==Tier 7: Pre-Industrial==
Tier 7 is one of the most common and stable states, with limited weaponry and environmental threats. Societies tend to be small and scattered, driven by subsistence farming, foraging, or hunter-gathering needs. Technology is limited to simple hand made tools, weapons, or agrarian implements and methods, but a very broad understanding of planetary and solar mechanics is not uncommon.
Every race indexed in the [[Conservation Measure]] was placed at this level after [[reintroduction|reseeding]].<ref name= "FloodAd" >'''[[Halo: The Flood|Halo: The Flood (2010)]]''': ''Adjunct''</ref>. The [[Flood]] is natively at this Tier level, but can jump up to any tier depending on the intelligence of the host whom they infect.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/species/flood '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Flood'']</ref>
