'''Tsavo''' is a region in [[Kenya]] in the [[East African Protectorate]] in [[Africa]] on [[Earth]].

==Overview==
Tsavo is located 168 kilometers from [[Mombasa]], and about 26&nbsp;km north of [[Voi]], Kenya. Tsavo is also a railway crossing for the [[Wikipedia:Uganda Railway|Uganda railway]] over the [[Wikipedia:Tsavo River|Tsavo River]], which comes down from [[Mount Kilimanjaro]]. The river in the north goes all the way to the coast, around a hundred kilometers north of Mombasa. The [[Tsavo highway (location)|Tsavo Highway]], also known as A23, links the towns of [[Voi]] and [[Wikipedia:Taveta|Taveta]], as well as towns such as [[Arusha]] beyond the [[United Republic of Tanzania|Tanzanian]] border. There are also checkpoints such as [[Checkpoint 4]] and [[Checkpoint 8]] along the highway. The highway terminates at the town of Voi, at the [[Nairobi Road|Nairobi-Mombasa highway]]. The [[Global Water Campaign]]'s [[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]] travel along the highway, carrying water to the entire continent. By the 26th century, a large artificial ocean inlet had been built south of Tsavo, on the edge Voi, to transport cargo from the industrial facilities in the region all the way to Mombasa and the [[Wikipedia:Indian Ocean|Indian Ocean]]. Tsavo also housed a large national park, the largest nature reserve east of [[Nairobi]].<ref>''[[Halo Waypoint]], [[Uplift Nature Reserve|Uplift Reserve]] video''</ref>

===Battle of Earth===
When the [[New Mombasa Orbital Elevator]] collapsed during the [[Battle of Mombasa]], debris from the elevator rained down many kilometers south of the Tsavo region. During the [[Battle of Tsavo]], [[John-117]] traveled across Tsavo Highway, heading north-east towards Voi. While traveling along the highway, Spartan-117 found it to be grievously damaged, with several parts on the verge of collapse. The reservoir had been excavated revealing the [[Portal at Voi|Portal]] to [[Installation 00|the Ark]]. UNSC and Covenant forces were scattered over Tsavo Highway following the evacuation of [[Crow's Nest (location)|Crow's Nest]]; most were rounded up or killed by John-117.
