The lower districts of ''[[High Charity]]'' were built following the signing of the [[Writ of Union]] on a chunk of rock that was ripped off of [[Janjur Qom]] by the [[San'Shyuum]]'s [[Forerunner Dreadnought]]. The Dreadnought was left in the center of the city and was used to power the entirety of the lower districts.<ref>'''[[Halo: Broken Circle]]''', ''page 20''</ref>

In [[2462]], some [[Kig-Yar]] living on ''High Charity'' were forced to relocate due to the growing [[Unggoy]] population. This relocation led to an increase in Kig-Yar infant mortality. In an effort to exact revenge, Kig-Yar [[shipmaster]]s poisoned the Unggoy [[infusion]] supplies on Kig-Yar-operated vessels and in the lower districts of ''High Charity'', which led to the sterilization of contaminated males. When the [[High Council]] and [[Ministry of Concert]]—not wanting to upset the Kig-Yar—did not act on the matter, the Unggoy [[Unggoy Rebellion|rebelled]].<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''pages 150-152''</ref> Unggoy uprisings occurred throughout the lower districts, with the Unggoy not only attacking the Kig-Yar, but all other species. Their sheer amount and tenacity revealed the Unggoy to be very dangerous, even to [[Sangheili]]. Ultimately, the [[Covenant fleet]] partially [[glassed]] [[Balaho]], while the Unggoy in the lower districts were forced to watch. Horrified and unwilling to lose their homeworld, the Unggoy surrendered.<ref>'''[[Halo 2 Anniversary]]''', ''[[Terminal/Halo 2 Anniversary|Terminal 10]]''</ref>
