Nuusra
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Nuusra is a territory on the continent of Qivro on Sanghelios.[1]
History
Ancient history
There are structures in Nuusra that were built thousands of years before the Sangheili joined the Covenant. In 2558, Olympia Vale surmised that some of these structures were "ancient history" before the Pyramids were built on Earth.[2]
Battle of Nuusra
At some point before October 27th, 2558, Covenant occupation settled on the area, preparing for an imminent attack against the Swords of Sanghelios who controlled the territory, as well as most of the planet. During the battle, human forces raided some of the local ruins on their way to the Arbiter, battling against multiple waves of Covenant forces. Some of the ancient Sangheili ruins were damaged forever, as both warring sides used them as provisional bases for cover.
Geography
Nuusra is mainly composed of arid and desert environments, being much different than the nearby city of Sunaion, which is a city primarily composed of communities built above water surfaces. The territory is almost entirely covered in rocky valleys and canyons.
