I checked through the "official" Halo timeline that was released before the first game, and found mention of a unified Earth government. Should we change the name appropriately? Specops306, Kora 'Morhek 04:11, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Formation?

According to the glossary in the Halo 4 Essential Visual Guide, the UEG was formed in 2075. This contradicts information from the original Xbox.com Halo timeline (long offline now) which stated in the 2170 entry that "A unified Earth government was formed in the wake of these conflicts." (it wasn't a proper noun back then), with the idea that the Interplanetary War acted as the catalyst for the creation of the UEG. I guess the question is whether the 2075 date in the visual guide is an intentional retcon or perhaps a typo (should it instead be 2175?). --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 23:31, 8 October 2013 (EDT)

2075 - The UEG is formed as an assembly of political leaders and brilliant minds, commissioned by the UN, and tasked with attempting to avert the crises of the next century by solving governmental unification issues of colonizing non-Earth territories.
2170 - The UEG becomes a full-fledged governing entity, controlling all human-occupied territories, particularly including those extrinsic to Earth.
I think this will help Halopedia sort out the timeline regarding the UEG. -ScaleMaster117 (talk) 17:20, 11 October 2013 (EDT)
