The Unggoy Rebellion, also known as the Grunt Rebellion, is an event in the history of the empire of the Covenant. It was started by the Infusion Incident when the growing Unggoy population put pressure on the Kig-Yar population with whom they shared their habitats. Apparently, the overwhelming Unggoy population forced many of the Kig-Yar to relocate, killing many of their eggs and forcing the Kig-Yar birth rate to decline.
In an effort to exact revenge, some of the Kig-Yar poisoned the Unggoy infusion resources, recreational narcotics used in the Unggoy's portable methane supplies. This made the contaminated males sterile, escalating the conflict between the two species. After the Prophets failed to respond to this, due to the High Council rejecting the Minister of Fortitude's request to investigate the matter further, it escalated into a short but aggressive conflict, forcing the High Council to create an Arbiter. The conflict ended when the Unggoy homeworld Balaho was almost glassed by orbital bombardment by a Covenant Fleet. This war showed that, when motivated, the Unggoy were vicious fighters. Following their warrior tradition, the Sangheili that had defeated the uprising forgave the surviving Unggoy fighters, trained and armed them with better equipment, and integrated them into formerly Sangheili-only units. The war however, kept the Unggoy to a lowly position in the Covenant.[1]
