Xetaxxis
Xetaxxis is a planet. It hates Lanarq.
Fiction
The Transformers cartoon
Xetaxxis was plunged deep in a war with neighboring world Lanarq, turning to the Quintessons for greater and more destructive weapons. After this war had raged for centuries, devastating both worlds, it came to the point where both races would be wiped out entirely. The Autobots arranged for a peace conference, and the Xetaxxans dispatched a delegation to meet with a group of Lanarqans.
Talks quickly broke down, and the Xetaxxans stormed out, promising decisive action. They contacted their Quintesson suppliers, who reported that the weapon they ordered would soon be delivered. This done, the Xetaxxan fleet fired on the Lanarq ships, which responded in kind. The Xetaxxan and Lanarqan delegates resumed brawling, despite the best efforts of Rodimus and Ultra Magnus, until Sky Lynx arrived with a Quintesson Journal. The revelation that the Quintessons had been keeping the war going so they could supply guns to both Xetaxxis and Lanarq effectively ended the war, with both races agreeing to keep to their own worlds.

IDW Generation 1 continuity
Xetaxxis was a planet in the territory of the Solstar Order. The space station Orchid Crossing orbited the planet. Shining Armor #1 The natives, the Xetaxxians, were a brown/green skinned organic race that always wore heavy winter clothing to cope with the frigid and energy defficient atmosphere of their planet. Shining Armor #3
One of the Ultra Magnuses had never heard of the planet after hacking a Galactic Council starship's computer. After he, Bumblebee and Sky Blast spent a week looking for it, they arrived at Orchid Crossing. After Sky Blast had been possessed by a Dire Wraith, Magnus disabled the station's power and sent it falling into Xetaxxis in the hopes that atmospheric reentry would destroy the Wraith/Cybertronian hybrid. Vekktral observed that it hadn't. On the surface, Magnus placed Stardrive under arrest for violating the Tyrest Accord before he was shot into stasis by Rom. Shining Armor #2
After Stardrive revealed the existence of her energon synthesizer, both Space Knights and Autobots agreed to a temporary truce to thwart the Decepticon/Wraith alliance. Elsewhere, after the Sky Blast-Wraith had burned itself out, Vekktral wondered if the natives were mechanical but a quick check by Starscream disproved that and he casually chucked the hapless native to their death.
Rom, Livia and Stardrive flew to the crash site of Orchid Crossing where Livia expressed her disgust at the Xetaxxians scavenging the remains of the station while Rom sympathized with their plight. Stardrive attempted to evacuate a group of Xetaxxians only for Starscream to slay them. Socking Starscream in the jaw, Rom vowed to protect the planet and its people from both Wraiths and Decepticons. To replenish their forces, the Wraiths assimilated a Xetaxxian village, turning the inhabitants into Dire Wraiths and baited a trap for their foes, playing on Bumblebee's sympathies. Shining Armor #3
