Located in [[Tanzania]], near the border of [[Kenya]], '''Mount Kilimanjaro''' is one of the [[Earth]]'s most famous mountains, certainly the most famous [[Africa]]n mountain. It is the tallest mountain in the African continent, and the tallest free-standing mountain in the world, at approximately 5,895 meters (19,341 feet), although it is actually a strato-volcanic. Its name translates roughly from [[Swahili]] into "White Hill."

==History==
[[File:LibrarianEarthCEA.jpg|thumb|right|300px|The Librarian at Mount Kilimanjaro, moments before her death as the Halo effect strikes Earth.]]

During the final hours of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], [[the Librarian]] oversaw the construction, activation, and burial of the nearby [[Installation 00|Ark]] [[the Portal|portal]]. After destroying her [[Keyship]]s, she spent her last days near the mountain. She described Kilimanjaro as "a beautiful thing - a snowcapped sentinel".<ref>'''Halo 3''', ''[[Terminal/Halo 3|Terminal 6]]''</ref>

In the 24th century, melted water from Kilimanjaro was collected by the [[Global Water Campaign]]'s water purification complexes, processed and sent along the [[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]] along the [[Tsavo Highway]] for use across the rest of the African continent. By the 26th Century this facility has fallen into disrepair and is overgrown in jungle after more than a century of neglect.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13287 '''Bungie.net''': ''Ghost Town Revealed'']</ref> One of GWC's installations, the [[A2 Hydroelectric Facility]] located along the [[Nkuu River]], was still operational by the 26<sup>th</sup> century.

===Battle of Earth===
{{main|Raid on Kilimanjaro}}
On November 17, 2552, [[John-117]] crashed to Earth close to Kilimanjaro, with [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] assisting the Spartan in evading [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] occupiers and clearing much of the jungle near Kilimanjaro of the Covenant presence before being extracted.<ref>'''Halo 3''', campaign level, ''[[Sierra 117]]''</ref>

==Trivia==
*The level ''[[Sierra 117]]'' of ''[[Halo 3]]'' is set in the jungles near Mount Kilimanjaro.
*If a player gets [[List of "seven" references in Halo|7]] (five in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'') kills within 4 seconds of each other, they get the medal [[Killimanjaro Medal|Killimanjaro]]. The medal has existed since ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', but few have legitimately earned it in regular multiplayer - it is considerably easier to get in [[Firefight]]. In similar vein, ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' also introduced [[Skullamanjaro Medal|Skullamanjaro]], a legendary [[Headhunter]] medal obtained by winning a game by returning 10 skulls at once.

-===Search for the Librarian===
-In [[2557]], [[343 Guilty Spark]] led the crew of the ''[[Ace of Spades]]'' to a Forerunner facility hidden beneath Kilimanjaro in search of the [[Librarian]]. The crew discovered a platform with a [[Lifeworker]] pod containing a personality imprint of the Librarian. As the crew was surrounded by Spartans, Spark entered the [[hard light]] beam to speak to the Librarian, who helped Spark to realize that the ''Ace of Spades'' crew were the friends that he had been looking so long for. The Librarian's imprint departed for the [[Absolute Record]] with her pod launching into space, something that was witnessed by several hundred people. The ''Ace of Spades'' crew were able to use a translocation pad to escape the mountain and return to their ship while ONI gained control of the facility.<ref>'''[[Halo: Renegades]]'''</ref>
-===Later History===
-After meeting [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Amalea Petrov]], who had been stranded on [[Netherop]] for thirty-three years, [[Thel 'Vadam]] mentioned his visit to Earth and how extraordinarily beautiful he found Mount Kilimanjaro to be as proof that Thel had been to humanity's homeworld. Thel suggested that Petrov should take her people to see it first thing when they reached Earth.{{Ref/Novel|Out|9}}
