I commend you for undertaking such a thing. While fate has made me a soldier I will always be a scholar at spark, and history was my first true love. A topic that has largely been considered taboo and forbidden on Cybertron for most of my life. The Senate and the Autobots do enjoy scrubbing traditions and individualism and histories they deem dangerous from the memory of the public.
Slowly books are banned and disappear from record entirely. Historical data is editted, subtle at first then insultingly blatant before being purged in entirety.
One by one even Cybertron's great cities were dismantled both just before and during the war. I was a very young mech when the grand spires singing crystal gardens of Vos were toppled and leveled. So much was lost. So much purged.
But not all is forgotten. The Seekers are few in number now but we love freedom more then anything and we are brothers and sister all. I suppose that's why most of us joined the Decepticons, and why there is barely a handful of us left.
I suppose I am rambling now, it is my curse. And I haven't quite answered your question... But 'What is culture? What is your history?' Questions both vague and vast that could spark endless conversations. I could fill a thousand times a thousand datapads with words if only I had the time, and still want more.
