As revealed in ''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', the San 'Shyuum left their homeworld with only about one thousand in their population due to a brutal civil war on their home planet(and possibly due to their star going supernova). Just like the [[Sangheili-San 'Shyuum War]] that would take place later on, it all began when some San 'Shyuum believed that they should enter into the Forerunner Dreadnought, even though many of the population believed that they couldn't ever touch the ship and should revere it as it was, which was presumed to be trapped in the surface of the planet as though it had crashed there. The two sides fighting in this war were called the Stoics, or the San 'Shyuum who refused to enter and desecrate the Dreadnought, and the San 'Shyuum who wanted to develop new technologies by entering the Dreadnought, called Reformers<ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''</ref>. | As revealed in ''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', the San 'Shyuum left their homeworld with only about one thousand in their population due to a brutal civil war on their home planet(and possibly due to their star going supernova).

At the climax of the Civil War, about a thousand of the Reformers commandeered the Dreadnought, while the Stoics debated what to do, since even their hate could not bring them to destroy the object of their reverence. However, when the Reformers took flight from the planet they tore a chunk out of it. <ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', Page 262</ref> | At the climax of the Civil War, about a thousand of the Reformers commandeered the Dreadnought, while the Stoics debated what to do, since even their hate could not bring them to destroy the object of their reverence.

Even though the Reformers were victorious and had left the Stoics (who sent out communication messages threatening that they would be damned for their digressions to the gods) behind, they realized that they were indeed ruined by the fact that there were only about a thousand that had joined their cause to control the Dreadnought <ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', Page 262</ref>. After leaving the planet they saw that they only had 1,000 aboard and if the species were to continue that they would need to selectively breed to prevent inbreeding. The next step in San 'Shyuum history would be the Sangheili-San 'Shyuum War, but since they had developed a fleet to complement the Dreadnought, the Reformers may have set down on a planet and set up a base of operations there. Perhaps they had even built cities and begun to build [[High Charity]], but whether or not this is true is yet to be known. | Even though the Reformers were victorious and had left the Stoics (who sent out communication messages threatening that they would be damned for their digressions to [[Forerunner|the gods]]) behind, they realized that they were indeed ruined by the fact that there were only about a thousand that had joined their cause to control the Dreadnought <ref>''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', Page 262</ref>.
