Template:City New Phoenix is a metropolitan area of Arizona, a state in the United Republic of North America on Earth.
History
Battle of Earth
- Main article: Battle of Earth (2557)
During his swift attack on Earth in July 2557, the Didact was able to position his flagship, Mantle's Approach, in a high geosynchronous orbit above the city. Despite resistance from the UNSC Home Fleet, he activated the Composer, converting New Phoenix's population into "digital intelligences" and disintegrating their bodies. Spartan John-117 soon destroyed the Composer, however, some of the resulting digital intelligences were sent to Requiem via the Composer's slipspace portal.[1]
Due to the nature of the Composer, the city's infrastructure remained completely intact.[2] New Phoenix was quarantined after the holocaust and remained off-limits for at least six months. John Sullivan, an Office of Naval Intelligence public relations officer, released a statement that the attack was not of Covenant origin.[3]
Trivia

- Gabriel Thorne had family and friends that were killed in New Phoenix. This was the reason he enlisted in the SPARTAN-IV Program.[4]
