Prime (comic) The Autobots, meanwhile, set up Autobot Outpost Omega One in an American missile base and opened up relations with the United States government: Special Agent Fowler of the Pentagon was assigned as their liaison. Darkness Rising, Part 2

Starscream built his space bridge to bring Decepticons to Earth, but Arcee and Cliffjumper sabotaged it; only Starscream came through. On Earth, Starscream rendezvoused with Breakdown to assault the two saboteurs, but Optimus and Bumblebee rescued them. Returning to base via a GroundBridge, Optimus informed Cliffjumper more Autobots were gathering, and the battle had only begun. Transformers: Prime (comic)

The Autobots would covertly watch for Decepticons, while the 'cons covertly mined energon. Darkness Rising, Part 2

The Covenant of Primus tells of an eternal conflict caused when certain planets come into alignment. The Autobots figured out that Earth was the planet that was prophesied as chaotically formed, as did Megatron. During Optimus Prime's one-on-one battle with Megatron, the volcano setting erupted with Dark Energon, right when the planetary alignment as predicted came to pass. One Shall Fall Earthquakes and tornadoes hit across the planet right after the volcanic event. It was soon determined that this weather phenomena was caused by the awakening of Unicron. Optimus Prime theorized that after Unicron was defeated by the thirteen original Primes, his dormant form collected space matter, which eventually formed into the planet Earth. Optimus Prime also theorized that Unicron became formless during that time. At least, he hoped Unicron became formless. Otherwise, if he woke up and stretched, KAPOW! Earth would poof to dust. One Shall Rise, Part 1 The strange weather events ended when Optimus Prime used the Matrix of Leadership to force Unicron into stasis. One Shall Rise, Part 3
