From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Terra Cimmeria is a large region in the southern highlands of Mars.[1]

History[edit]

Human-Covenant War[edit]

Main article: Human-Covenant War

At the end of the Human-Covenant War, its southern dunes had become home to the Unified Earth Government's reserve, a network of refugee camps.[1] Relatively comfortable,[2] the refugees had fled to the reserve from colonies attacked by the Covenant, including Arcadia and Carrow.[1]

In November 2552, Mars was attacked by the Covenant when the High Prophet of Truth's fleets systematically bombarded every colony within the Sol system. Terra Cimmeria and its reserve appeared to have been targeted, with Jeff Gass being covered in soot before he and others would take shelter in bomb shelters located on the reserve.[3]

Postwar[edit]

For a couple years following the war, many refugees still remained in the reserve. The Unified Earth Government would eventually enact a population dispersal effort. Many refugees considered remaining in the Sol system, though many would go to Carrow.[1]
