Havana

Havana was a city on Earth, located on the Cuban Island, a small stretch of land between the North and South American continents.

In 2552, Havana has evolved into a large inductrial city, with a large district of warehouses and facilities, most notably the Centennial Orbital Elevator, a structure called "Tallo Negro del Maiz", which is "stalk of black corn" in Spanish.

During The Second Battle of Earth, the city was just one of the Covenant's many incursion points. They attacked the city with an army of Brutes and Jackals, reinforced by Wraiths, Banshees, and Scarabs. They captured the elevator and began sending human weapons up it.

SPARTAN-104, SPARTAN-043, and SPARTAN-087 were sent to Havana to take back the elevator, which they suceeded in doing. Havana's status is unknown, but it was under Covenant control at last mention.
