The Insurrection claimed millions of lives between the late 2490's and the mid-2520's. The various rebel groups had become extremely adept at creating improvised explosive devices difficult for the UNSC to detect, and therefore stop, and had struck many high profile targets, [[National Holiday|even in orbit]] above [[Reach]] itself. Some opponents of the war believed the simplest solution was to simply give the rebels their autonomy - for the UNSC to pull out, and let the rebels have their independence. However, the value of the colonies made them simply too important to abandon, as it would bankrupt the Inner Colonies. | The Insurrection claimed millions of lives between the late 2490's and the mid-2520's.
