The '''Halo universe''' is the sprawling fictional universe in which all [[Halo|''Halo'' media]] takes place. In the 26th century, [[human]]kind has colonized hundreds of worlds across the [[Orion Arm]] of the [[Milky Way]] galaxy, only to stumble upon a hostile alliance of aliens known as the [[Covenant]]. Motivated by the [[Hierarchs|Prophets']] promises of [[Covenant religion|ascension to godhood]] in the form of the eponymous [[Halo Array|Halos]], a series of ring-shaped superweapons built by the ancient race of the [[Forerunner]]s, the Covenant are bent on humanity's destruction. With the apocalyptic [[Human-Covenant War]] concluded, members of both sides are faced with an uncertain future in a more politically complex environment of numerous different factions and affiliations, while ancient Forerunner entities and technologies continue to involve themselves with the galaxy's affairs. | The '''Halo universe''' is the sprawling fictional universe in which all [[Halo|''Halo'' media]] takes place.
