| The '''Hydra System Massacres''' were a series of massacres that occurred periodically throughout the history of the [[Hydra system]],{{Ref/Reuse|for}} a near-lawless system within the domain of the [[Unified Earth Government]]. With [[Piracy|pirates]] and [[insurrectionist]]s being reoccurring threats within the Hydra system, [[United Nations Space Command|military forces]] of the [[United Nations Space Command]] occasionally arrive in the system to mete out justice with the use of [[nuclear weapon]]s.<ref>''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]'', p. 300 (2011)</ref>

| The massacres occurred after the ''[[Domus Diaspora]]'' began in [[2362]], but likely before the [[Insurrection]] began in earnest in [[2494]].{{Ref/Note|This is based on Halsey's placement of them before the wars in the Outer Colonies in ''Halo: The Fall of Reach'', as well as her statement being dated on [[2517#August|August 17, 2517]].}}
