As a consequence of the Autobots defeating the Decepticons at the end of the Great War, the Autobots' descendants, the Maximals, came to rule Cybertron. The Agenda (Part III) While the Decepticons' descendants, the Predacons, were governed by the Predacon Alliance, they remained subordinate to the Maximal government The Agenda (Part 2) in an unstable peace. Beast Wars (Part 1) Despite this status quo, the Tripredacus Council secretly held the long-term goal of one day seeing the Alliance overthrow the Maximals and take Cybertron for the Predacons. The Agenda (Part 1) However, the Predacon criminal Megatron viewed the Council's cooperative relations with the Maximal Elders as a sign of weak leadership, and rebelled against the Alliance by taking more extreme measures against the Maximals: With a small band of like-minded Predacons, Megatron stole the prized Golden Disk and fled Cybertron to incite the Beast Wars, The Agenda (Part 2) leaving the Tripredacus Council to deem him a rogue element acting outside the Predacon Alliance's best interests. The Agenda (Part 1)

During the Beast Wars, a flying fortress of alien design was discovered. When Megatron seized control of it, he reasoned that, with this new weapon in his possession, along with the captured Optimus Primal as a trophy, he could convince the Predacon Alliance to follow his agenda of all-out conquest of Cybertron. When Primal's Maximal allies staged an attack on the vessel, Optimus commented that Megatron should cancel his plans for meeting with the Alliance. Other Visits (Part 2)

When the Tripredacus Council's agent Ravage arrived on Prehistoric Earth, he extended the Maximal crew of the Axalon the apologies of the Predacon Alliance for Megatron's renegade actions. Once Megatron was captured, Ravage arrested him in the name of the Pax Cybertronia and the Predacon Alliance. The Agenda (Part 1) Once in custody, Megatron figured that Ravage was under orders from the Alliance to leave no living witnesses of his presence. With help from a secret message from the original Megatron that had been hidden within the Golden Disk, Megatron was able to sway Ravage to betray the Alliance and join his side. The Agenda (Part 2)

Notes

• According to Beast Wars Universe, the Predacon Alliance is made up of multiple factions besides the Tripredacus Council, which include such groups as the Original Predacons, Star Conclave, Galaticon Order, and several others. At the time of the Beast Wars cartoon, the Tripredacus Council is merely the most powerful faction of the Alliance. None of this information actually made it into the cartoon, leaving it pseudocanon at best.
