Template:New Content Long before the arrival of the Flood to the Milky Way galaxy, humanity had achieved a considerable level of sophistication, achieving interstellar travel and colonising planets along the Orion Empire, then a minor sector of the Forerunner's domains. After forty thousand years of expansion, the collective human genus waged war with the biologically-similar Forerunner species, crushed by the Forerunner war machine, reduced to a pre-technological state and exiled to their homeworld, Erde-Tyrene, overseen by The Librarian.

Forced to start again, the collective human genera would try in vain to rebuild their former glory, establishing wooden cities and steam-powered water-borne vessels, though even these efforts would not be enough to halt their technological and cultural collapse to the Tier-7 tribes encountered by the Forerunners during the construction of the portal in east Africa.
