Talk:Earth

I suggest toning down the stuff about evolution, as it seems as though the Forerunners may have had something to do with it. --Dragonclaws 09:06, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Continents
There arn't 7 continents! see. theres 6! Vixen-girl
 * NA
 * SA (lol it sounds like essay)
 * Africa
 * Oceania
 * Antarctica
 * Eurasia

theres: North America South America Euorpe Asia Africa Astralia Antartica see 7 Voy101

Historically, Antarctica has been described as a continent, but modern scientists know that without its thick ice covering, it would just be a bunch of islands. Oceania isn't a continent, no matter how you slice it.

So there's 6, or 7, depending on if you count Antarctica. @Vixen, I'm pretty sure Asia and Europe still get counted as separate continents, since they're separated by the Ural mountains.

Countrys
can we add the rest of the countrys and the rest of the U.S. states,it seams better to me to have the rest of Earths countrys on it's page Voy101

Greece
Does anyone know what happens to Greece in Halo? I'm Greek and I play Halo so I'm just curious. Mr.X


 * As far as I know, it's still there. The Covenant didn't really hit Europe. --Dragonc laws (talk ) 19:18, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

They might have actually hit every continent pretty hard. Bungie, unfortunately, isn't releasing any real information about the status of Earth beyond Kenya. -LiquidNazgul

Population
isn't it strange for Earth in the 26th century has only 200 million while Earth now in real life has over 7 BILLION,shouldn't Earth have at least 1 billion on it,even with the colonistion to get some of the humans off of the over populated earth Voy101


 * You're forgetting the effects of the Covenant invasion. They destroyed Australia, and we know they were invading the Americas and elsewhere. Not to mention the glassing of Africa to prevent the spread of the Flood. There was also a draft, so most everyone was sent out against the Covenant. --Dragonc laws (talk ) 19:14, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

No, the population must be well over 10 billion. 200 million is ridiculous. Even Japan today has 130 million people (https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/ja.html#People), and it's just a tiny fraction of the world's surface area.

Even if we take out Africa and Australia, the Earth would still have a population in the billions.

And even the most radical draft possible would not take out 99% of the population... There wouldn't be enough people to support the army/navy. --CaptainZoidberg 21:58, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

But in the Section in the Beastiarum about humans it says that humanity was reduced to around 200 million from the war and bombardment of earth. JesseZinVT 23:40, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

New wiki video tool
I thought it would be nice to use this feature to make a collaborative video about Earth. I started a video and placed it on the page, looking for people who will conitrbute and edit it. ChrisF 08:29, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
