| The '''East African Protectorate''', abbreviated '''EAP''',{{Ref/Map|Id=zanzibar|H2|[[Zanzibar]]|Detail=Description}}{{Ref/Map|Id=stonetowndesc|Halo 2: Anniversary|[[Stonetown]]|Detail=Description}} is a union containing multiple members{{Ref/Reuse|pointprize}} including the [[Africa]]n [[National government|nations]] of the [[Republic of Kenya]]{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/new-mombasa|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Universe - New Mombasa}} and the [[United Republic of Tanzania]].{{Ref/Reuse|waypearth}} | | ==Background== |
| | The East African Protectorate is most likely a union of nations much like today's African Union or the United Nations. It makes up a large part of East Africa, including, but not limited to the present day nations Kenya and Tanzania. |
|
| |
|
| ==Overview==
| | Not much is explained about the EAP other than because of the location of the [[Space Elevator]] in its city of [[New Mombasa]] it is a powerful nation with great wealth. It also explained that sometime in the 25th century the EAP tried a number of high capital projects like [[Wind Power Station 7]] based on [[Zanzibar Island]] in an attempt of re-nationalization. |

| ===Topography and ecology===
| | Much of the action in Halo takes place in the EAP including a number of [[multiplayer]] maps like ''[[Zanzibar]]''. |
| The East African Protectorate contains many different environments including savannas,{{Ref/Level|H3|[[Tsavo Highway]]}} jungles,{{Ref/Level|H3|[[Sierra 117]]}} and beaches.{{Ref/Reuse|zanzibar}}{{Ref/Level|H2|Outskirts}} The member states of Kenya and Tanzania are physically linked together through the [[Tsavo highway (location)|Tsavo Highway]].{{Ref/Book|Id=encyc296|Enc09|Section=Earth|Page=284-285}}{{Ref/Book|Enc11|Section=Earth|Page=296-297}}

| ==History==
| |
| ===Rise of humanity===
| |
| In the 2400s, the East African Protectorate began a series of renationalization initiatives including [[water]]-purification facility construction and alternative energy facility construction. This resulted in the government run [[Global Water Campaign|Global Water Campaign (GWC)]] creating the [[Mount Kilimanjaro Water Plant]] and [[Wind Power Station 7]] on [[Zanzibar]].{{Ref/Site|Id=waypearth|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/earth|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Universe - Earth}}

| ===Human-Covenant war===

| |
| During the final months of the [[Human-Covenant War]] in [[2552#October|late 2552]], the East African Protectorate became the site to key battles which determined the outcome of the war. Over the course of the [[Battle of Earth]] despite many other [[Covenant]] forces were deployed all across the [[planet]],{{Ref/Novel|Novel=HGoO}}{{Ref/Comic|Halo: Uprising}} the [[Truth's fleet|Covenant]] under the [[Prophet of Truth]]'s command concentrated most of their forces in East Africa as they excavated long-buried [[Forerunner]] [[the Portal|Portal]] structure, invading and occupying a large portion of the surrounding area in the process.{{Ref/Book|Book=HM|Page=117}}{{Ref/Film|Id=waypoint|Film=Halo Waypoint|Story=Ten Twenty|StoryLinkText=Ten Twenty}}
| |
| | |
| ===Post-war===
| |
| Following the end of the war, the EAP planned on rebuilding the urban core of Mombasa, an expensive and ambitious project. UEG investment through [[Project Rebirth]] and UNSC actions at the Portal did help revitalize some areas of the city like [[Haller Street]].{{Ref/Site|Id=CFShowcase|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/showcase-sensitive|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Showcase Sensitive|D=16|M=6|Y=2021}} However at some point, as a part of Project Rebirth, the member states of the EAP donated [[gold]] ore for a statue of [[John-117]] to be placed in the [[United Nations Space Command Memorial Park]] in [[New Mombasa]].{{Ref/Generic|Id=pointprize|[[McFarlane Toys/Halo Point Prizes]]|Campaign Master Chief}}
| |
| | |
| In [[2555]], the monitor [[000 Tragic Solitude]] [[Invasion of Earth|attacked]] [[Earth]] and specifically the region around the Voi Portal.{{Ref/Novel|HitD|Chapter=??}} Two years later, [[Rion Forge]] would [[Mission to Mount Kilimanjaro|infiltrate]] a Forerunner site at [[Mount Kilimanjaro]].{{Ref/Novel|Ren|Chapter=??}}
| |
| | |
| ==Government and society==
| |
| The "heart and soul" of the East African Protectorate was considered to be [[Mombasa]].{{Ref/Book|EVG|Page=129}}
| |
| | |
| ===Services===
| |
| Dozens of wind power stations were spread around the coastal regions of the EAP.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=stonetowndesc}} Some of the services in the EAP were known to coordinate or otherwise work with organizations elsewhere on the continent such as with the [[Voi Greater Outlands Police Bureau]] and the [[Western African Committee on Missing Persons]].{{Ref/Game|H3|[[Easter egg]] [[Missing Person Poster]]}}
| |
| | |
| The EAP also maintained a regional peacekeeping force. The {{UNSCShip|Crassus}} would be recommissioned and serve with them between [[2411]] and [[2490]].{{Ref/Site|Id=CFStrike|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-ship-strike|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Ship Strike|D=20|M=04|Y=2023}}
| |
