'''2553''' was a year in the 2550s in the 26th century. It was the first year that saw relative peace for [[human]]ity as the [[Covenant]] ceased to exist following its collapse during the [[Great Schism]] and its [[Battle of the Citadel|defeat]] at the end of the [[Human-Covenant War]].<ref>[https://youtu.be/opWf5Sug2-Y?t=8m8s ''Halo Wars 2 GAMEPLAY - E3 2016 Interview (Interview with Kevin Grace)''] - ''"The Covenant are dead"''</ref> The end of the war was formalized with a ceremony in March 2553 with a prior [[Treaty of 2552|treaty]] agreed upon between the [[Unified Earth Government]] and the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] in February 2553. Despite the end of large-scale hostilities and the absence of humanity being threatened with extinction, new factions sprung up in the power vacuum left behind by the ancient empire and new battles followed. 2553 was a year that saw the [[United Nations Space Command]] make major advances in terms of its technological prowess and military capability, despite a lesser reach over the galaxy incurred by the loss of so many colonies and assets during the decades of war. Ex-Covenant societies were faced with the challenge of redefining their purpose in a galaxy that no longer provided them with the rigid structure the hegemony had. Some sought revenge on humans and some on others from the Covenant. Some sought to be left alone and others made grabs for power. And some, such as [[Thel 'Vadam]]'s Swords of Sanghelios, made in-roads with their former enemies for the mutual benefit of all parties. | '''2553''' was a year in the 2550s in the 26th century.
