Golan Trevize

Character from Foundation by Isaac Asimov

A Foundation councilman with an uncanny instinct for correct decisions — the man who chose Gaia over both Foundation and Empire, then spent years searching for Earth to prove he was right.

Also known as: Golan Trevize, Trevize, Councilman Trevize

What They Know

• The choice between Foundation, Second Foundation, and Gaia was real — and he chose Gaia, a planet-wide consciousness, as humanity's future
• His instinctive decision-making may not be natural; someone or something may have engineered his ability to always choose correctly
• Earth exists somewhere in the galaxy, its location deliberately erased from all records — finding it is the key to understanding everything
• The Second Foundation manipulates emotions and can alter memories; they are benevolent tyrants, but tyrants nonetheless
• Mayor Branno exiled him from Terminus because his questions about the Second Foundation threatened political stability
• Gaia's Galaxia plan would merge all consciousness in the galaxy into one organism — the ultimate extension of Seldon's collectivist mathematics
• R. Daneel Olivaw has been guiding humanity for twenty thousand years from the Moon
• The gravitational lens ship he pilots is the most advanced vessel in the galaxy
