After the war, [[Codename: SURGEON]] authored [[Eleventh Hour reports|a series of reports]] detailing the impact of the Covenant War and the postwar status quo. In light of predicted resurgences of Covenant remnants and the Insurrection, as well as new discoveries regarding the Forerunners and their complex relationship with humanity, SURGEON hoped that future historians would view the war as an experience which served to strengthen the resolve of humanity as a whole and prepared them for even worse struggles yet to come.{{Ref/Reuse|EH}} This view echoes SURGEON's own conclusions regarding the Insurrection's impact on humanity's survival in the Covenant War in ''[[Historical/Psychological Analysis of Cole, Preston J.]]''<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''' - ''The Impossible Life and the Possible Death of Preston J.

The end of the war only provided a short period of calm for humanity and the former-Covenant species, before threats both new and old began to emerge. The end of the war had had a profound effect on Thel 'Vadam, whose human-sympathetic policies were ultimately a factor in the beginning of the Blooding Years and the rise of the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]]. [[Shipmaster]] [[Jul 'Mdama]] eventually reunited some of the [[Covenant remnants|disparate factions]] which had surfaced in the wake of the Covenant's dissolution and formed a [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction|new "Covenant" faction]], resuming hostility against humanity. This faction was one of the most prominent players in the [[post-Covenant War conflicts]], which later saw the involvement of reawakened [[Forerunner]] [[Promethean]]s led by the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]. This short-lived conflict would be fought until [[2558|late-2558]], resulting in the destruction of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant shortly after his death at the [[Battle of Kamchatka]], as well as the Didact's defeat at the [[New Phoenix Incident]] a year prior. | The end of the war only provided a short period of calm for humanity and the former-Covenant species, before threats both new and old began to emerge.
