Afgrad

The Transformist Autonomous Zone of Afgrad is a Transformist fundamentalist world that was settled prior to the Shturmovik Revolution. It has been under invasion by Germanic worlds for over a thousand years prior to their recent withdrawal. The invasions largely intended to force the inhabitants to abandon their religion or at least reform. Education of girls who disbelieve is forbidden and women who disbelieve are treated as prostitutes and often forced into the conservatorship of a man or a transgender lesbian. There is a religious sect on the planet that interprets Leviticus as requiring all men to become transgender lesbians. They view cisgender women as a commodity and easily influenced by Satan.

The extreme religious beliefs have led nearly all other Transformers to reject them.
