During the war of the Thirteen Tribes, Galvatron was said to hail from the Darklands. Since Galvatron was a former vassal of Megatronus, the Darklands were presumably a territory once controlled by that Prime. The Mind Bomb The Crucible

Notes

On the memorial statue commemorating the crew of the original Ark, Galvatron was referred to as "Galvatron of Protohex". Post Hoc It is unknown whether the Darklands were later renamed with a more modern name (a la Istanbul), or if Galvatron's origin as one of the Fallen Prime's subjects was deliberately obscured in history.
