Cote d'Azure was a human Outer colony world[Note 1] in the Monaco system.[1]

History[edit]

Human-Covenant war[edit]

In 2529,[1] the Covenant glassed the colony during the Human-Covenant War.[2][Note 2] During a lecture at Rishard University on Arcadia in February 2531, Professor Ellen Anders claimed that the planet had "large-scale engineered features."[3]

List of appearances[edit]

Notes[edit]

  1. ^ Only the Outer Colonies were attacked pre-2536.
  2. ^ The Halo: Reach data pads list Cote d'Azure as among the eight human colonies to have been glassed by 2530. However, as numerous other colonies besides those eight are known to have been glassed prior to 2530, this information is suspect, especially given that the information is from in-universe documentation created by the Assembly, which might not be aware of the other colonies' destruction.
