The Outer Colonies are the Human-colonized planets farthest from Earth and Reach, with colonies founded after. Until the Human-Covenant War, disorder and rebellion were commonplace. The majority of the Outer Colonies were glassed by the Covenant during the war.[1]
History
Beginning in 2525, Harvest was the first world to fall to the Covenant's genocidal wrath. By 2535, with the destruction of Jericho VII, most Outer Colonies had been lost. By 2552, though some Outer Colonies still remained in UNSC hands, most were small and rather insignificant worlds. The significant colonies still under UNSC control lived in constant fear of Covenant invasion. When the Human-Covenant War had ended on March 3, 2553, tensions in the remaining worlds had presumably died out significantly.
