==History==
===Colonization===
In [[2460]], [[human]]ity arrived in the [[Tisiphone system]] and established Barugi as a [[Human colonies|colony]] [[planet|world]] under the jurisdiction of the [[Unified Earth Government]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}{{Ref/Reuse|R17}} During the course of the [[Human-Covenant War]], Barugi was never discovered by the [[Covenant]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}

===Outbreak===
{{Quote|Fifteen years ago, the UNSC Preparatory Academy on Barugi experienced an outbreak of asteroidea merozoite.|Dr. [[Krosbi]]}}
In [[2538]], there was an outbreak of disease at the [[Barugi Preparatory Academy]]. The illness was caused by a protozoal lifeform discovered on the planet termed [[asteroidea merozoite]]. It took only thirty hours for ten thousand people at the school to be infected. All but nine died shortly after. These nine were all partially resistant to being infected thanks to mutations they had that resulted in variants of [[Wikipedia:thalassemia|thalassemia]]. Six with [[Wikipedia:Delta-beta thalassemia|delta-beta thalassemia]] survived for years before finally succumbing to the asteroidea but those with gamma-thalessemia from a novel mutation did not suffer any adverse consequences whatsoever. These three survivors were [[Kerbasi Tuwa]], the medical officer of the academy, and his two children, [[Catalin Tuwa|Catalin]] and [[Yuso Tuwa|Yuso]]. The devastation wrought by the infection caused the academy to be shut down and by [[2541]], the entire planet was placed under biohazard quarantine (BQ). This entailed encircling Barugi with a net of thermonuclear [[Hornet mine]]s and blockade beacons that would alert any vessels that showed an intention to approach. The [[Barugi Incident]] was first made a matter of public record around a year after it occurred but in late [[2553]] it was mysteriously classified and compartmentalized once again.{{Ref/Reuse|R17}}
