As we approach the 20th Anniversary of the first Halo game, Halo: Combat Evolved. I thought it would be nice to look back at the events that led up to the start of that game. Explore the species known as the Covenant, why they attacked humanity as well as some of the other battles that took place before the Halo event.

So in todays video we look at the origins of the Covenant and the UNSC and how they began the war known as the Human-Covenant War.
