Arcadia
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Ratings Template:Planet Arcadia is a United Nations Space Command colony located in the Procyon System.[1] A "tropical paradise", it was a popular destination for tourists[2] and received many shipments from Harvest.[3] By 2531 it had a population of approximately three million. However, it became a site of conflict in 2531, caught up in the Human-Covenant War, of great interest to the latter.[3] The Covenant would return to Arcadia later in the war, destroying it.
Trivia
- It may have been named after the actual Arcadia, a region south of Greece in the Peloponnesus.[4]
- The UNSC Pillar of Autumn was already at Arcadia when the Spirit of Fire came to the planet's aid[5].
