OK, how about Nuka, Timon and Pumba find girlfriends.

Also I've have an Idea, how about focusing on everyday life for the Pride.

OK, fine.

Here's the back tory I promised for Yuna and Sparta. Part one.

Before the Begining there was Lionial the great sprit. and there was Hyen the devourer. One was the incarnation of good, life and creation. The other of evil death and destruction. For eons, Lionial and hyen battled, the balance of power shifting between them more times tha could be counted.

Only by creating the 13, the original lion kings from who nearly all royal blood lines are decended from, was Lionial finnaly able to defeat Hyen, and cast him down into a dark pit from where he is fedd the souls ofthe wicked, who will suffer for all enterity.

Lionial greived as he law the devastation he helped cause, so he gave up his body to heal the land, his mane to heal the water, and his spirit to heal the sky. He gave the new world leadership in the form of the 13, who sired royal bood lines before they too ascended to the sky to form the gates of lional (The two lion constulation seen in simba's pride).

Part two.

In the day of king Ahadi, a terrible drought struck the pride lands. Many animals fled to other lands, seeking better places to raise their young. Most went to marshridge.

However as most of these animals had given birth to young. Over Population arose, creating famine. To combat this, King Maximus, Yuna's predecessor ordered massive hunts. Soon predators were killing more that eating. But this led to a pile up of dead animals, creating disease. This disease became the marshridge plauge which wiped out the royal family among others.

To prevent anarchy, the leaders of each heards gathered and formed the marshridge high council in hopes of ruling until a new king could be crowned. Sadly none were worthy and the council was forced to maintain leadership..at least until two lions emearged.

Yuna wasn't always a king, but he wasn't even a prince. He was once a cronicler in the marsh ridge caste system, tasked with maintaining the knowledge of Marshridge's history, traditions, stories and beliefs.

However as Yuna learned more about Marshridge's past, he grew increasingly concerned with the present corrupption in the high council, and the inequailty among the animals.

Yuna became inspired by the words and Ideas of a gladitorial pit fighter. A lion who named himself after one of lionial's 13 original kings. Sparticus. Sparticus vowed to challange marshridge's leadership and demand they abolish the caste system so all animals can be treated as equals.

This gladiator turned revolutionary rapidly gather a loyal following. Yuna began to secretly corrispond with sparticus, who came tobecome something of a mentor to him. And as Sparticus left the gladatorial arena for the political, he saw fit to shorten his name.

Part four

Before long, Sparta appeared before the high council to propose his vision for a just socioty, and it was here he began to reveal his true colors. By Proclaiming the need to overthrow the high council by force, and arrogantly demanding to be named the king of Marshridge.

But Yuna did not beleive in violance as a means of acheiving justice and equality. And as he spoke, the hearts and minds of the council were moved by Yuna's  words, Here for the first time since Marshridge's golden age tood someone worthy of being marshridge's kng. But even with the council's blessings, Yuna still lacked a royal blood line of his own and could only truely achieve that honor by earing the blessings of lionial and the 13 original kings.

With his ambitions twarted, Sparta spitefully severed all ties with both Yuna and the council and in time came to wage war against all who opposed him through his growing army of followers, which he named the conquerers.

Sparta vowwed to claim the title of lion king no matter what the coast. In time warfare spread across marshridge like a wildfire, consuming everyone and everything in it's path. Hoping to stop the war, Yuna journyed to the holist sight in all marshridge, the Marshridge Plateau. There he sought the guidance of the great kings of the past, but instead found himself befor Lionial and the 13 originial kings. Sensing the purity and strength Yuna had. They bestowed the title of king upon Yuna and royal status upon all his decendents. that is how a surprised and humbled croniclier came to become Yuna: The rightful king of marshridge.

Rocky there are no holy sites in the lion king story.  you must try and keep  the film in mind
 we cannot have characters ain any way connected to transformers involved in this story period. your back story simply does not work.  the prides are monarchies, not councils, they are ruled by a single king, or by a pair of lions if there is more than 1 lion born to the king. the king is determined by birth, unless the heir is unfit then the king choses some other male. there is no voting, no elections, no magic involved, except wiytth the mystics who serve the kingdom, and each pride has one. your story, does don't work.

Furthermore, marshridge is not an African name, it is English, or American. You must remember thsat this is set in Africa, Rocky. the names of characters asnd locations must be african. vitani, kopa kiara kovu, those names work. yuna does. marshridge does not. futerhermore, everyt priode has certain unique customs or rules, such as having brother and sister share authority in some prides, orthers have two males running it you can create a unique tradition for yunas kingdom, but it must be something realistic.
