Sanghelios is the homeworld of the Sangheili race. Sanghelios is the fourth planet in a Triple Star System of stars Urs, Fied and Joori. The planet has two Moons called Qikost and Suban. Many Forerunner artifacts and structures exist on the planet, which are the topic of worship, as well as the cause of historical wars between the Sangheili and the San 'Shyuum before the formation of the Covenant .[1]

Background

Sanghelios has a gravity of 1.375 G's, and an average surface temperature of -5C to 56C (23F to 132.8F). Sanghelios is inhabited by approximately 8.132 billion Sangheili. The Bestiarum indicates that Sanghelios is similar to Earth in shape and proportion, though the land masses are more scattered in relation to bodies of water. It's atmosphere consists of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen but also has a reddish hue to it, perhaps indicating large amounts of iron or new rock being made by the core.

The planet is of course home to a huge number of civilian Sangheili numbering over eight billion, as well as a large defense force (possibly a large fleet). Sanghelios was possibly the area of large conflict between Separatist and Loyalist forces.[2] At the end of Halo 3, the Arbiter, Rtas 'Vadum, and the crew of the carrier ship Shadow of Intent depart for Sanghelios to see if it is safe. The Arbiter assures Rtas 'Vadum that they have made it safe. mOHAMED IS GREAT

Etymology

The name "Sanghelios" comes from the Latin sang and the Greek helios meaning "Blood-Sun". It is implied that this may refer to the " blood" of the warrior Elites that live there.
