History
Once a territory of Arcadia, Abaskun was known for its rich farmland.[3]
Human-Covenant War
During the Battle for Arcadia, the Covenant destroyed the major population centers of the planet,[6] which would have included Abaskun.[4]
However, a group of Arcadians that remained behind on the planet returned to Abaskun and established it as a small, rural farming community. Abaskun continued to provide food supplies[3] for the Inner Colonies.[2]
On September 9, 2549, eighteen years after their initial invasion, the Covenant returned to Arcadia.[3] As the Covenant began glassing the planet, hundreds of civilian transports attempted to flee the planet,[7] including ones from Abaskun.[5]
Trivia
Abaskun was a port on the southeastern shore of the Caspian Sea that existed during the Middle Ages.
