'''Mombasa''' | '''Mombasa''' is a [[city]] in the [[Kenya]]n portion of the [[East African Protectorate]] on [[Earth]]. The heart of the city was the prosperous [[New Mombasa]] on [[Wikipedia:Mombasa Island|Mombasa Island]]. The nearby mainland was the site of [[Old Mombasa]], a comparatively run-down district.<ref name="bnet">[http://www.bungie.net/projects/odst/guide.aspx ''Bungie.net'': Field Guide entry: New Mombasa]</ref> | ||
Mombasa | Mombasa was the site of [[Earth]]'s first [[Space elevator]]<ref name="bnet"/> and centuries later, was a [[Battle of Mombasa|battlefield]] in the [[2552|climatic year]] of the [[Human-Covenant War]].<ref name="halo2"/><ref name="metropolis"/> | ||
==History== | |||
===Interstellar Era=== | |||
[[File:HSS-Mombasa Tether.png|thumb|200px|The [[New Mombasa Orbital Elevator]].]] | |||
Mombasa underwent dramatic change with the arrival of the interstellar era. In response to increasing demand for cheap orbital access, due to its economic stability and prominent location, Mombasa was chosen to be Earth's first [[Space elevator|Space Elevator]] city.<ref name="waypoint">''[[Halo Waypoint]]'': "Space Elevator" article (Archived on [https://web.archive.org/web/20111007185941/http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/locations/gallery/space-tether/e9b2f438-9b5b-477e-8e52-d4e6801e9d5b Archive.org])</ref> The government began construction on one of the wonders of the age: a space elevator (Mombasa's proximity to the equator made it an ideal location) in [[2302]].<ref name="bnet"/> This structure served to lift heavy cargo into geosynchronous orbit without expensive booster rockets filled with fuel. | |||
Over the next eleven years the city experienced explosive growth, but nothing compared to what followed. The city grew out as well as up, its urban sprawl unequaled throughout the continent.<ref name="bnet"/> | |||
====Old Mombasa | Mombasa would change dramatically within the centuries that followed. By [[2430]], New Mombasa had absorbed the entire island and many of the surrounding towns, which became overrun by residents of Mombasa. The switch of name was never official, and though many of the neighborhoods within direct line of sight to the Mombasa Tether still distributed newspapers and [[Chatter]] directories under their previous names, all municipalities within a 74 km radius of the island became referred to as "Old Mombasa."<ref name="bnet"/> | ||
[[File:H2A Campaign OldMombasaSkyline.png|200px|thumb|The skyline of Old Mombasa. | |||
On [[2512|December 19, 2512]], the Superintendent was activated to manage the city's infrastructure.<ref name="wayp">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/tech/superintendent ''Halo Waypoint:'' Superintendent]</ref> | |||
===Covenant Invasion=== | |||
[[File:LC 002 Doc Recon.png|thumb|250px|Some of the affects the Covenant had on the Mombasa area.]] | |||
{{Main|Battle of Mombasa}} | |||
On [[2552#October|October 20, 2552]], a small group of [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[capital ship]]s arrived at Earth. Uninformed of the Human presence on Earth, Regret was outnumbered and outgunned against the [[UNSC Home Fleet]]. During the orbital battle, the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s [[Solemn Penance|Flagship]] broke through Earth's defenses and descended to the atmosphere, and anchored itself above New Mombasa.<ref name="halo2">''[[Halo 2]]'', campaign level [[Outskirts]]</ref> The Covenant started deploying their ground forces to the city, in search of a [[Forerunner]] relic, the [[Installation 00|Ark]] [[The Artifact|Portal]], buried under the city.<ref name="sunrise">''[[Halo Graphic Novel]]'', [[Second Sunrise Over New Mombasa]]</ref> | |||
However, due to a strong UNSC counterattack and the inferior numbers of the Covenant, Regret ordered all of his forces to be evacuated back aboard the Carrier. After this, the ship jumped into [[Slipstream Space|slipspace]] just above the city, releasing a shock wave and pulling multiple city blocks from the mainland with it.<ref name="metropolis">''[[Halo 2]]'', campaign level [[Metropolis]]</ref> This event became known as the "New Mombasa Slipspace Event."<ref>''[[Halo 3]]'', multiplayer map [[High Ground]]</ref> In the hours after Regret's retreat, a larger Covenant fleet arrived at Earth. After sending in ground forces and crushing the remaining UNSC resistance in the city, they [[Glassing|glassed]] the area in order to uncover the Portal.<ref name="coastal" /> In the [[Battle of Kenya|final days]] of the Battle in Africa, only smoldering ruins of Mombasa remained.<ref>''[[Halo 3]]'', campaign level [[Tsavo Highway]]</ref> | |||
===Post-war=== | |||
Following the end of the war, the [[Unified Earth Government]] began [[Project Rebirth]] to rehabilitate war torn areas on Earth.<ref>''[[Halo: Legacy of Onyx]]'', Chapter 2</ref> At some point, the Project started work in Mombasa. The old city hall thoroughfare for Mombasa was to be transformed into the [[United Nations Space Command Memorial Park|UNSC Memorial Park]].<ref name="mombasapressrelease">''[[McFarlane Toys/Halo Point Prizes]]'', [[McFarlane Toys/Halo Point Prizes#Golden Master Chief|Master Chief Statue Press Release]]</ref> | |||
==Geography== | |||
Mombasa Island, where the metropolis of New Mombasa lies, is separated from the mainland by two creeks: [[Wikipedia:Tudor Creek|Tudor Creek]] to the north and [[Wikipedia:Kilindini Harbour|Kilindini Harbour]] to the south. Northwest of the island and between the inlets, there used to be a large peninsula, connected to the Mombasa island by the [[Wikipedia:Makupa Causeway|Makupa Causeway]].<ref group="note">This landmass was shown to be covered by water in ''Halo 3: ODST''. This could be explained by the dramatic climbing of sea levels due to global warming, whose results are evident throughout Mombasa. Or by the creation of an artificial seaway that reaches further inland. It's also possible that this simply wasn't created for the in-game area as the only way to see that far west is in [[Panoramic Camera Mode]]</ref> | |||

[[File:H2A Campaign OldMombasaCity.png|thumb|right|200px|The variety of architecture in Mombasa.]] | |||
The architecture of the city is different depending on the location. Old Mombasa's architecture was an odd hodgepodge of old and new: 16th-century Muslim arcades, aging 21st-century office buildings, looming 26th-century power couplings, old concrete homes secured with computerized locks. Clotheslines strung next to power lines, and mechanical gates set into ancient brick walls.<ref name="halo2"/><ref name="ani"/> In some areas, newer skyscrapers had found their home.<ref name="coastal" /><ref>''[[Halo: Reach]]'', multiplayer map [[Breakneck]]</ref> | |||

===People=== | |||
=== | The culture also seems displaced between the different parts of the city; while New Mombasa was populated with industrial workers and ambitious cosmopolitans, Old Mombasa was considered to be more of an old rundown slum that deteriorates by the day.
