==History==
==History==
At some point before the twenty-sixth century, [[Human|Humanity]] colonized the planetary system, establishing a precarious [[Human colonies|colony]] on [[Alpha Corvi II]]. At some point, the planet became embroiled in the [[Insurrection]], and was a major stronghold for the [[United Rebel Front]]. During the [[Human-Covenant War]], the [[Master Chief]] and [[Blue Team]] were deployed by the [[UNSC]] to Alpha Corvi II to halt the [[Covenant]]'s efforts to uncover something hidden below the planet's surface.<ref>'''[[Halo: Collateral Damage]]''', ''[[Halo: Collateral Damage Issue 1|Issue 1]]''</ref> With the aid of the local rebel movement Blue Team succeeded in their mission, but the UNSC was unable to stop the Covenant fleet from smashing through the planet's defenses. The UNSC was soon after forced to abandon the colony and with it the entire Alpha Corvi system.<ref>''[[Halo: Collateral Damage]]''', ''[[Halo: Collateral Damage Issue 3|Issue 3]]''</ref>
