==History==
==History==
Noctus was one of the first cities established after [[Andesia]]'s colonization by biotech associations.{{Ref/Reuse|canonfodder2}} In [[2523]], a [[Insurrection|rebellion]] broke out on Andesia in response to the [[Unified Earth Government]]'s tightening grip on the [[human colonies]] and the excessive control taken by the mega-corporate council that served as the ''de facto'' planetary government. The insurgency eventually reached the heavily defended facilities of [[AMG Transport Dynamics]] located in Noctus.{{Ref/Reuse|canonfodder}}

After nearly a decade of fighting, the conflict was finally ended when the [[Insurrectionists]] on the planet agreed to establish peace with the UEG and [[UNSC]] after they realized that the [[Covenant]] was a greater threat. After the [[Human-Covenant War]], the UNSC trained [[SPARTAN-IV]]s in a [[War Games]] simulation of Noctus to prepare them for a possible resurgence of rebellion in the city as tensions remained high. The UNSC trained these Spartans to secure strategic facilities in the city, similar to what the UNSC did during the rebellion decades earlier.{{Ref/Reuse|canonfodder}}
